The Super League | FA + PL: New Charter & Fines | UEFA: Settlement

[NorCalBlue]

Let’s not forget that the new Champions League format is utterly shit and saves places for non qualified ‘elite’ teams.

Quite. Hopefully some of this backlash can spill over onto that and get them to rethink the new format.

 

[manimanc]

Yep.

Duncan Castles (I know...) has referred to him as the de facto prime minister of Abu Dhabi. So he's likely a decent mover and shaker.

The best I’ve seen in action and I’ve met some business and world leaders who thought they were but are clowns by comparison

 

[Mayor West]

Really glad that City have pulled out of this shit, still leaves a bad taste in your mouth though, a full explanation and apology is needed.

Not to me its doesnt. We are out, that's all that matters and that's all I care about. I'll move on very easily from this

 

[Franny's toilet roll]

faster moving than Line of Duty, but no clever sub plots IMO

 

[Chak19]

Perez saying they will create another Man City and Chelsea haha.

 

[malg]

My wife has the huff.
Says I'm ignoring her and what's so important on my phone.
I told her football stuff.
Bigger huff now.

Mine is making toast. Top wife.

 

[Winchester]

No that was The Sun.

I heard the Peckham Echo

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Now its over to UEFA and challenge the new reformed CL and get the protectionism of the cartel clubs removed

Ceferin you now the score now, surely

 

[Metal Biker]

That's because you want to believe it.

City have known for months what they have been battling against.

Ask yourself who has benefited the most from this last 48 hours, who has been removed from positions of power?

We are owned by people who do political strategy for a day job, do you think they aren't prepared to take a bloody nose to achieve their objectives?

We signed up to the rules of FFP, even though we didn't agree with them.

We took a pinch and decided to pay the fine to play the long game.

We did back deals with Platini and Infantino.

Cerefin has been an ally of City for a good length of time.

If you don't believe City aren't capable of doing some very deep shit, then I can't persuade otherwise.

y'all couldn't have said sumthin' sooner? ;)

Didn' t post a cryptic song or nuthin' !

 

[ancoats]

am hearing the glazers are putting united up for sale ebay ? sold as seen

 

[xgorton]

Only four of the Super 6 left: the three red shite clubs and Spurs.

Brraz finished fifth. rags, dippers, spuds and Arse.


...and Spurs have just

3 Red Yankee clubs.

 

[swinton blue]

Fair fucks to Carragher and Neville. Other night I thought they were just rambling to no effect but they kept at it.

Don't say that !!!
I bet them two dicks think they have saved football

 

[marco]

So why does an article on our website say we did?

read citys exit statement 'lets call it that' and if it doesnt twig maybe read again

 

[superseiyan]

Serious question--anyone work in PR or "brand reputation" for work? The merits and moral judgement of all this aside, purely from a business strategy standpoint, how do several multi-billion dollar entities roll our like this? Very strange. And why the absolute rush, were they trying to preempt some UEFA reforms? Do none of the 12 owners employ chief press officers or experts in this sort of thing?

 

[Jazzman]

Worked out well really

Senior management will probably go at Liverpool and United possibly Spurs

Domestic and European rivals on the hook financially

Cartels influence gone at UEFA

Laws brought forward to stop it potentially happening ever again

Certainly looks like a good time to say fuck you to the cartel clubs. A dream

 

[Lkzerinho]

For my breaking bad fans, this what Khaldoon did

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Back to the Haaland thread

 

[Bluesince1979]

It's absolute garbage that's why. There is absolutely no way we would have joined if this was our intention. We would have just let them go ahead and do it and destroy themselves whilst coming out of it smelling of roses. The outcome would have been exactly the same so why drag our own name through the mud?

This. We even quoted glazier on the club fuckin website

itll take me some time to fully forgive. Not buying this maters stroke bull shit at all

 

[St.Pauli support]

It was a 107 earlier...backtracking like mad now

Where's The Great Escape theme?
