Champions League revamp

Not open for further replies.
Cannot stand Klopp at all but he definitely did say that his opinion has not changed and he is still against a super league and that it was all done behind his back and doesn't know anything else about it. Very damning really and probably about as far as he could go on live TV considering that they are his employers.

Still a tosser and will always be a tosser but a tosser that is against the super league.

Its true though - if all 14 other clubs have ambition and believe of qualifying for the top 4 or winning the league one day they would be slamming these 6 clubs.

Do you really think WBA's owners or Mike Ashley want to rock their gravy train? They aint arsed if the top 6 dominate for eternity as long as they keep their piece of the PL pie.

Chuck them out or keep them in with concessions - they'll opt for the latter everyday of the week.

I'll be shocked if anything happens at the meeting tomorrow other than pandering and small words if I was going off Parish although tbf to the slave driver he might have been keeping his powder dry.

They only have the gravy train for as long as they are in the Prem.

If the 6 are gone they actually have a better shot at staying in the Prem every year rather than yo-yo ing like in recent years

It isn’t “true”, it’s your opinion. As I’ve said before when you have forgotten your medication; You struggle with the difference between “small” and “far away”
Btw. I’ll be shocked if anything happens tomorrow. This is complex. If you’re expecting it to be resolved tomorrow you will be disappointed. Again.
 
Whilst everyone is enjoying riding on their high horses, any chance we can get the Champions League back on ITV like? You know seeing as greed is ruining the game and all that.

Can we get some fan ownership at clubs? we apparently matter loads now, Boris even said we are boss.

Can we take this opportunity to tell Mike Riley that he and his team of 'kin cronies are unfit for purpose?

Can we as one of the biggest and most established clubs in the country make our voice heard?

Yeah, I thought his words were pretty strong given I was expecting him to say nothing and just cliched "managers manage, players play football, we don't look at the business side of things, etc, etc."

Because the billions from their little side project aren't enough. They want their share, or rather an unfair and disproportionate share, of the Premier League's TV money too.

But it just won't work. Can you imagine the table in 4 different colours denoting which clubs qualify for which competition. "So Leicester finish 6th which gets them into the Champions League. Arsenal meanwhile are relegated for the first time in their history but still go into the European Super League". It's just not going to work.
 
I wouldn't be at all surprised if a trophy is awarded after every single game to create 'drama' for dead rubbers.

"Neither side can qualify for the knockout stage but stay tuned to see who the Double Choc Chip Ice Cream Champions will be!"

The ironic thing is that Sky are bombing our switchboard about making a statement after years of telling us to know our place .

Cannot wait for JP Morgan to go bankrupt during the next financial crisis and the whole thing goes up in smoke and every team in it is expunged from history.

They will get bailed out.. again. The whole system stinks. Looks like Wall Street has got its claws into our game.

What I mean is that he's probably dead middle of the road in terms of preferences. Fronts a historically successful club that's not a yo-yo club, doesn't have the trophy case of Everton or Villa, been up a good while now, safely mid-table.

He wants the same as you. A competitive Premier League with the best teams in it, and fair, established access to and from it.
