Champions League revamp

Can we watch other competitions? Such as the Premier League or F.A Cup?
If you watch any of them greedy sods, shame on you. Do what you like mate but don't moan about them wanting more money etc. Seems to hurt your feelings suggesting not watching one of the scab 6, something you're not telling us?
 


Odds on us still not getting European football haha



Extremely high, since from what I'm reading this will only apply to clubs that do not formally withdraw. Reports indicate that Atletico and the Scab Six have already mucked their cards. UEFA is leaning on the rest because at nine withdrawals the project legally folds.

It's not clear what the financial implications might be at that point, but you could argue that Juve, Madrid and Barca are playing their cards this way because they need immediate funds to meet immediate obligations and because they're all in need of a rebuild. No European fixtures for two years lets them hit a reset button and play their kids. It also might be why Juve is potentially in for Kean.

Or maybe they are staying in it as it means the other clubs who pulled out have to pay them massive fees as reported.

What other reason do they have to stay when they cant start the league with 4 teams and they know they may get punished by UEFA?

Also, has any English team officially pulled out? I know they all said they were and some said they had started the process but is there any official confirmation they are out?

Be interesting once they sign this new PL rule

There will almost certainly have to be some sort of financial compensation for withdrawal, which will almost certainly not be the sum Perez has quoted, if the league remains intact. If the charter dissolves, we don't have any information on what happens. It could be the case that if nine clubs withdraw simultaneously, no financial compensation will occur - though that's far from certain.

Nothing is published confirming official withdrawal by any of the clubs, but the report (by very credible journalists) indicates that the seven indicated clubs have cut a deal with UEFA to withdraw in order to avoid the European ban, that UEFA is leaning on the two Milan clubs and that Inter is closer to agreeing.
 
Getting to pee me of a bit now. Two of the three clubs, Man U and Arsenal, have turned it round and all these protests are about them wanting rid of their owners. Very few of them are talking about not wanting to go into the proposed SL. On a side note, just seen a MU supp on Sky, didnt see the full interview, saying that under OGS that Utd are making progress by reaching the final of the EL- how can that be progress when the got knocked out of CL and put into this comp?
