Also I dare UEFA to "ban" any of the elite clubs. Just watch the UEFA to fall in line once they find a way to get a slice of the pie from the ESL
So same as what UEFA has allowed the oil clubs to do while having a moral high horse known as FFP?It's not a revolution it's a faceless cash and power grab.

I think it’ll be fecking cool to play the other big boys in Europe really frequently throughout every season. And saving myself the stress about CL qualification or attracting world class players.
You sure showed him.Moral of the story is, don’t be a dick, dick.
CL and SL can't coexist. Not with the same teams at least. The SL has a team playing 18-23 matches every season. I'm wondering how this is meant to fit in alongwith league football. Bigger squads I guess.I'm absolutely fine with this provided they don't replace CL and the clubs aren't thrown out of domestic leagues. Domestic leagues has history and soul, it just can't be replaced outside of it. CL has its own beauties as well . It's always fun to see Porto knocking Juve out.
ESL will give a different feeling altogether. Something which we have never seen until now. It's opening up for a global audience. I could even see a final by sitting in an actual stadium.

On this thread, I'll look forward to it. Not that I like the idea, it's not well intentioned at all. However my only concern is to enjoy watching Manchester United and having us build a top class team. What competition we play in is secondary.
However I will add that for me it's the PL and not the CL that's sacred and I want it protected no matter what.
It's a new thing. Are you one of those who judges everything into categories good and bad? So as per you the current establishment of football is good? And this new thing is evil?Yes.
Did you think what Abu Dhabi and Qatar did was "revolutionary"? No. It was the opposite. This is the same.
This Superleague was not designed for, and is not going to be, a "rebalancing" of that past injustice for christ sake. Anyone who thinks this is a good thing because "it will feck over City and PSG", and help the non-state owned clubs improve relative to them, are wildly ignorant or deluded.
Precisely. Closed competition is the most disgusting thing in sport. It reeks of elitism, where the spoon fed richest clubs get their way no matter what. There’s been nothing ‘super’ about Arsenal since they went unbeaten, nothing ‘super’ about Milan for a whole decade and finally nothing ‘super’ about Spurs since.....ever. What gives these guys the right to go in? Now we’re going to be kicked out of the PL and CL too. Just awful.This is my BIGGEST issue with it. If they said the qualification was for instance the top 3 in each league, I'd be all up for it.
Seeing teams like Arsenal fumble their way to 9th place in the league and then turn up in the elite competition is just

Anyway, I think you missed my point where I made it amply clear that I am on board with this new concept because it shows a big flipped bird to UEFA and its cronies.

Because there is a lot at stake in the Premier League right now - CL qualification. Once it is established that clubs can finish 15th and still play in this so called super league, they can start sending their reserve teams if winning the title becomes unlikely.Why doesn't that happen already with the CL? Or especially, why didn't it happen with the old European Cup?
Ive not even been contacted to renew

Because if you have a shit season in the league, you don't get into the European competition next season.
Frankly with the European Cup if you didn't win the fecking league then you didn't qualify for it.
How is this difficult to understand?
I never liked the CL format either, actually. Bring back the old European Cup, Cup Winners' Cup, and UEFA Cup as far as I'm concerned (or whatever they were called in English).
Yeah, reallyPeople are angry because the media has told them to be.
Would it be possible to put some sort of marker, perhap a dollar symbol, next to the names of all the people who would support these proposals?
No it's so wrong.. I want to see us play against Basel, Rapid Vienna or Legia Warzawa also, not only Real Madrid or Liverpool.
I presume the point is with the old European Cup there was no incentive to compete for 2nd, 3rd or 4th place. Which is perceived as the biggest harm to the domestic league.
