Honest question: Gary has complained about Old Trafford before as well, it is nothing new. In fact a quick google search would have solved that for you.
My question is: Why do you spend time critcizing people who come out, LOUD, against this?
Is it that you support the league? What exactly does attacking dissenting voices do here? The point you are trying to make is not even factual, it's incorrect and at worst a deliberate lie.
So tell me. What is up with all of this?
While I don't agree with this because there is no form of promotion relegation I really can't understand the you'll get bored of watch the same teams play every year when for the most part that is what happens in the EPL.
The fact that the ESL has significantly more games than the ECL makes me think that they want the teams to pull out of their domestic leagues long term. It’s close to x2 the amount of CL games. Playing close to 70 games would be crazy.
If that happened , which it wouldn't, they'd play it in the US or Asia. It's the TV rights that are going to pay for this and football fans all over the world would pay to watch the best/best supported/richest 20 clubs in Europe playing each other.
I honestly feel you're just trolling people at this point for a reaction. The Premier League and Champions League were basically rebrandings/format changes of existing competitions. Not a completely new start-up that is invite only and has no connection to the previous competition.
How can UEFA ban players from internationally?
take Kane for example, and suppose he doesn’t want to play in the SL.
Spurs might sell him, but only teams in the SL have the funds to pay £100m. So he’s stuck. Whatever the morality of the clubs decisions - players shouldn’t be punished.

They did, but that made sense as the European Cup was a UEFA creation. The Champions League was just a rebranded and reformatted European Cup from UEFA.
This would be akin to England taking their Olympic gold medals and proclaiming that they have more than one FIFA World Cup. They don't (which is a good thing). The Super League has 0 connections with UEFA. If anything, it opposes everything UEFA stands with, so for Real Madrid to take the successes from a UEFA tournament seems pretty hilarious.
This is different since all clubs compete (theoretically) for the CL and had competed for the predecessor
And that's the handful of clowns who were dancing at the thought of starting a competition with Madrid Barca etc at level pegging instead of having to chase their trophy count getting ended.
Respect for having the patience. That dude must surely be a troll.
I agree.
CL was arranged by UEFA, the same as the European Cup. They do changed a lot of thing over the year, but they don't just give a club a guaranteed spot regardless.
This ESL is completely different. Why counting UEFA's trophies?
They run the Euros so they can exclude players who have played in unlicensed breakaway competitions. I think FIFA have final say over the World Cup.
Comedy.
Yeah, I mean you get the odd new team popping up but looking at the likely teams to get promoted this year: Norwich, Watford, and possibly one of Swansea and Bournemouth.
But so is the Super League, especially if UEFA and FIFA are joined by the national associations. Imagine no PL football, no matches for your national team. No CL or EL. Who would want to play for Manchester United?
I put my money on the Super League will never happen. The owners of a few football clubs cannot possible fight the whole world.
yes. the odd dissenting comment does not a stance make.
Dunno if this has been posted already. Great quote "An attack by 6 wealthy families on the integrity of our sport".
I'm going to host a new grass court Tennis tournament. All Wimbledon titles will carry over to it.
The Champions League will still exist though in this instance. This move just devalues it more.
Since it is effectively a replacement for the Champions League, where you rarely face the same teams over and over, this point is garbage. Plus, at least Man Utd vs Real Madrid in the Champions League would be a high stakes game since you have the jeopardy of being knocked out. In the ESL, if Utd are 8th and Real Madrid 6th then it's a nothing game, a friendly.
And in the Premier League you aren't facing the same teams either. The Premier League now is very different to what it was 15 years ago, which was very different to what it was when it began.
Right, but the Super League breaks out of all of those traditional structures and football pyramids. The Premier League was still part of the English footballing ladder, still recognised by the English FA, and still interacted with the EFL leagues via promotion/relegation and the League Cup. As I stated in my earlier response:
This is exactly what we should expect. These clubs are owned by business people for the sole reason of making money. What happens when Facebook sees a threat to its p
I'll bet this goes through, I'll bet that fans follow, I'll bet the money follows and I'll bet that the gaping chasm between teams gets larger and larger.
The ones that pay for it are the feeder clubs that "big" clubs stand on. They will suffer the most as has always and will always be the case until the fans own their own football clubs.
I agree, its been a slow bleed out of the purity of the game through greed and commercialism.

Liverpool having only one League title has a nice ring to it.
Its because opinions are only valid if you have been 100% consistent on everything for your entire life. Everyone knows that.
Not the same at all.
Yeah.... long-term they will play only in that league.
I don't think any here have the answer. I guess, since players contract would require registration to UEFA, FIFA, perhaps if the players themselves doesn't want ESL, there would be a way to terminate the contract. There is still PSG, Bayern that is not confirmed for ESL that can still afford great expensive player especially on a free.
The ESL is an entirely seperate league from the CL, whereas the PL is simply a conversion of the old division one format.
Not really the same thing.
Yeah definitely.
It would be unfeasable to play
20-30 USL games
38 PL games
5-10 Carabao/FA Cup games.
Just far too many games.
When you're the Chairman of the entire entity you can effectively do as you wish.
Give it a year and all the other club owners will be visiting Don Perez to make a request on the day of his daughter's wedding.
Of course they can legally do it, its UEFAs competition. The 12 clubs withdrew from the ECA which is them giving notice on their membership of UEFA anyway.
