Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted April 19, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted April 19, 2021 On a more serious note, if UEFA decide that they want to expunge the clubs that are part of the ESL from all their competitions post the meeting today does that mean PSG are going to be the CL winners for this season?

Rick Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Genuinely gonna become a Werder or Monchengladbach fan after the dust settles here. Also, Rooney is a fat prick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Maybe they're underrating the general levels of football fatigue that a lot of fans feel. People have been markedly less interested in the game since Covid,. It seems like the ESL group look at that as pent-up demand that's waiting to be exploited - but it could just be a that a lot of people have lost interest, and the Super League will just aggravate that.

Guest Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Apparently the government will put a massive tax on the clubs and withdraw support for games which will make it very difficult. Like I said the players can stop it. If they refuse to play it cant happen. They have enough money if they get sacked they will be ok. If they dont then they dint care about the fans and they are cunts that dont deserve our support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Coma+ Posted April 19, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted April 19, 2021 A comment or two on here pointed to Asian and American fans as in favor of this type of league. For me, that's not the case at all. I've had my fill of closed-shop leagues and watching various local teams languish season after season when there's nothing left to play for before the season even starts. I'm speaking of the NBA, MLB, NFL, and MLS. Yes, the teams in those leagues rake in the cash, but the product is sterile and for a fan of a middling city in the USA (Cincinnati, who isn't good at anything right now) the prospect of European football, which is the only sport I follow anymore, going down that path is all the more depressing.

Whiskey Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 If the Top 6 left Leicester would dominate for a little while, they're the best run club in the top flight and have all the foundations to challenge the current lot, nevermind a reduced league.

El Profesor Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I still can't get my head around the Premier League Top 6 agreeing to this monstruosity. I mean, in a sense it's a clear move from continental clubs, like Real Madrid and Barcelona, to retain their position of power in a moment that the balance is heavily shiftting towards Premier League. It's also a move against Premier League hegemony. Those six clubs are playing the hand of Florentino and Agnelli for some quick cash, alienating their fanbases in the process. It's very short-sighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very short-sighted. They saw the forecasted figures and they couldn't say no. Sacrificing the good of football as a result. Football clubs ownership are to blame, but the finger should be directly pointed at those that implemented the "Super League". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
