Apart from the obvious money benefit, I fail to see how Spurs and Arsenal fans are going to enjoy getting bent over every week.
I think these owners forget something - you only gain a fan base outside of the city you are in when you are successful. How many overseas fans do Spurs think they are going to attract whilst languishing at the bottom of the SL?
So far these teams are working on the assumption that they will be allowed to continue in the domestic leagues, if the players are banned from all domestic competitions, would they want to continue? - It would be nice to see some reaction from some of these teams current players
So they want an extra few hundred million quid to then come back and ruin a PL which is already skewed in their favour. They’ll hoover up good players from average PL teams and make it more of a procession. They’ll ruin domestic cup competitions by not giving a fuck and they’ll still fucking whinge they are playing too many games.
Cunts. Sure, they can have their own little hollow league, but fuck off for good and leave domestic football to those who value it.
I think this is it… if they want to break away , then do it, and dont whinge about not being part of the domestic leagues… but the real shitty thing is them wanting BOTH… mind you domestic situation is already fucked given the disparity in income…
The ESL has sent a letter to Fifa president Gianni Infantino and Uefa boss Aleksander Ceferin issuing notice of legal proceedings in European courts designed to block any sanctions the two governing bodies may try enforce over the formation of the ESL
From the BBC, tells us all we need to know about these twats
If the courts can block conditions of a private competition- not had much luck before.
If they cant then teams playing them should take a knee then turn their backs and not play
We really are irrelevant.
Whatever we do will not matter.
The millions of fans around the world who go to World Cup fan zones the BeiN sports subscribers, these are the future fans.
Kick them out?
They wont care, they can make their money playing in Tokyo, Abu Dhabi, New York.
The TV rights money will grow because they can change kick off times to local markets.
Spurs v Inter at 5am UK time who cares because Amazon or DAZN will have their subscriptions
Kick them out today.
Revoke the Golden Shares.
They’ll make their money they’ll buy African, Asian South American talent, and lots of kids will join their Academies for money not glory.
Indeed, it does make me laugh (bitter sweet) with all the ‘will fans stand for it’ rhetoric … the fans at games provide only a small fraction of these club’s revenue… the ex-domestic TV audience has the biggest potential for revenue and its all that matters…
Will be interesting when they all start arguing about % versus negotiating their own rights…
Indeed they can… but they won’t. If they do, they reduce the commercial value of their own competitions if the worlds best players are excluded… and their own financial obsession will win out… or you get a breakaway global authority …WFF (World Football Federation) that just run its own world cup… its how this shit starts
Not sure they will launch their own governing body - why the hell would they want some one else telling them what to do, having just got rid of the last lot
More likely that as they expand their franchise by allowing clubs like Miami or Boca Juniors to join, they will just call it the world championship
