European Super League - Dead on arrival

[treepits]

I think Levy invented the whole thing to cover Jose failing.

Top work from the little genius.

Then he can watch as all the other teams pull out one by one before claiming Spurs are the ESL champions

This is going to be interesting. Surely all these people haven't put their necks on the line without some sort of written commitment from the clubs? I can't see the likes of Perez, Glazier and JP Morgan just shrugging their shoulders and saying "off you go."

And does the absence of Chelsea kill this or does it need another few for it to lose credibility?

Typical Chelsea!

You’d think it wasn’t delicate enough that one change of mind would sink it.

Also, it’s not a headline club, United, Barca, Madrid or Milan would matter more I think.

Chelski presumably taking the moral high ground. You couldn't make it up.

Fair play to Chelsea if they do pull out. Thought it would be either them or Emirates Marketing Project. Neither of them owned by someone looking to make money out of it.

You know the world is fudged when this sort of thing happens

When something seems to good to be true...

It's down to the powers that be, who have let the game go the way it has, to find a way to bring it back - they won't do that though because all this guff about competitiveness and fans first isn't what they're about, they just want to be the ones doing the fudging, not to be the ones getting fudged.

They set this ball rolling with the CL, they created this monster through their own greed - should have never changed from the European Cup, Uefa Cup, and Cup Winners Cup.

Spot On. I enjoyed the days of the CWC. So what, so there was a fair fews 11-0 on aggregate mis-matches, but, luck of the draw, beauty of the comp I say. Bring it back

 

[billyiddo]

City pulling out as well

 

[johnola]

Translation,
We are fine, can never be relegated, always have CL

Hell yeah, we'd be completely fudged, it would put us out of business.[/QU

Lol. Oh well, fun while it lasted.

Why do you want out now Chelsea aren’t in it?

 

[Robbo]

Never mind Abramovich bailing them out with blood money when they were bankrupt.

 

[Baleforce]

Why do you want out now Chelsea aren’t in it?

I don’t want out, I fear the domino effect.

 

[ShipOfTheseus]

Why do you want out now Chelsea aren’t in it?

Assuming that others will follow.

Now is the time for Levy to admit this was a mistake. He's already on a roll this week.

 

[AdamB]

Well, thats that. If 2 of the 12 have pulled out, then its over

Now is the time for Levy to admit this was a mistake. He's already on a roll this week.

Better now than being dragged out of the super league after the other five English clubs have pulled out.

 

[AdamB]

A team who pulls out looks ridiculous. Makes it look like they were completely surprised by the reaction - suggests they havent got a clue about the industry in which they operate
