[Football] Liverpool and Manchester United lead ‘European League’ breakout league idea
- Thread starter The Wizard
- Start date
Those Yanks will be harder to shift. Arse, Manure and Liverpool are the stains. Spuds is irrelevant.
I'd forgotten all about Liverpool. I hadn't realised they were a top six club.

Barcelona and Athletico have withdrawn
Everyone’s out what I’m hearing

Agreed.
It seemed to me that it was a foregone conclusion that accepting their wishes would be bad for the other 14 PL clubs, and therefore they wouldn't allow the 6 to remain in the PL. It also seems obvious to me that this would not be financially successful for the 6 clubs to leave the PL. QED it seemed doomed to fail.
But as obvious as all that seems to you and me, there are plenty here who don't think it will fail, and think they'll have to be bribed to stay. It seems they agree with the owners.

If this goes the way we all hope it goes, and with the withdrawal of Chelsea, that starts to look more likely, the big six will have lost a huge amount of influence in the Prem League, and with the resignation of some of their UEFA posts not only have they lost influence in the Pem but over European football as well. If so it may well be a good thing in the end.
No one will trust a thing these club owners say anymore as its obvious whatever they were saying in the CL redesign negotiations was nothing more than a stalling operation until they could try and kill that particular competition
So in very short order they have managed to almost universally unite their own and every other clubs fans against them, shown themselves for what we all knew they were anyway, lost influence in national and international organisations. Possibly the most spectacular own goal in history

Meeting tonight to ‘discuss’ disbanding the ESL.......won’t need long, will they......
What a ****ing SHAMBLES. They should all be ashamed.

My money is on them doing this again in the summer.
And punished the horrid f*****s!
Exactly this hopefully........they absolutely shouldn’t be allowed to forget it. Sit down, shut up and leave the running of the game to the Bloom and Barber types of this world you muppets.

They should give the owners of all teams involved in this six months to get out of football and never be allowed back in.
