Champions League revamp

[ForeverBlue92]

The more difficult the bodies make it for players to play elsewhere due to this league, the more the league struggles to exist in my book.

But why force people to stay who clearly want out?

Its madness just let them go.

There’s only Leeds, Palace and Fulham that have made any sort of comment from what I’ve seen

Doesn’t excuse us.

Barcelona are ridiculously skint right now; there’s no way they’re backing down out of something as lucrative as this. Only hope they have us the new old president seems more decent than the last.

And Real. They're close to a billion euros in debt.

Where’s our club statement?

Big Ussy still got his eye on those 3 open slots

Bit different for them; they’re essentially owned by the bank.

 

[Nymzee]

To me any large club that doesn’t come and and condemn this looks like they’re in a “if you ask us we’ll play” position.

Meaning

Essentially they shouldn't fear losing money now when the alternative is having the money permanently rerouted away from them and the sport to a select few pockets.

Im not saying keep them, but they bring around 70% of the leagues revenue.

Which means Everton would have to operate at around 30% of its current levels.

Thats a LOT of pay cuts like.

You mean till after we’ve all bowed down to their demands.

I think City will be the first to fold....

Don't see it at all. Doubt there would be the votes anyway.

Does it even need votes? Surely it’s just down to what the FA wants to do. If some clubs don’t want them kicked out but the FA do it anyway they’re not going to kick up a fuss.

It's clearly not the players fault, it's their employers. But this league will look a bit silly if the top players aren't allowed to play anywhere else or don't want to play in it
