Seems like it's all falling apart, unfortunately our name will be tarnished forever now.
Milan as well? Wow!Milan have pulled out, Atletico have pulled out
I thought it was Real and Perez running the show?The whole thing likely falls apart if we pull out because we are part responsible for it’s creation.
I wouldn't be surprised if these clubs get a big share of the new pie from UEFA after all of this. After all, that's what they were looking to get. Still, the fact that they elected board officials and sorted out a financial package from JP Morgan meant that they were serious about this. This wasn't just a hollow threat else JP Morgan wouldn't have been announced as the financiers.It's quite bizarre to see people react so positively to this latest Chelsea nonsense and take every bit of news about this literally, getting emotional and not thinking for two seconds.
This Super League was extremely unlikely to happen, at least in the coming two years. Which was blatantly obvious given how amateurish the news was brought into the world, how unprepared everyone involved is at the moment, other than a cheap website there was no infrastructure in place at all. Obviously a club like Chelsea knows this so they can now act like they're taking the moral highground after joining the plan first to put pressure on UEFA - they're a scummy club who owe their success to the ridiculous spending of a shady Russian billionaire. And distgustingly people on here are celebrating this and lapping it up like a bunch of sheep.
The whole Super League is more of a threat and a negotiation position than anything by the big clubs involved. Throw out a generic press release and an amateurish website in the week UEFA is introducing their new CL set-up, create a meda shit storm.
In the meanwhile the UEFA is now being forced to create a lot more funds for the new CL, there's talks of finding investment parters to pump 6-7 billion into the new Champions League.

"UEFA is in discussions with Centricus Asset Management over a 6 billion-euro ($7.2 billion) financing package to overhaul its flagship soccer tournament and stop plans for a new breakaway Super League, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Switzerland-based sporting body is working with Centricus on a plan to fund a new-look UEFA Champions League tournament, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing confidential information."
It is truly fascinating but also quite odd.How much weirder can all of this get? This needs a thorough post-mortem analysis, because there have to be shady deals at play in this rushed announcement followed by an almost immediate collapse.
Jesus Christ, what have these shitbags turned our club into? We used to have pride and honour to our traditions, to football and to history. People like the Glazers and Woodward acting as representatives of Manchester United is absolutely criminal!
Yes, that seemed obvious. They always play the super league card when they want more cash out of UEFA. Been doing it for 20 or 30 years now.Was this whole thing just a ploy to get more UCL money?
If they could have pushed this through now, they would haveIt's quite bizarre to see people react so positively to this latest Chelsea nonsense and take every bit of news about this literally, getting emotional and not thinking for two seconds.

Has it fallen? Or has it achieved what it set out to?I’m genuinely shocked that it’s falling this easily.
Could see some ideas being adopted for the CL by UEFA, plus more moneyWas this whole thing just a ploy to get more UCL money?

No doubt about it.The cynic in me thinks UEFA have given something in return and this was all a bluff...
No club more than them deserve to have a Rangers moment and disappear into obscurity.Real Madrid fans looking like total pricks, they were fully in favour of this shit.
