"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"

"It’s going to take the gov to step in really... let’s say the PL and teams vote them out, the 6 clubs will start legal action!! It will never end really Unless the 14 clubs disband the PL and establish a new one of re enter the English league."

The more I think about this the more I realise that I would much rather play Millwall & QPR than spurs & chelsea. Real supporters & fewer prima donna players. Much better.

"Man City, Chelsea & Real Madrid will be kicked out of the CL this week. PSG win the CL by default. 6 months later they’ll join the ESL."

Fully expecting half time shows that are at least 30 minutes long.

"oldtimer, I was thinking about this. If they completely break from the FAs they'd be free to make up their own rules of the game as well. And we know Americans don't like low scores or draws."

I really hope the PL and Uefa have the balls to punish them for attempting this. I’d love to see these clubs banned from Europe with transfer bans.

The yanks trying to fuck the peoples game and Tottenham clinging on to their coat tails so they are regarded as a big club. What a bunch of deluded cunts.

"Here's what I see for the super league.Because it is backed by Americans they will make the rules to make it more 'American'. No more offside rule Designated breaks during each half. Stopping the clock if there are injuries, so that means no more'fergie"" time. Penalty shoot outs at the end of ninety minutes if a game is tied. The more goals you score the more points you receive. 'Rolling substitutes"" you can come back on if not injured. Cheerleaders ( go Spurs go) Anyone think of anything else."

English clubs but not English owners NaG.. It is notable that the Bundeslig which has a different style of ownership to the UK has no clubs in this cartel.

"I'm more bemused as to the fact that the Little 14 have to have a chinwag tomorrow. If their club rules have been broken there should be no need for any discussion. They made the fucking rules, so they should know what they involve. Are they not in the public domain?"

"I really hope it goes through, what would be left if handled correctly would be, potentially, an amazing product, proper competition. Like most on here, who cares a fuck about the CL/Europa? If the interest is the Far East, India, USA then let them have it, those teams will become franchises and will end up playing where the main market is!"

"My guess is the English clubs that were the prime movers in this were Man U, Liverpool and the fucking Gooners, what do they all have in common? American fucking owners, I read one quote that they can't get their head around is promotion and relegation, that's why all major American sports act as a closed shop, you only get ""invited in"", there's no pyramid system in place Yank cunts"

"It’s time the fans had their say. If the majority of fans would boycott it, it matters not what UEFA or FIFA threaten. I rarely watch CL or Europa games as it is. If these lot fucked off they wouldn’t get a penny from me. Although if I were apart of either governing body, I’d promote a life ban for any player that goes to this Super League. With no room for them buying players either."
