One decent Asian player is enough to bankroll a shit club though.

Competition European Super League OFF; Spurs face withdrawal fee

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
I'm not supporting spurs after this, not something I ever thought I'd say...fuck this no point, not what I fell in love with
Same absolutely disgraceful.
I’m not convinced. The 250m is a “sign on” bonus, I’d be absolutely shocked if the financials for this league would replace the earnings from league, CL, FA and LC that a club like us can earn annually.
Also factor in the fan reaction of not playing in the local league, no derbies with West Ham etc.
I completely disagree with the notion that if the PL kick us out it’s water off a ducks back.
In relation to your point about PL finances, that’s going to happen to a smaller scale anyway. This absolutely dilutes the value of the PL as a commodity, especially to foreign fans. TV revenue for the PL will drop significantly. The PL need a ballsy move.
I'll always keep an eye of them but I'm done spending any money on them.
Seriously, anyone got a decent EFL club?
Fuck it, maybe I'll just start watching Rugby instead.
Good luck selling your world Cup in Qatar to sponsors lads
Now the announcement is out, I'm trying to look for positives.
Yes at the moment we'd be the whipping boys but if Jose goes, spend the money well, we could easily become competitive.
I'm not for it but then I hated the Champions League when it became the champions and three others.
Obviously they just need to stop at this plan. No 39th game. No international 'home' games in the Hard Rock Stadium, Miami but if they do that it could become watchable.
Plus it can help us in the Premier League which I still wanna win.
So it's wrong yes but, when the smoke clears, it might be ok.

How long do you think these guys have really been discussing this Super League? I just read on the New York Times website how Perez was going on about each founding club having a state of the art stadium.
Surely this had nothing to do with our stadium being built, right?

8 billion people on the planet, enough will that it'll be the richest sporting event in the world.
I agree with u. Footballs gone to shit and now unless your top tier in that league u get scraps joke and will kill loads of hardworking teams
I never thought I'd say this.
I hope Brexit will somehow be a good thing to keep this from happening?
Feels weird.

Pochettino's legacy at Tottenham is now understood.
He turned us from a club on the same level as Aston Villa into a Champions League club.
That's why we're now in the European Super Club. That's why our financial future is now secure for the next million years.
Pochettino deserves a statue outside the ground.

Pays for the debt of our stadium.
Whether this happens or not it changes everything for me, don't know what to think.
The move isn’t designed to actually remove them from the league, it’s leverage to discuss this not happening.
PL revenues are about to nose dive either way. This super league massively dilutes the value of the PL as a commodity.
It would be remiss of the league to bend over and take it without fighting back.
Now that can't be true. 2 of them play in the San Siro and Chelsea play at fucking Stamford Bridge.
If they're going to start this in August then this must've been in the works for years. Conspiracy is a foot!
