Football Super league rumours yet again !!

[ted fenton]

"Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur all agree to plan. Five English clubs are among 11 European teams who have signed up to a breakaway Super League in an extraordinary development on the eve of Uefa's announcement of a new Champions League format. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/18/sports/soccer/super-league-united-liverpool-juventus-madrid.html"

[stewie griffin]

Parish basically admitting they'll cave to these cunts. Just fucking kick them out

[Mike Oxsaw]

Life of Riley 9:25 Mon Apr 19 Exactly. Same effect if 3 PL clubs went into administration in the same season.

[Mike Oxsaw]

"‚öíÔ?è 9:18 Mon Apr 19 If Everton sign up for this, they won't need a shiny new stadium as all their games will be played in other parts of the world."

[Life of Riley]

"To clear something up. This will in no way affect any of the current broadcasting deals. As long as the agreed amount of games are broadcast then no drama. The PL is made up of 21 shares 20 to the clubs and 1 to the fa all that happens when a club is relegated is that share gets passed on to a promoted club. The broadcasters might not be happy because of the clubs that are missing but if Liverpool, man utd and Arsenal all got relegated then that's no difference."

"To be fair to Klopp, ignoring how unhappy the entire football world is and complaining about a t shirt upsetting him is very Liverpool."

[dealcanvey]

Mr kenzo I was thinking earlier that the yanks definitely started this idea. The whole format is very American and typical of an Uber rich family/organisation that thinks they can have the whole cake and eat it.

also funny he got to say we shall not walk alone... Ha

[Jasnik]

[Jasnik]

well at least Klopp mentioned us in his press conference.

[Sven Roeder]

Klopp allowed to waffle around in circles The question for him should have been will you walk away from Liverpool or at least consider your position if this goes ahead. Liking the Leeds warm up shirts ... Champions League logo with EARN IT written underneath. They left some in the Liverpool dressing room .... so Klopp had a hissy fit

[Mr Kenzo]

"The USA are driving this, this is football not Soccer, they have no right to get involved in our game, Its a disgrace im sure Soldo will be out there with his USA USA USA bollocks, i pray this gets kicked out."

[Lily Hammer]

Any potential buyer of West Ham will probably say they will only go ahead if GSB back this shit cսnt plan.

[twoleftfeet]

"What are you expecting the West Ham board to say? They are playing it right at the moment, say nothing and let’s see what happens."

[⚒️]

Wouldn’t be surprised to see Everton sign up for it with Moshiri and Usmanov involved and a new stadium on the way.

[Jasnik]

So they don't need to try and get 4th now .. as there is no point right

[Hallerinthemorning]

KLOPP bottled it. Massively. Hahaha

[HammerFan43]

All's very quiet on the official West Ham site. ?ü§î

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

"UEFA should allow dissenting players the right to cancel their contracts from these clubs, and then maybe we can get Lingard on a free."

[twoleftfeet]

We are going to be playing Bayern Munich in the Champions League next season. That is exciting.

[The Stoat]

"BREAKING NEWS West Ham United reveal plans to form breakaway Newham Super League, with Canning Town, the Plaistow Railway Modellers Club, Forest Gate, and the Manor Park branch of the Royal British Legion."

[Jasnik]

"think what sums the whole thing up was the previous comment that the American owners don't understand relegation's. so rather than try to understand it the think they have a right to change it,that is where the problem is. They have no concept that a sport should be competitive with real risk if you don't perform. They want it all like Disney land where everything is shiny and no one is sad."

[claretandbluedagger]

Klopp has spent a few minutes saying absolutely nothing. Clearly in a tough position but I’d hoped for more.

[Full Claret Jacket]

"AKA ERNIE 8:53 Mon Apr 19 The ESL clubs will know exactly how to get round the rules and assert their position to get what they want. Who is likely to be able to get their way - a multi-billion collaboration of overseas companies used to courts, using money and influence to get what they want or a blazer brigade and corrupt governing bodies happy to turn a blind eye if the money is right. The ESL clubs will absolutely have predicted the outrage and will have made sure they have a good legal standing to prevent being blocked, expelled from leagues or constrained from earning more money. They aren't the only greedy clubs but I'm sick of the commercialisation of sport and the lack of thought or even consideration of the generations of fans and communities to which these clubs were born and have grown up on."

[ParadiseLost]

What will happen to outstanding transfer fees? If clubs move outside the current structure might those become instantly due?

[Mr Kenzo]

Never been a fan of Gary Neville but he has nailed it on Sky
