If there are no punishments then this comes back on the table very soon. It's all gone predictably quiet and I sense we will look back at this period if UEFA and the PL fail to act.

Premier League: Executives from ESL clubs forced to quit advisory roles
Executives at clubs involved in the failed European Super League are forced to resign from advisory roles at the Premier League.

Can't help but laugh when you see things like this, about the positions the chief execs held in the league, then at the bottom "Tottenham's had no role"
They are an absolutely irrelevant club. Amazes me how they got involved in this.

London-based team. Rich owner. New stadium. Bugger all to do with their on-field success or lack thereof.

They must have wanted a couple of London based clubs so they went for Spurs and Arsenal.Premier League: Executives from ESL clubs forced to quit advisory roles

They havebt gone away, but the project has proven to be financially inviable at this point.
In honesty I wouldnt read too much into this BT stuff. I'd imagine the decision is as much based around BTs thinking as anything else.

You need to have a bit more faith tbh. The UEFA officials seem to have it all under control after meeting with the clubs:

I did wonder but the words are too long.
The Premier League is to bring in a new owners' charter to stop future attempts to join a breakaway Super League.
It follows Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham agreeing to join the failed European Super League last month.
All owners will have to sign up to the new rule "committing them to the core principles" of the league with breaches punished by "significant" sanctions.
The league said "a few clubs cannot be allowed to create such division".
The Super League proposal, which also included some of Europe's biggest clubs, collapsed within 72 hours after widespread criticism from fans, players and governing bodies and politicians.
The Premier League said it is "determined" to "hold those clubs accountable for their decisions and actions".
"We and the FA are pursuing these objectives quickly and appropriately, consulting with fans and government," it said.

The main thing for me is that if they do form a "super league", they are banned from all national leagues. I don't really care if the rs leave and play the same few teams again and again until everyone is bored with it in a few years, but I do care if some clubs are allowed to stay in a national league whilst getting £350 million extra every year. If that happens you may as well disband the league.

I must be losing it. Is that a pint of Guinness Nev's got in front of him?
I'm hopeful the Premier League and the FA are going about this the right way.
A calm, careful and firm response is needed for the good of all football. Explicitly creating rules to ban clubs from partaking in breakaway leagues is the only way to stop this happening at some point. The best result for the game is that these clubs are meaningfully punished, whipped back into line, and prevented from ever trying this again.
The precise wording of these new rules, how they will be enforced - and by whom - is what will take care and, ideally coordination between the Premier League, FA, UEFA and government.
I'm fine with the work to accomplish this being done quietly and diligently, so long as the end result is one we can be satisfied with.
