Breakaway league...

Yes correct. But if they leave the PL and ECL then they also lose 200m in lost revenue. And would only play around 13-15 games a season.

That’s just not going to happen.

I can see some short term pain for them.

A negotiation proposal from Uefa maybe to merge the ECL and ESL in some form to suit all.

 

Pazzaz? Who gives a **** about that ****, this ain't the superbowl ffs.

Sounds ****ing brilliant a league without all the hype and obscene money to me.

 

The new proposals for the CL is a farce as well,take Liverpool's match last night trying to qualify for the CL and get a top 4 spot,under the new rules they will qualify for historical reasons if out of the places and bump West Ham out of it and probably not bother their arses all season because they have no goal and in effect we'll have 2 pointless leagues,the PL and the ESL.I think we should go back to more mundane issues like getting our yearly hiding in Anfield this Saturday!

 

The way I read it. The top 4 slots would still be available. But the top 3 co-efficient clubs in Europe who didn’t make their own top 2/3/4 or whatever would qualify. Thus in your example West Ham
Would still make it. But So would potentially a Man Utd based on the co-efficient score.

I think that seems ok. Because if they don’t qualify again the next season their co-efficient may be low enough to not be in the top 3.

 

Fair enough,I think it just happened that Liverpool met the criteria this season

 

Don't think I've ever felt more out of love with football than I do right now

But if the ESL have cheerleaders like the Dallas Cowboys then I'm in.

 

Fancy dress, BBQ’s in the car park, marching band entertainment and VAR with accompanying suspense music over the sound system, cutting to a commercial break, before revealing the decision...what’s not to like. A full day out for all the family!!!!

 

It's still wrong that you could qualify for the CL finishing below teams that haven't (and not via winning the Europa) however you look at it ...

Let's all feel sorry for one of the Big Boys missing out on a season's cash cow? ... not me, I think that's great ... anything that helps spread the wealth should be roundly applauded ... not countered for the benefit of the already wealthy clubs.

 

Lol.

Even better, use your smart TV to vote for the outcome.

'Is it a Penalty kick ? You decide !'

 

I'm a bit bored of it already.

 

They're not leaving the premier league.

They're securing their positions financially and removing the business opportunity at all other clubs who might ever threaten them forever.

Clubs like Leicester, West ham, Everton shafted in the immediate future

 

Brilliant, I like that idea

 

I see what your saying and I agree with this angle also. I’m on the fence for the 3 co-efficient spots. There is still a massive risk for these teams to get those 3 spots so couldn’t bank on them.

I can see why they would do it. From a financial perspective.

It’s all about money money money.

Football sold its soul to the devil 30 years ago, it seems we are only just realising

 

Then

that cannot happen.Here’s hoping the powers that be have a strong back bone and block it.

Somehow. I don’t know how.

God imagine in this meeting this morning with all the chief execs and masters and then Penfold is in the corner playing mine craft on his phone.

“Masters shouts, Lee get the drinks in”.

Lee responds “Yes master” (in a hobbit voice)

 

Let's hope we beat them... They're trying to stamp our clubs remaining embers of hope out of existence.

No slant on pool fans

 

Make no mistake mate that's the plan

 

It's one group of corrupt rich people fighting another with fans getting screwed over in the middle of it all. We've got Uefa and Fifa acting like they represent the fans. Cancel Qatar then, show you've changed.

 

Then the big clubs win. The idea needs to be shot down with no exceptions.
