    Everything is far too quiet for conversations not to be happening right now behind closed doors....

    There's been clues since they withdrew and right now I think it's glaringly obvious it's still very much on the cards. How many signs can people ignore? Reminds me of the fakeover brigade dismissing everything until it was punching them in the face.

    I see the big 6 are trying to put the final nail in this.

    This is purely to prevent any takeovers that upset the order.. This is an effort to frighten off PIF for good.. Just the idea of it might be the final nail in the coffin

    It’s not the big 6. It’s Liverpool and United with their Sherman owners.

    Trying to use the potential bail out of the EFL as leverage to push their own agenda.

    Absolute ****s.

    West ham Southampton and Everton would get a say... The games finished I'd this happens... Or whats left of it anyway.

    They know the fans will just complain, but keep paying though...

    Make no mistake their aim here isn’t about the number of clubs in the league, relegation or the league cup, that’s just a smoke screen.

    Their aim here is to leverage themselves into a position where they can dictate the future of the TV revenue. They’ve wanted for years to have a completely different split on how the money is divided and their ultimate goal is the opportunity to control their own TV rights.

    They’ll need 14 clubs to fall for this bollocks and I won’t accept mine forming part of it.

    This. They want exclusivity over their own TV rights. Gives them carte blanche to charge what they want. Greed.

    It’s not about the cost either mate, it’s about them having the largest global fanbases and them thinking they should have the lions share of the cake.

    It’d kill the league as a competition, as the disparity between the TV revenues of them and the rest would make it impossible for anyone but them to realistically compete. It’d create a Barca / Real situation where the lower ranked clubs are just cannon fodder.

    It’d kill the PL.
