European Super League

[Nico87]

Pathetic little cnuts, hope they still receive some punishment. The punishment they've received from fans and pundits isn't enough.

Every player and fan was vehemently against this so the punishment has to be directed at the board.

 

[el3mel]

It'll look fecking disgusting if it ends up with the only one standing alongside Perez is the fecking Glazers.

 

[AltiUn]

Its just going to be a yearly cup between United and Madrid at this rate.

We're withdrawing too apparently.

 

[Dante]

Need Glazers out

I think this might actually happen.

They've maximised profits since 2003, and the ESL was going to be their cash cow. Now the cow is dead, they've got nothing left to gain.

 

[Mickeza]

Our cnut is the vice president of this shambles so yes, you're bang on.

Bruno, Rashford and Shaw all spoke out before the collapse though! Let’s focus on the positives.

 

[Berbaclass]

Who is that?

A nobody.

 

[Murder on Zidane's Floor]

Capitalism at it's most transparent; "...the next generation of fans don't like the sport so we must change it for the survival of the game..."

Small side note, we just so happen to profit obscenely from the solution to this "problem".

Please guys, take this example and use it whenever some shitehouse company from silicon valley tries to tell you they're "disrupting" something.

 

[laughtersassassin]

Glazers out now! They will try this again

 

[Tony247]

Meanwhile the fighting cocks are still confused how on earth they are part of ESL.

 

[Damien]

So you're telling me I've gone through 200+ pages setting threadmarks and this thread is likely going to be redundant by tomorrow? Cheers @TheReligion

 

[Klopper76]

United are gone. That's big considering Joel Glazer's position as a vice chairman.

 

[YAMS49]

Clubs pulling out faster than John Terry at a Bridge family barbecue.

 

[Judas]

A nobody.

You hope you seem so weirdly sad that this is falling apart.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

If this ESL fails and that what it looks like.
Woodward needs to be removed ASAP and pressure put on the Glazers to sell up during the close season, if not sooner.

 

[Drainy]

Pathetic little cnuts, hope they still receive some punishment. The punishment they've received from fans and pundits isn't enough.

punished for what exactly? proposing something that wasn't sanctioned and withdrawing

 

[FreakyJim]

I thought people were adamant that they "thought this through" and "no way they pull out". It's JP Morgan, they have lawyers! Everything is set up

feck you Glazers, go hide now

 

[Tony247]

I thought it was Real and Perez running the show?

Don't underestimate woodie.

 

[V.O.]

Who is that? It's an unverified account with less than 1000 followers.

Couldn't even be arsed coming up with a name like "UnitedZone" or "ChelseaNews" and having a shit logo. Shameful display.

 

[rcoobc]

The Chelsea and CIty should save football is hilarious.

 

[Berbaclass]

You hope you seem so weirdly sad that this is falling apart.

I’m happy with the current CL. It’s all just a bit of an anticlimax in a weird way

 

[groovyalbert]

well... that went well

 

[Ixion]

Watch there be some preseason Emirates Cup thing involving these 12 clubs fulfilling some contractual obligation on the sly.

 

[Snoooked]

So you're telling me I've gone through 200+ pages setting threadmarks and this thread is likely going to be redundant by tomorrow? Cheers @TheReligion

I didn't even know they exist

 

[SinNombre]

United are gone. That's big considering Joel Glazer's position as a vice chairman.

They got what they wanted from UEFA if this new 4.6 billion revamp is true.

This Has to happen now after all this. This doesn't stop for us fans now. We have to drive these cnuts and Woodward out of our club

 

[Manny]

Exactly. I started watching back in the 90s when the Italians and the Spanish clubs were the top spenders. We couldn't compete with them on that front. We couldn't afford wages for the likes of Kluivert, Batistuta etc.

They offloaded their unwanted players to the Premier League. Retiring players like Casiraghi, Ravanelli. Players who failed there like Henry, Bergkamp. The English league lost the likes of Mark Hughes, Gary Lineker and Ian Rush to Barcelona.

Still, we did it the right way. Shared TV money almost equally amongst our competitors and created a competitive league that many around the world enjoy.

Now Barca and Madrid are skint and their leagues have become so uncompetitive due to TV money distribution that it's unappealing to people. This was what Perez was talking about when he said people want to see competitive matches. The cheek of him when his club is largely responsible for turning La Liga into a joke.

The English 6 have given the Italians and Spanish a way out largely because of how greedy our owners are. The owners of our own United have tarred the legacy of the club at the behest of the struggling continental clubs who used to lord over the English clubs (and for the money as well.) It's kind of heartbreaking.

Spot on. Particularly the bold.

 

[Shane88]

How embarrassing that we only follow City and Chelsea's lead on this.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

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!

Unlikely but one positive may be Glazers feck off.

If it's a pile of rambling shit like his previous one supporting it, this could be hilarious. Car crash TV.

Hoping Real and Barca are fecked financially for a few years because of this

The messiah for United news if its true.

Also, big well done to you and your fellow Chelsea fans!

 

[duffer]

I kinda want Roman to do his first ever Sky Sports interview, just saying "your welcome" and then walking out.

I read that as Woodward needs to put pressure on Glazers and remove them

 

[Buster15]

don't worry, they won't

Boris will claim that it was he who caused the breakdown.
He will now let it slip away.

Can this source be trusted? Sorry, if this is a stupid question.

No surprise nothing from Ole though

First the PS3 store stays open and now this.

What a great week

 

[Real Name]

Are we out!?

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

How embarrassing that we only follow City and Chelsea's lead on this.

Mate, as long as (1) we're out and (2) it fails, I'll take it

 

[united_99]

Amateurs all the clubs involved
And eggs on Glazers’ faces. Great!

 

[fergosaurus]

Fair play to Chelsea and City. So there likely was truth after all to that Tweet from Matt Law.

 

[mazhar13]

Pathetic little cnuts, hope they still receive some punishment. The punishment they've received from fans and pundits isn't enough.

Unfortunately, I don't see anything else but the clubs being forgiven and this being forgotten about. I'd also wish for these teams to suffer the consequences, but at this point, there's no legal standing for sanctions against them. We can only hope that the fans continue to voice their dismay at these owners/execs and ensure that they aren't forgiven.
