New European super league?

Probably just Madrid and Barcelona realising that their bubble has burst and La Liga is behind the PL and the Bundesliga and is probably gonna end up behind the Serie A soon. 

This is Agnelli at Juventus driving this. You can't blame him, even he must be bored of winning Serie A every year. Bayern and PSG will be as bored and Barca and Madrid never appear that bothered which of them wins it. But for Klopp City would be well on their way to 10 in a row.

 

I'd be up this, Lisbon and Lyon can become our new West Ham and Leicester. I don't get tired of playing Man Utd so I can't see what why I'd get bored playing Barca twice a year. Bring it on or at least bring it to the point that geebag from Everton is apologising to us and begging for forgiveness.

I’ve not looked at any of the previous pages, but is this different to the FIFA summer tournament proposal?

 

 

Yes.

That would be it for me 128 years of history in this league built by such legends as Shanks and Paisley tossed aside to play in some over hyped money ball tournament fuck off.It will not be the same football club anymore.

Did we not chuck that out when we formed the premier league and started playing kids in the fa cup?

Yes but that's why the Football League introduced the midweek Football League Cup, to try and head off the top First Division clubs entering the new fledgling European competitions.

 

I didnt realise until recently, the old Fairs Cup was run by FIFA. UEFA only took up ownership when it was rebranded as the UEFA Cup. Neither would we likely have played much in European club football if the old Inter Cities Fairs Cup had stuck to its original concept where only cities that held trade fairs could enter.

 

Guess it depends where you stand regarding changes. Each has their own view point.

[Aventus]

Bit shit, but if it happens we might as well jump on board. If this happened 10 years ago we wouldn't have been able to join any potential super league because we were so shit. No chance we were getting an invite when we had the Hodge. 

And if that was the case then we would struggle even more to get back into that top table, it'd be over and we'd be sat with Everton growing more bitter as we age. 

 

Make lemonade when the sun shines or whatever the saying is. 

[ZonkoVille77]

I'm sick of the cheating and corruption in the PL so I'm all for it. Imagine the amount of Orcs we'd piss off by not being in a league with them? Well worth it.

[Leyton388]

We will not be breaking away from the Prem. This will replace the CL. 

[Harry Squatter]

Technically it would be a breakaway as the money from it would be so vast compared to the teams not in it and all the best players of teams not in it would want to just play for the 4 or 5 teams in it.

 

Basically a closed shop Champions league.

[ben48]

At least we would get decent officials

It feels wrong, but I increasingly care less about how things feel.

 

I've had enough of shit-munching peasants hurling abuse about Heysel, Hillsborough, Slippy G etc etc ad infinitum, but when it comes to it, they're only too happy to ride our coat-tails to broadcast riches that, quite frankly, their own level of support doesn't come anywhere near to justifying.

 

With this, and Big Picture, it seems the crime of clubs like United and Liverpool is to know their value to the league and to try to assert it.

 

How many people do we think paid 15 quid to watch West Brom v Burnley on pay per view?

 

Now how many do you think would pay it to watch Liverpool v United?

 

Without the big clubs the West Hams and Fulhams and Evertons of the world have NOTHING. No product, no money, no anything. Fuck them in their ears. I'm through with having to pretend that these no-marks are our peers, I'm done with the disrespect, the deliberate attempts to injure our players. They had it and they blew it. The golden geese are flying off and they're taking their golden eggs with them.

Yup. In a social context, the idea of being constricted & cut off from the rest of the continent on this horrible grey rock post-Brexit also becomes more depressing by the day. Let LFC be the grand global force that Everton, Burnley, West Ham & their ilk cannot and will not ever be.

[mgw100]

This may feel like a great idea while we're riding high with Klopp. For most of the last 30 years we'd have been comfortably in the bottom half of the table.

 

 

[dockers_strike]

Whatever your own feeling about this Euro Super League, you got to admit fat cunt samuel, his mates and all the oppo fans fuming at this is quite amusing.

 

Samuel's indignation can be summed up thus

 

[KevieG]

If part of the idea is to bring back Inter and AC Milan as forces, Marseille, Benfica and so on then why not. 

 

It would be the icing on the cake if they excluded Man City and Chelsea.

[VladimirIlyich]

This whole suggestions sounds exactly what United were threatening to do back in the 1990s and were condemned,rightly,yet now we are part of their plans and people are welcoming it. Fuck that.

I'm all for it, fuck the FA and the premier league... 

Me too. After all the shit we've gotten off both of them over the years I'd be happy to fuck it off. Fuck them, fuck all those other small time clubs and their null and void cunt supporters as well. I hope the lot of them go bust

[Ronnie Whelan]

As much as I'd love to piss off all the horrible bastards out there, I don't like this at all.

 

I actually would prefer if some really historic clubs like Ajax, Benfica, Celtic or some of those legendary Eastern European teams became forces again. I don't like the current format where it is pretty much the same 12 teams in the quarter final every year. It's a rarity that countries like Hungary and Bulgaria qualify anyone these days.

 

They need to find a way of spreading the wealth not keeping it in the hands of the same  lucky few. I know say Rangers and Celtic, or Levski Sofia say are shit but I'd much rather play them in a group game than the 4th team of Spain.

Think that happened when we swapped the European Cup, although it benefitted us.

But do get your point.

[JagSquared]

I’m not a fan of this idea but if it happens then I definitely want us to be in it. 
 

hypothetically if the idea is to have a European super league which teams would they want in it?
 

Liverpool

united 

Man City

chelsea

real madrid

barcelona

juventus 

inter

PSG

Marseille? 
bayern

dortmund

Benfica 

Porto

ajax

galatasaray?

zenit ?

shakhtar ?

Im not sure how you distribute it without favouring England, Germany, Italy and Spain which is a big fuck you to the other countries not to mention some historically big clubs.

 

 

[Colonel Bumcunt]

I would love it personally, but I don't see it being achievable.

 

Fans at the other clubs, the ones also in this new league, would be up in arms about it and they have actual power at their clubs. 

 

If this is just a cheap shot at the PL and the FA, then it's been badly thought-out. 

[Davelfc]

Football started a long and painful death when Sky took over. It just isn't what it was when most of us were younger. It's a million miles from what it was when Shanks and Bob managed us. 

 

I'd rather watch us play footballing teams than a bunch of hoofers lumping our players around. The shite teams that do not even attempt to play football get a fortune from our best efforts, fuck them.

Takes some doing that.

[Captain Howdy]

I’d be all for it, especially if it meant fucking the PL off, I agree with what SD said let the hangers on drift into insignificance in their own spite and bile. There would be zero interest in the PL without us and Utd

[aws]

It's supposed to be five teams from England. Hope it's City who miss out if it happens.

Clubs like Celtic, Ajax and Benfica could be every bit as big a club anyone else if they were in this. Who wouldn't want to play for Ajax if the standard of opposition was as good as the PL for example? A top player would rather live in Amsterdam or Lisbon than Manchester if the pay and chance of success were equal.
