Fordy doesn't owe you an apology. You were wrong in a way no one has ever seen before. Nobody can believe how wrong you were, and how right Fordy was. People like you are very bad people. We have to get rid of you for the sake of the forum, and it will all get better. it will be like a miracle, nobody will believe it. Nobody will have seen anything like it.

 

At the moment each Premier club has one vote and 14 are needed to change any rule, The proposal is that a nominated 9 clubs will get a vote and only 6 needed to change a rule, The drive behind this is Foreign TV money which is worth billions and shared between all 20 clubs, The top six want to sell the rights individually meaning they will get most if not all the foreign rights money, As with everything with the top clubs it is all about money

 

This is all about the top 6 not wanting to share the tv money any more as they don’t think the rest of the peasant clubs deserve it.
I’d rather let them break away than accept this shit for the sake of 250 million grant for the EFL. This cannot be voted in. We will regret it

 

The PL broadcasting contracts for league matches will diminish at the next renewal. Thus less money to give to the EFL. However as the European competitions become ever larger then the television contracts will grow thus giving more money to the top 6. Thus cementing their position for eternity. Also by removing the League Cup there will never be a chance for any EFL club to "do a City" again.

 

A route the EFL could have gone down? Who knows?

 

If there is any truth in that tweet, then you have to ask is Rick Parry is feathering his own nest, we dont know the details but as the EFL representative the offer should have been discussed with the 72 clubs it would have affected.

 

I think it’s clear he is. He will still be in bed with Liverpool and will no doubt get some sweetners from the other deal

 

Maybe that's one of the reason Dave Baldwin offered his resignation, he's no bodies fool isn't Dave.

 

The need for the top 6 to have all the power is pure capitalism.

The real question with capitalism is why on earth do all the rest tend to fervently support, back, and even praise them when we all see through it?

 

How do they fit the 2 who drop out of the premier league into the pyramid? Do they relegate 4 one season from league 2? I can’t get my head around that. I can see why some league 2 clubs would be reluctant if that’s the case. I think we should be the way we played last night

 

What do you say to the proposals that Parry has to resign for this to go through?
What about all the supporters Clubs of the big 6 who have now joined together to condemn this deal?

Why is it we accept the first offer? This is the 18th draft I think I read somewhere. It’s a power grab and must not be accepted without adjustments

 

All soundbites to appease fans. It’s all bullshit. Much like using furlough cash and spending 1.2billion this window. They don’t care.
A lot of people facing no work for months ah but we will charge you 14.95 to watch your side. It’s complete greed upon greed upon greed. I hope it eats itself and we can start again

 

Most of the cash would go to the Championship as it does now, League 2 clubs be lucky to get any decent cash from this proposal,

 

Why should the government do anything?

Football is a business, it should be governed only by the laws of business.

If football is not viable under the laws of business it should be liquidated.

No exceptions.

Sentiment has no place in any of this.

The fact is the upper strata of football management are incompetent.

 

Reading that if it goes through the only glory clubs like us can get is from the FA Cup as there wont be the Carabao Cup, lots of stuff that sounds positive but the PL aren't helping the EFL teams because they don't want EFL clubs to go bust, there will be more the Premier boys want going forward.

 

And what about the bank bail outs?

No exceptions?
