No other code would be silly enough to create a Super League.....

The only problem is , the morons in our game will see this as a sign and do super league mark 2.

The Premier League and UEFA are the main reason the game and the clubs are now businesses first. This open and fair sporting bollocks they are spouting is disingenuous bullshit. They are worried their gravy train is derailing. They don’t really care about the game beyond money.

It was always going to happen, UEFA are more corrupt than ever before and someone was going to challenge them. But I reckon the Swiss model gets approved tomorrow and this idea withers on the vine. They're just forcing the UEFA hand. But the PL moaning is too rich for me after the way they formed against the wishes of pretty much everyone

Exactly
It’s a power move and they’re bluffing but UEFA won’t have the balls to call their bluff

The CL is nothing without the big clubs and they know it

You just wanna take them by the scruff of the neck, shove them in front of a video about OUR Superleague war, and scream "Watch THIS, you fools!!" (...and that's the PG version...)

The Sacked One - rumour is it's because he refused to take players out to train after the ESL announcement. Others saying it's BS

There is either an ingenious method behind this madness, or the owners are actually so disconnected that they didn't foresee the condemnation

Well sacking a manager 6 days before a final is very drastic, you'd suspect something went on behind the scenes

Does everyone forget how the Premier League formed?
This absolutely reeks of that.

This absolutely reeks of that.

To an extent, despite the teeth gnashing the PL was really just a revamp of the Top Division with the traditional P&R system and lower leagues being preserved.

Currently this looks like a closed circuit league, which anyone outside will not be able to enter, or leave for that matter.

What a joke. The messages from the leeds team/club at this mornings game against Liverpool were apt.

No official reason given but that is what allegedly happened and it was very convenient as his days were numbered, we just needed a reason.

yeh, his performance

half of the board wanted him gone when we got knocked out of EUROPA, only Levy wanted him retained but now he's gone off him,

yesterday was a convenient opportunity
