Soon: (No) more than a club (left in the ESL).
European Super League
- Thread starter esmufc07
- Start date
The Utd and liverpool statements were short with a bitter undertone. Yanks are pissed.
It's all over, now.
Football is run so badly, it makes me furious. They have even managed to make UEFA and FIFA look like the good guys, which is not easy to do at all.
While all this was happening, the CL changes which make it very close to a super league anyway, have been approved. 100 more games. The Carabao Cup will end up being entirely for reserves.
Then we can all look forward to the continued shocking rollout of VAR and the world cup in fecking Qatar.
Are Spurs saying nothing, hoping nobody will notice they’re still part of the Super League?
It’s incredible that they tried to pull this off behind closed doors, without at least consulting any of the playing staff or managers.
The leeches are fuming, you can smell it even through that twitter announcement. Absolutely devastated.
Those FSG Yanks oversaw Liverpool reclaiming the title after 3 decades but are now facing calls for them to leave the club. How do you even screw up so badly?
@BeforeKeanetherewasRobson To be fair, Spurs' statement is probably one of the more shameless ones:
Levy's basically saying that he liked the idea of the SL and wasn't expecting the negative response.

How do you know what they did/said? Apparently plenty going on behind closed doors.
It was only 48 hours and at least Shaw posted before clubs changed their mind.
KdB, Sterling getting "oooh, you're great" tweets and posted after news broke City/Chelsea likely to pull out.
Absolutely buzzing over this.
Roll on tomorrow and proper football again without this circus casting its ugly shadow over proceedings.
Oh... and up the Villa!

I can just picture how excited they were to surprise the fans with this great news of the ESL.
“You know what Ed, the fans are gonna be so stoked for this”
“I agree Joel, it’s about time we gave back to the football community”
Yeah, the new version of the CL looks like an absolute abomination.
Great day, now to get rid of the greedy owners especially the American ones.
Definitely
More public sentiment entrenchment then?
Exactly my thought.
Have these assholes ever explained how the rest of the football world was gonna benefit from this too ?
Levy will cry tonight, I think.
Next up should be the CL changes. I think I've heard that they've now provisioned some clubs can get in just on merit of having a good record and not necessarily needing to qualify? If that's true it deserves a similar reaction to the super league.
What a crazy couple of days this was.
Ding dong the switch is dead.
No contrition, no acknowledgement of the scale of this scandal. A one sentence statement. We must, must, must get them out somehow.
Today has been a great day. Never estimate the power of the fans.
This is next level of 'amateurish' from some of the biggest clubs in the world. Irony of ironies, club that comes out looking good from this is the biggest sugar daddy of them all. Go figure.....
Finally.
They should sell up and get the hell out.
Weren't Chelsea one of the first of the PL to reportedly jump ship, why are they the last to put out a statement?
And Stoke City get all the free advertisment.
They've tweeted as well. Talking about wanting to be part of the process or whatever. Said sorry for the anxiety it caused. Posted earlier in this thread.
Florentino on the Zoom meeting explaining how it can still work...
This is now dead thank goodness. Barcelona are fecked, Real will find 200 million from somewhere.
Total equivalence.
Probably they couldn't get hold of Roman.
Cut from the same cloth.
