The whole situation is shit.
It is always the fans who suffer in this, I detest the Glazers, but I also hate UEFA, FIFA etc. as they are part of the problem.

Does no one understand the precarious position that all these players and managers are in?? It's completely different to that, pretty different set of players as well.
Sevilla announced they're not joining The Super League and have no interest in doing so

It's in a thread like this it becomes very apparent who is just here for the glory days and doesn't understand why this is such a drastic alteration of the concept of footie competition that predates basically even all existing domestic leagues.
Of course, they love winning the Europa league too much
Hell the feck, NO!!! #WoodwardOut #GlazersGone
i would also like to take this opportunity to say i won’t be joining the super league.
Seville got an invite?
Bruno has shared Podence's post on IG with the caption "Dreams can't be buy"
I guess that's something.
It does come across a bit rich that English football, it's institutions and leading figures suddenly have morals.
I am not holding my breath for him to speak out though. I dont know why Klopp gets so much hate, I read the interview nad felt he was very outspoken. Kudos to him
You honestly don't seem to understand the whole point of football.
It will be fun to see a bunch of divers, moaners and crybabies be part of an "Elite" group. But I digress
People expecting the players and managers to take a stand as if they’re the paragons of justice and fairness. A sport in which they are paid astronomical sums to earn moves which pay them even more. Their whole lives revolve around money - does anyone seriously think they’re going to act against their own interests?
It’s the football fans that are going to lose out. The clubs, managers and players that get to be a part of this elitist secret club are going to be absolutely loving it.

You don't bite a hand which feeds you.
Instagram posts and tweets are about as much as the players will do. Maybe the occasional outspoken interview. I don't think they will band together like Neville and Carragher are suggesting.
It doesn't matter what he feels. Because club would give him an official directive on what to say.
What the actual feck. Was watching a local TV show and the pundits completely ignored the fact that these clubs have removed merit out of the equation by automatic qualification.
I'm not kidding, they mentioned this aspect zero times. It was the usual UEFA bashing, criticism towards Neville and other ex-footballers.

Spurs are in it, so you'll get your wish

apart from its literally the opposite of monopolising.
The league itself might be a semi-closed shop for 12-15 places being held by the founders of the league with the remaining being invitational, but it doesn't prevent other competitions from being played. The attempts to kill it by UEFA are the the use of a monopoly to control revenue streams.
Its funny that people are saying 'Earn it' as a slogan against it, when that isn't the point, the clubs have a better offer so are declining to accept their qualification to one competition in favour of the better offer.
We might not like that, or would prefer it didn't happen but they should have the right to do it.

Who opposed those buy outs back then?
I'm sure that also was said to those who welcomed the PL over the first division and the CL over the European Cup.
There is an entitlement that I think runs incredibly deep within a certain sub-section of our support, not the majority mind, but minority are extremely vocal. I'm thankful I've lived through the good times at the club, but we won leagues and European competition because of merit, not because we thought we deserved to be there as a fait accompli.

Get a grip you babbling buffoon. Made a mess of most of your arguments. You don’t like him and none of us give a feck, the end.
I still can't believe it involves Spurs either.

. Next few days i expect 100 tweets like this. From non invited clubs....Neither of these actually restricted opportunities for other clubs.
Oh no.. not the famous Spion Kop banners...
Unfortunately one lead to the other.
In the late 80s while everyone was busy investing on players we invested wisely. We went on building a great youth academy, a fantastic scouting net, we hired visionaries both in terms of coaching and business people etc. That made us untouchable throughout the 90s both in terms of football and financially wise. Arsenal would occasionally nick a league title or two but it was more of us losing it (ie ignoring a position that needs to be strengthened etc).
Football fans at rival clubs wanted to break that monopoly but they lacked the money to do so. Roman and the Mansours were the answer to that. These people would go own pumping millions into what were considered hopeless clubs which then gave them an edge over us. To make matter worse we fell victim to our success as the Glazers saw United as a way to make a quick buck.
The result to all of that is this mess ie clubs owned by owners who only care about money
If the EPL wanted to stop this then they should have stopped clubs from being bought by owners who either saw the clubs as cash cows or who wanted to buy success.
Apparently us, arsenal, city, Madrid and chelsea will get thrown out of this years CL and Europa league by Friday this week.
Have a feeling Klopp will step down after this season especially if they finish outside the top 4.
Cheers, bro.
Nev's come along way in 18 months, regarding people wanting the Glazers to sell the club. I give him that.

Why is that the fault of the Oil clubs? Arsenal is the 3rd most successful team in England. Chelsea and City's ascension didn't stop them from buying players. Just like United capitalizing on the global explosion of the game in the 90's didn't stop other teams from being succesfull.
Would be surprised if they can legally do this, but we'll find out soon enough.
