Chuckles, so Notts County could just turn up the the premier league and demand to play?

Still I’m sure the FA could expel them through the fit and proper owner test….Pagan

Chuckles, there may be a clause somewhere that prohibits team’s playing in other competitions during the season without the leagues permission, there usually is in grassroots leagues, and their league rules are usually guided by the pro rules…..Pagan

So we have 6 clubs, all of which have moaned and whined that they play too many games, now wanting to play more of them.

They’ve already binned off replays in the cup competitions to the detriment of all the other clubs, what next? No league cup? They only come into the FA Cup at round 5 or 6, maybe even at the quarter final stage, not content with putting the clubs in the lower leagues on the breadline, they now want to destroy them, they think they can spin a bit of a loss in revenue for a couple of seasons into a power/money grab, could almost have a bit of sympathy for them if they were as dependent on gate money as the lower leagues, but they aren’t. As for Chelsea, they forked out of £200m during the pandemic, so they have absolutely no grounds for pleading poverty.

What I don’t get is they sat down and thought it was a good idea, well it’s about as good an idea as JFKs to take the open top limo out for a spin round Dallas. Sure I expect they thought there’d be some resistance from other club’s fans, but surely the reaction from their own home based fans must be a bit of a shock to them, then again the English market is a very small percentage of the big teams fan base…..Pagan

On the bright side 9, should Chelsea win the CL this season, as it may be the last one, they’d probably be able to keep the original trophy…..Pagan

VAR, it’s a great idea Chuckles, and with its seamless introduction, we’ve hardly noticed it’s introduction…..Pagan

Got to give Neville some credit, he was fuming and still managed not to use any expletives……Pagan

The big difference between a revised CL and the “European Super League” will be who holds the broadcasting rights.

Welcome home Chuckles….Pagan

Ed, Well they either expel the teams involved or forever become beholding to them.

Get rid of them and give us our game back….Pagan

9, this isn’t war, this is pest control, as the Dalek Sec said.

They’re obviously not content with taking power bit by bit and want to take it in one grab, either way they take power it’s just how long…..Pagan

9, Negotiate?, no, lay down the law, 6 teams can’t hold 90% of the power, I’m with Neville on this, give them the Rangers treatment…..Pagan

Nil, Hinckley Town could be an option for you.

If they want to go, let them, in fact kick them out now, and don’t let the back…..Pagan

Welcome to the global game, games played at times to suit the targeted audience, not to bad for the Far East market but terrible for the matches aimed at the States.

Matches played in China, India the USA etc. Fans a secondary consideration, the TV audience is the main market with all the sponsorship and advertising revenue it brings.

Problem is without the fans, both home and away there’s no atmosphere and eventually the spectacle ceases to be. Would be funny if it all went tits up and the domestic leagues refused to take them back…..Pagan

9, how many PL clubs have to vote for something for it to be passed? If it’s only 14, they could vote on on any club indicating setting up another league can be expelled….Pagan

Ding Ding I’m on the bus, F**k you!

If this happens then the top clubs will lose what makes English football so good, travelling fans, the away day becomes prohibitively expensive. The whole English game will either implode, or if we’re lucky become what it was, the people’s game.

I’d be happy to see them exiled from all domestic competitions, leagues and cups…..Pagan

Brian, from a general sports perspective I like to see things done that people say can’t be.

As the Arsenal fans will tell you, their ladies did the quad years ago…..Pagan

Didn’t get to see the game as we’re into cricket season, happy as a Chelsea fan that Chelsea are through to the final, but as a general sports fan a little disappointed that Man City can’t now do the Quad……Pagan

MistraMoos, that depends on tactics, are they right and left backs that go forwards when the opportunity arises, or, right and left sided midfielders who come back when needed. The phrases like wing backs and number 10s are pundit talk, as are formations, tactics are totally different…..Pagan

It was always going to be a difficult game for Liverpool mentally, you need two goals to go through, but if you concede one then you need four…..Pagan

Bit embarrassing when you’re not allowed any fans and you still have to apologise for their behaviour…..Pagan
