Void the seasons of all of these clubs. Forfeit their results and tell them they won't be playing again.

UEFA are threatening to cancel the remainder of this year's CL and declare PSG the winner, and stage an EL final with Roma vs Villareal.

The Agnellis have always been the biggest cheerleaders for this whole idea. They've been trying to get it off the ground for years. The Americans are enthusiastic co-signatories, but it's Juve that have been the driving force behind the whole scheme and are the reason it has never gone away for long.

Yep

Andrea Agnelli sucks

So this is all poo poo and bollocks obviously but I'm having a hard time with all the sanctimony as if it's not actually a bunch of billionaire cunts betraying a different other bunch of billionaire cunts.

For me it ultimately comes down to whether I choose to continue to support an organization that lies and gaslights to promote further profit taking and making GBS threads down the throats of supporters and other clubs while insisting this is actually good for all of them. Granted, yes, I shouldn't have used "literally supporting Juventus" as my non-work, non-real life mental getaway from overly powerful organizations abusing their status, money and connections to maintain the financial status quo and gently caress over everybody else. After being exhausted about all the bullshit of real life maybe it's not worth it to have a hobby where you spend your time supporting a club that in recent years is just doing the same thing for things like rape apologia and now all of this.

I keep reading that owners/chairmen etc "didn't expect this reaction". That has to be nonsense right?

One thing to note is that the reaction hasn't been the same outside of England. Juve, Milan, and Inter supporters are largely saying "well let's just see how this plays out". So I can see how maybe the English clubs were caught off guard.

Seems like it would only be an issue if it had started. Or at least thats what the article is saying.

It also states that the clubs that remain in the ESL can sue the clubs that signed on but then abandoned the project, based on the contract terms
