Or maybe you could simply decide to do something against ownership like this and stop inflating prices for everyone, how about that?
Not to mention that the ESL was never supposed to stop the dirty money, it would have only exaggerated the problem.

Mate, I've been having an existential crisis since Sunday!
I knew I was not alone....
This, it's embarrassing to see him come alive after the club has finally being buried by the owners.
right on, mate.
Is not about the competition anymore. I suspect monetary compensation of contractual obligations for the clubs that withdrew
But i hope he fails miserably. Dont get me wrong
Hey everybody!
Let's laugh at Liverpool and Chelsea dropping points!!!
There was actual football this week??
Definitley. What an absolute shit show.
UEFA has already proven it can't do anything about money in football. For every regulation they put up, there are a 1000 ways to get around them. Business people are smart about figuring out workarounds, that's what they get paid for. And regulation can't keep up pace with the trickery that private companies can come up with.
I will wager now that this is a greenlight for the Newcastle take over and we'll be complaining about them in 2-3 years and in 10 years they will be at the level of a PSG or City.
Maybe this enough of a shock for UEFA that they'll do something serious, but I very much doubt they have it in them.
Yeah, when people in the media talk about the clandestine meetings to create the super league, in actual fact it was more like that scene in Sunderland til I die where the owner is negotiating buying Will Greg.
Is this going to end up being Real Madrid & Barcelona playing each other over and over again?
I was there. Oxford road all the way to Picadilly was rocking
I should have savored it moreBut didn't you know? The world only cares about El Classico.
It was a joke.
I was thinking about this before. How is possible that an agreement is broken so easily without further consequences? The lawyers must have prepared some very serious compensations for that case. It's either that, or what has happened was a completely unpredictable scenario that has caught everyone by surprise.
I played a ton of FIFA with friends in college and after we got bored of 3-4 games of Madrid-Barca or United-Chelsea, we'd switch to some 70- or 60-rated teams. Surely the SL would have led to the same problem of repetition.
A victory for football - the blowback was enormous, very happy to see all 6 pull out.
Perez isn't giving up!
I seriously don't know what else they can do to make this a reality.
Figured it might be.
Some Italian news:
I think they never expected the fans, the media, the Governments, and even Prince William to get involved so strongly. Once the Governments got involved the clubs that left can say it is void ab initio and leave without any compensations.
What a day this has been so far, especially when I was fearing the worse a couple of days back.
ESL gone - Check
Woody gone - Check
Glazers gone - In progress

Big respect for Chelsea and City starting this domino effect. We were never going to withdraw otherwise

Invite MLS team? Inter Miami sounds almost like Inter Milan?

I do not think a Spanish court can issue anything on the British clubs anymore.
Be piss funny when Leicester, Everton, Leeds, West Ham, Wolves and Southampton take the 6 spots instead.
Don't think any of the PL clubs are going to touch the poisoned chalice for some time now
What a complete farce this thing has been. Shows just how out of touch these total morons who run these clubs are. It would be amazing if the 50+1 rule could somehow come in off the back of this. If it's ever going to happen now is the time with this momentum.
Feck off Woodward you rat! Feck off Glazer scum!

Nah, this has killed the idea for 20 years minimum.
Why does he keep saying the current system doesn't work? What doesn't work? Spending 150m on Dembele, Coutinho, Griezmann etc and failing constantly? Giving players 500k a week when you can't afford to do it? No shit. The clubs that are in trouble are the clubs that were out of control like Barca, Madrid and Juve. They are the ones who will be fecked and they are the ones who can't survive. Let them die. feck them.
I’m proud of every one of you here and all clubs supporters across the country.
Today we are all United.
Today we are all United.
Exactly. It doesn't work only because Barca and Real have terrible accountants.
To be fair all I did was shitpost
Yep, City and psg are a big reason why this shitstorm happened.
But a brittish court can. Or you think only brittish entities can sue brittish entities?
And a fine job you did too mate
I dunno. They tried to pull the same shit as everyone else.
I feel like the clubs that jumped from the doomed project earliest are just trying to earn a bit of good will from doing so. They're as complicit in this whole disaster as every other club involved.
Football people are often amateurish despite the size of their business. At the end of the day, they are just a massive size SME. It's very possible they were not that good.
