Very convenient that Liverpool decided to tap out of the premier league the night before they had to play Leeds at elland road

Just like. Who was the one who thought 'yeah we'll just slide through this plan to form our own league on a Monday night halfway through the season. Probably be fine'

Feels very like that thick of it episode where they spend billions to set up a community bank and try and pretend it's not a big deal

Love the idea of the glazers going 'well FINE we'll take our dodgy debt pyramid scheme and go home if you hate us that much'

Still lolling at the owners crumpling like a crisp packet on a fire after one day and having no plans or strategy beyond 'we announce it, all the arsenal fan TV types are made up they get to do champions league last 16 every week forever, job done'

Calling all legacy fans: super league is back

quote:

The pillars of a reimagined ESL would include a commitment to ‘open competition’ with no guaranteed permanent members. There would also be an expansion from the original 16 elite clubs to 60-80 teams, all still playing in their domestic leagues. A divisional structure would be implemented, meaning promotion and relegation. The ESL would commit to investing in and growing the women’s game and there would be guaranteed €400m annually in solidarity payments to clubs outside the ESL and the grassroots game.

We heard the fans. 16 teams playing each other 50 times a year would kill football. So we banged our heads together and came up with the champions league but you can get relegated

Rangers and Celtic will throw off the shackles of being confined to the SPL to get battered by Bayern Munich twice a week on pay per view

I would be interested to see what would happen if the ESL as presented there made a better offer to the EFL for promotion/relegation since the Prem is its own entity and presumably wouldn't agree to let the top 4 be promoted to the Blue League every season. Want to see Wigan in the European Super League and prem teams getting relegated to the conference
