This is being backed by Fifa isnt it?Good luck getting enough players from every country.

There’s no global appeal PL (Of which I’m part of), but there’s still 80 odd other clubs all with their own history and followings that would beg to differ. I might even adopt a new club in English football if the top six clear out.There is no PL without these clubs there’s not much they can do
yeah and the UEFA execs are more corrupt and just as greedy as the clubs involved.I suspect it's all brinkmanship. The big clubs just want a bigger slice of the CL pie.
A strong, strong statement has been madeRidiculous idea that seeks to maintain the power in the very few. Take this season as an example, teams like Liverpool & Arsenal who have no chance of winning the title could just chill for half the PL season as their games are meaningless & they’d still get into this competition. What’s the point of competing in the PL if you know half way through, you’re not going to win the title?!
Hopefully FIFA bans the clubs involved & tells players it cannot represent national teams if they’re playing for such clubs.
Good luck selling the next round of PL TV rights without those 6 clubs.Happy for @Cal?, He's wanted this for 12 years
Hopefully if this happens the national leagues issue a notice of excommunication. If you go to this nonsense then when you come back, you go to the Isthmian league equivalent of your country and work your way back up. This time with strict salary and squad caps.
It's more if you can't beat them join them. Not like city and Chelsea aren't included in this.The only thing making me smile in all this is the irony of Liverpool and United fans claiming City and Chelsea etc have killed football for years when in the end its actually them and their American owners who have.
Being paid 500k a week or play occasionally for your country.UEFA and FIFA could also ban every player from all international games.
Why on earth would you be for this?Good luck selling the next round of PL TV rights without those 6 clubs.

Is it? Or I’m I reading it wrong.This is being backed by Fifa isnt it?
Looks like its not.Is it? Or I’m I reading it wrong.
That's a proper response. I have no doubt the clubs involved have more than sufficient legal advice which will have assured them they can't be banned. Alternatively, UEFA have fallen for a massive WUM that even @Hectic would be proud of.Tweet

Clearly a bad idea but for UEFA to talk of self interest is hypocrisy at best!Tweet

The irony is in them trying to catch up with oil money any way they canThe only thing making me smile in all this is the irony of Liverpool and United fans claiming City and Chelsea etc have killed football for years when in the end its actually them and their American owners who have.
Because United have essentially been subsidizing all the other PL clubs for decades due to the unfair EPL money split.Why on earth would you be for this?
I mean, the drafting of the statement is more fitting of a triggered forum poster rather than a footballing institution.That's a proper response. I have no doubt the clubs involved have more than sufficient legal advice which will have assured them they can't be banned.

True, it genuinely reads like the responses to one of Glaston's posts.I mean, the drafting of the statement is more fitting of a triggered forum poster rather than a footballing institution.
Why would you support the breakup of the PL?Good luck selling the next round of PL TV rights without those 6 clubs.
Why do you feel that impacts you as a fan and why do you feel the EL Superleague would be better?Because United have essentially been subsidizing all the other PL clubs for decades due to the unfair EPL money split.
This is the worst thing about this, losing the CL tuneThey better find a way to get the Champions League theme tune.
United will more than likely be one of the main drivers of thisDeath knell of football as we knew (and loved) it if this goes ahead. Without being too dramatic, have to say I'm really, really disappointed and saddened if United come out in support of it.
It's supposed to replace the CL, not replace the PL.Why would you support the breakup of the PL?
Nope.This is being backed by Fifa isnt it?
Because without it, United would essentially be like Bayern strolling to the league 9 times out of 10. I can see why this would appeal to some (not me personally) - the same people who clock games on the easiest setting, or save before every game on FM in case they lose.Why do you feel that impacts you as a fan and why do you feel the EL Superleague would be better?
So let’s have a boring league like La Liga then? United make enough money without taking more from the competition. The club has enough advantages to most of the league.Because United have essentially been subsidizing all the other PL clubs for decades due to the unfair EPL money split.
