Please let me see Perez's face right now, I want it in my fecking veins.

 

[Castia]

Good to see and hope others follow. Now if turns out we are the actual ring leaders to this thing with Joel Glazer being the vice chairman of this super league, punishing Manchester United would be much easier than punishing the 6 teams which makes me a bit worried.

This thing could turn horribly wrong for us very quick.

Yup we’re in too deep, got a feeling we’re getting fecking shafted and rightly so.

A positive could be this could well be the thing that finally gets the glazers out of football.

 

[Tincanalley]

Hilarious. Why would you ever sign up to something like this only to back out after a couple of days. Pathetic. I'm not complaining, but find it laughable. Just what were they thinking.

As for us, we are in too deep. We will be sanctioned in some way I reckon. Enough to oust the glazers? One can dream.

Don’t give us hope

 

[matt10000]

Great news well done Chelsea fans

 

[Annihilate Now!]

The key word here is "Request", very worrying.

With Cities lawyers I doubt they'll be worried

 

[utdalltheway]

There's going to be a lot of egg now of Glazer faces. Go on build your football Disneyland you clowns.

fckin right. American owners have no business with PL clubs. fcuk off!

 

[Swedish_Plumber]

Even if this crumbles we should all be out for blood. Get these greedy feckers out of football.

 

[charlenefan]

We're in it until the end, our owner is literally the vice chairman of the ESL. They've done irreversible damage to our name now

 

[UnofficialDevil]

No respect to them is due at all. The oil clubs were always going to be the first to go because they're vanity projects, not a strip mining operation.

We always knew the likes of the Glazers and Kroenke were the biggest parasites.

They've got my respect for pulling out.

 

[bosnian_red]

Brilliant news. Now I hope the government goes full force and forces through 50+1 to ensure this can never, ever happen again. feck these cnuts. These cnut, greedy, selfish owners have overplayed their hands and now they're about to lose a big part of their cash cows because they they wanted to be more greedy.

 

[littlepeasoup]

This will leave a bitter taste in the mouth for years. No one should forget this.

 

[croadyman]

If it gets disbanded we'll be the ones to go "Okay, I guess we can't do this alone so..."

Yeah and guess who will still be poisoning things at the top of this club

 

[SER19]

Absolutely...hopefully no fecker will do business with the little urchin.

This needs to be remembered. That if this mess collapses our fans don't just forget. This man embarrassed the club with his conniving snake behavior and showed two middle fingers to our fans and history

 

[Eendracht maakt macht]

Kinda feels like someone decided not to rob my house.

I'm glad but there's no credit to be given and what the feck were you even considering it for?

Great post

Get out and riot like the Chelsea fans my fellow lads!!
It's now or too late.

Indeed

We're stuck with these loons dragging the club's name through the mud sadly

City as well

Get in and well done to the Chelsea fans!

This is gonna fall so hard for the ring leaders and I hope it doesn't all get swept under the rug, people need to be held accountable for this!

 

[The Firestarter]

Looking forward to Flo trash talking Rom....yeah never

 

[duffer]

Chelsea and City will end up looking better than the rest at least, United and Liverpool have no room to move, it's been pretty cpear that us, them, Real, Barca and Juve are at the head of the snake.

Barely, if at all.

I certainly won't think any better of them.

 

[matt10000]

We should get out and then the Glazers should get out.

 

[Suedesi]

Roman Abramovich - the saviour of English football...

I'm glad but there's no credit to be given and what the feck were you even considering it for?

Yeah I have no interest in painting Chelsea as the good guys. Clusterfeck of a decision and it'll be a stain on the club's reputation for a long time but I'm fecking glad they've decided to cut ties before too much damage was done.

 

[Infestissumam]

unraveling quickly, good to see. Florentino Perez, savior of football, won't be happy.

 

[iKnowNothing]

Great news!

Also, I can’t help but think what made someone at Chelsea agree to this in the first place? Will head(s) roll and some executive gets sacked as a result?

 

[Gasolin]

We probably are, aren’t we? It’s most likely us, Madrid, Barca, and Arsenal who are the most ardent on this nonsense.

They say it's United, Real and Juventus that are driving this so we will be the last to leave. But we need Chelsea and City to leave and put a doubt into all the other English clubs. Including Liverpool, I think they could leave as well with Klopp being much more vocal internally.

 

[VorZakone]

Let's see the Glazers, Kroenke and FSG Group's reactions now.

 

[Berbasbullet]

Yes!!!!!! Massive respect to both

The two clubs who don’t need the cash are the first to leave, what a shock. No respect, they’re as filthy as the rest.

But also, good decision from the pair of them!

 

[kouroux]

feck Chelsea.

 

[Acole9]

Well done Chelsea.

 

[Dobba]

We should get out and then the Glazers should get out.

And then we all shag supermodels, whilst watching our lottery numbers be drawn.

 

[Pow]

fecking go Chelsea now I hope you batter Brighton 10 - 0

 

[The Firestarter]

Surely the most epic miscalculation in the world of sport and even business

RIP Super league - you lasted 1 day.

 

[OverratedOpinion]

United will pull out last, this might just serve to get the media actively talking about what scumbags the Glazer's are.

If so it is almost worthwhile. Manchester United did not sign up for a Super League, Joel Glazer and Ed Wooodward did.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Yes!!!!!! Massive respect to both

I guess, but it's a bit like respecting a hitman for cornering his target and then not pulling the trigger.

Already looks like city are leaving

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Only if we dig our heels in. If everyone packs up and leaves there's shit on everyone's shoes. However I do think you're right. We are part of the 'organisers'.

 

[atkar83]

We're the baddies now aren't we? I understand it was ownership and not the players/coaches/etc, but how did they think they would sell it even? Yeah we make money while hundreds of teams in the FA employing 10s of thousands of people would be at the brink. This hurts.
