Valance1690 3,826 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Overall its a positive thing that those 2 have pulled out, the others will follow, some kicking/screaming more than others but it's dead and buried now. The overall issues still stand though, UEFA have even more power now than they did before all of this, a corrupt organisation at best. The 12 clubs, whilst they're getting dragged through the mud just now, also now know (if they didn't already) how much pull they have over the rest of the footballing world. They know their respective leagues need them whereas they don't need the Everton's, Fiorentina's, Villareal's of the world. It wont be long until Uefa/Fifa are out praising them and saying how great is is to have them involved. Even if their owners/chairman step down, someone else with deep pockets will take over & nothing will change until there's a complete revamp of the stone age authorities in charge & some sort of control over the money involved in the game.

Siam69 26,874 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Manchester City Football Club can confirm that it has formally enacted the procedures to withdraw from the group developing plans for a European Super League.

Guillem Balague Spanish football journalist Barcelona around two and a half hours ago started leaking to us 'we were into this, but it has to be approved by the season tickets holder assembly'. When a board at Barcelona want something to go through it usually goes through. But this is their excuse to say we only signed on this provision. I spoke to Atletico Madrid an hour or so ago and they said they don't expect anything to happen but things are moving quickly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrymorrison1 1,033 Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 8 minutes ago, GOAT said: I was convinced there would be some form of super league in my lifetime, now I know there won’t be ever. But football and European competition does need reformed in some way now. Bigger teams from the so called poorer leagues need to be given more of a chance to compete in Europe. Want a super league? Give Ajax, Benfica, Dortmund, Porto, PSV, Rangers, celtic, PSG, Marseille, etc the opportunity to compete on equal financial terms. Also promotion and relegation through winning the CL or a form of it is the only way it could work in my eyes. far too much involved for my mind, but it would need 20 clubs, not 12, and not just from 3 leagues.

You can't force clubs to hand over a 51% share to the fans. It would need to be bought, and what fan groups could raise the hundreds of millions required to buy a share that big?
