Do people care about the nations league? This will be the next nations league for me. I won't even know who won.
If you look close enough you’ll probably find some nepotism that will change your mind.I can understand local fans being angry. They won't be able to afford to watch all the away games as they used to be. However our rival teams should just shut up really. What had the likes of Burnley, Stoke and co had done to improve the EPL entertainment thus boosting the very revenue these clubs do not want to lose? Time and time again, the big clubs are facing teams who play catenaccio/rugby style turning games into a frigging bore fest. Sure United are being greedy on this matter. However the same can be said about the small/mid sized clubs who would rather shit on entertainment just to keep on piggy banking on the revenue generated by others.

I think that’s what the clubs are going to receive, subscriptions to the TV broadcasts are likely to be a lot less than that for individual customers.300 mio pounds as a starter bonus, and guaranteed 125 min pounds a year is crazy money. Who is going to pay? The fans - sorry, the customers. No way I can afford / will pay to watch that shit.
So, throwing away history is ok? Taking even bigger step from what football is ment is ok? Understand.I can understand local fans being angry.

It's easier said than done. The FA and Premier League loss of quality by banning top clubs and players will ultimately be the end of its pull.I want the FA/Premier League to tell the clubs that they will be thrown out of the English football system entirely if they do this.
We did.United hasn't made any official statement about this?
Neville and Carragher will be the first to sign up! An extra zero on their payslips no doubtThe angry pundits frothing will work for the broadcasters if the Super League if this gets the go-ahead. Mark my words.
Obviously. Sky and BT are already bidding for telecast rights probably. While they allow all pundits to take it all out on their channelsThe angry pundits frothing will work for the broadcasters if the Super League if this gets the go-ahead. Mark my words.
If they don't nip this in the bud now they'll lose the 6 clubs further down the line anyway when the inevitable expansion of the Super League happens. I hear people talking about points deductions and relegations. No, that's short termist and not strong enough. They need to know they'll be thrown out.It's easier said than done.

Would you feel better if PL says you have automatically forfeited all coming games till end of season.We’re supposed to play Leeds on Monday and it feels so pointless now.
I am not saying that. I said it in previous posts that this is a step too far. That particular post tackled the greed coming from the other side.So, throwing away history is ok? Taking even bigger step from what football is ment is ok? Understand.
I don’t think I’d care. We won’t be playing in next seasons Champions League regardless of what happens now.Would you feel better if PL says you have automatically forfeited all coming games till end of season.
It will be the same against Inter or AC Milan. Italian clubs are very bad.These days you know that if we're playing against a small side then we'll spent the next 90 minutes trying to break down a 10 men defence. Its frigging boring. We might still face similar clubs but football had changed. Entertainment had long gone and all we're left with are teams who would sell their soul just to keep on earning EPL money year after year. That's also greed.
Wow. I thought the Uefa statement was bad.We did.

Weirdly they didn't post it on Twitter though. Maybe they were afraid from the backlash in the comments.
This might all be hot air and a veiled threat to FIFA, UEFA, FA, etc to reform and give the bigger clubs a larger slice of bread.I’m wondering if Klopp will go at the end of the season. I feel like he might.
I really can’t be arsed with football anymore if this is where it’s going. We’re supposed to play Leeds on Monday and it feels so pointless now.
Exactly my thought yesterday. They know this will not go well with fans. So ashamed of the club right now.We did.

Good kick them out of their domestic leagues. I would fully support that. ParasitesTweet

The Serie A had seen better days but Inter and AC Milan can still produce better football then the one offered by Burnley. However what I am tackling here is the mentality. When I started watching the EPL it was by far the 3rd best league in the world. United would have struggled to be a Serie A top 7 team. However each game was entertaining. These days most small-mid sized side will play catenaccio style just to earn that 1 point against the top side. That's frigging boring.It will be the same for MUFC against Inter or AC Milan. Italian clubs are very bad.
They have been incapable in Champions League for many years now.
Not Burnley-level, but certainly Everton- or Villa-level.The Serie A had seen better days but Inter and AC Milan can still produce better football then the one offered by Burnley.
I still haven't bothered to check the rules and qualification system of the nations league.Do people care about the nations league? This will be the next nations league for me. I won't even know who won.
What have Milan done to get more? Poor governance, mismanagement leads to where they are.This might all be hot air and a veiled threat to FIFA, UEFA, FA, etc to reform and give the bigger clubs a larger slice of bread.
Yeah possibly. I think there’s too much negativity coming from all of our fan bases as well. FSG folded over ticket prices before. If a majority of fans reject this collectively then maybe there’ll be a rethink.This might all be hot air and a veiled threat to FIFA, UEFA, FA, etc to reform and give the bigger clubs a larger slice of bread.

It makes me sick tbh. United have worked their arses off all season to get back in the Champions League and it’s all pointless now. Watching us leapfrog you guys, the Champions of England, in the space of just one season has been one of the things that has made the season exciting for us.I don’t think I’d care. We won’t be playing in next seasons Champions League regardless of what happens now.
It all depends on how the promotion mechanism for additional five teams is crafted. Yet it was not explained in yesterday's announcement.Ok I'll play Devil's advocate here:
Arent Champions League already boring?
Arent UEFA/FIFA wildly incompetent and full of greed? It has needed replacing the last two decades.
Could it be that the new setup would actually be better? If there's much power to such a league's clubs, you could push FIFA to not being overly greedy. If the new league has a democratic structure (yes itll be highly capitalistic, but there could be more caring for players/sports ethics)
For me, football is quite terrible at the moment overall, so I welcome ideas.
