    I imagined you being somewhat erm...younger. Did you have a particularly hard paper round?

    Still can't advocate a win for that lot... I'll take an amicable score draw.

    I think they just want to turn these clubs into footballing versions of the harlem globetrotters.

    I feel I could describe how pissed off I still am about this in at least four or five completely separate rants.

    the new super league is replacing champions league. the so called big 6 want to carry on to compete in the premier league, fa cup, league cup. those big 6 are going to court and already started legal proceedings to make sure they do.

    dirty greedy bastards.

    It’s shocking. Did anyone watch Neville before the Leeds v Liverpool game? He was spot on. And Klopps interview? He basically admitted that he wasn’t told by their owners and found out through the media! So not only do these owners not give a f*ck about their fans, they don’t even care about their managers!! I can see Klopp walking.

    Neville's outdone himself throughout all of this so far. I think the point has been rightly made it is a bit rich for these guys who made good money from the PL breakaway and such to have such a damascene conversion, however they are absolutely saying the right things and backing the right people in backing the fans. This is also a lot worse for everyone than the PL ever could be I reckon.

    As my old man said, we'll find out who's made of what over the next few weeks

    You would imagine Klopp is as dispensable as the next man, supporter or whomever.

    Porto were approached and declined, the germans are not looking to join and PSG are not in it.
    Not to mention Ajax, this is some european league so far!
    Wonder who they can bribe to make up the numbers

    Fair play to Mourinho if the reports are true that he was sacked after refusing to take his team out to train this morning in protest to Spurs signing up to the ESL

    Since the inception of the premier league the gap between the rich and poor has grown. The champions league riches has made the gap even wider. Fans have tolerated this up to this point in this country though fans abroad have long campaigned against the greed on UEFA, FIFA and the broadcast companies. This is the first time i've seen an all out backlash to new proposals in footballand it will be interesting to see which way it goes.

    Another of those stupid internet rumour that the naive believe, a bit like the idea that Cooke and Rowe had a bust up in training. Some are so gullible.

    Whilst not in the same league, we have seen a backlash within the football communities against our very own Premier League, whom wished to charge £14.95 to watch 'non televised' games just last October. In the midst of a global pandemic, ensuring football fans were not put at the forefront at this time.

    3 countries :laughing:

    Think they're missing the point.

    Seeing Man Utd vs Barcelona in a nothing match for the fourth season in a row (and guaranteed to keep happening) isn't going to be more interesting than a Bayern Munich vs Paris St Germain UCL final and that's facts.

    Florentino Perez' only hope is to sell this repetitive tripe to a mildly interested China, who will then import the product.

    You're probably right. The only reason I mentioned it was because I was told by a friend who's son in law works for ITV news that there was a lot of chatter about it yesterday so thought there might be something in it.

    There might be a chance its true. Just sounds ridiculous. I liken it to the Rowe Cooke one because that wasn't true either yet some on here keep mentioning it now.

    What makes me think it might just be true is the timing. What club sacks their manager five days before a cup final at Wembley, in normal circumstances?
