    The super league is coming at some point whether we like it or not potentially I feel.

    The nerve of this statement.

    There are plenty people who would love to smash England clubs' financial dominance in world football.

    Had nothing to do with Chelsea pulling out - let’s not make it seem they’re the saviour of football.

    It fell apart because 99% of fans across the globe protested strongly and condemned their club for signing up.

    The fans are the reason it fell apart.

    Lol fans to a degree but that's why some clubs hung in there desperately?

    Chelsea pulled out because roman wasn't that arsed... this American won't be the same.

    They'll redress it and it'll resurface imo... hope I'm wrong.

    I asked this - Super League sounds like the road to ruin, not Eastbourne

    Newcastle should write a statement saying they hope ffp is removed to allow them to bulldoze their way to the top and help the footballing pyramid in the process.

    I reckon given the way the Saudi's are going, someone will argue FFP is a restriction of trade since it only impacts UEFA clubs and the whole thing will disappear

    Hopefully because it's nothing more than a rule invented to keep the order.

    These clubs are a disgrace but it's not like they can just give up the money so they'll do everything to keep it.

    Definitely not, the idea got absolutely annihilated before, not happening.

    We'll see but if you think his effort to win a court case is for no reason at all then I'd beg to differ.

    They'll redress it a bit somewhere down the line.

    The new CL format is essentially a small
    step to a super league anyway. Uefa we’re just pissed cos they weren’t involved in the other super league idea.

    They’ve already increased CL number of clubs and made it one giant table (which is ****).

    They’ve already given out extra places to best performing countries to help more big clubs get in (which is ****).

    The new format allows all the big clubs who may have a bad few games a second chance via a play off (which is ****).

    Uefa need clubs like Manchester, Liverpool, chelsea, Milan’s Juve Barca in the CL and in the later stages to help them sell tv rights so will always do all they can to make sure as many as in the CL and get through to the knockouts.

    Thats before we even start talking about the new club World Cup format
