Champions League revamp

[B17BLG]

When are clubs going to start condemning this?

I want DBB out there lambasting them now.

Villa CEO has spoken out i think

 

[Yarrgh]

It's up to him to protest it then and demand the club are banned from domestic competition and forced to start at the bottom of the pyramid.

If he cares that much about it.

And I hope he does. I feel sorry for those fans of the scab 6 whose owners greed and avarice looks likely to take their club away from them.

lol Proof if needed, that you can be running huge businesses and still be massively incompetent.
They’ve all spectacularly misread how this would be received. I think it’s great.

I can't fathom how they have, this is about the 3rd or 4th time they've done this in about 2 years and it's been met with this condemnation each time.

I can hand on heart say that if it were Everton, that'd be my position.

Because the club would no longer exist. So I'd prefer the bastardisation of the club to be obliterated.

All jumped in a boat together and pushed themselves off onto the seas. Not even out of harbour yet and the boat has a hole in it and taking on water, coastguard whom they treated with contempt refusing to help. Glorious.

If the FA do relegate the match fixers they should withdraw payments from the league earned this season and give it to struggling grass roots footy

And crowds with no real rivalry with each other other than once or twice a season.

A big part of the appeal to football is the crowd reaction.

Well, I use teams in Spain again as a big example, they don’t travel it’s so vast.

Yourr right, part of the excitement is the 90th minute away winners, or whichever, there are so many reasons fans are vital.

If they farm games to Asia, Middle East, States etc... they’re just alienating the local fans, but j guess, do they really care about the local fans?
what's more important? One local fan or 20 Chinese fans? All about the money.

IF this thing happens I will sever any subscriptions, I have no interest in watching any of them ever again. I have no interest in the 6 clubs leaving. I think the Premier League will be better without them!!

The PL will be impoverished without them.

really what saying?

is it still Purslow?

 

[LocalNative]

Cup final has to be cancelled and voided on Sunday surely?

 

[Toffee-nerd]

As useless as he is, the threat of regulation or legislation is the only thing that can kill this for good.

Let it happen. If they want this let it happen, fans will walk and the house of cards will crumble. Football will reset and in 20 years time we will all be fuming how we lost the derby to tranmere for the 17th game on the bounce.

Yeah.

Like Purslow would have the same view if he were at Liverpool. Rat.

I don't think they've even misread anything, they were all well aware of the feelings after their attempt at a power grab with Project Big Picture last year, they just don't care and will do all they can to gain more power/money.

Should revert to semi-finals, a four team draw between Everton, Stoke, Newcastle and Brentford.
