I think the super league will flop. Stadiums will be empty and the global base is still not strong enough to substitute the local fan bases. in 2-3 years the competition will go under and we will be in the nationwide fucking conference
They would have been financially fucked with or without COVID, it just accelerated the process. Barca and Real were in massive debt long before the pandemic.
Perez has been talking about this ESL since 2009.
Wonder how many years before they start playing some of the games in China and the US 
I wouldn’t be opposed to a new super league or revamp of the champions league but only if you were in it by merit , I know that would exclude us this season at least , but I think part of the joy of our champions league run was because we qualified (albeit not by being champions) this new super league is just like a load of midweek friendlies ! It’s bollox and it’s all about the cash!
UEFA are still set to make an announcement later on.
Apparently it's less to do with the new CL format and more with throwing the book at the rogue 12

I'd say 2. They'll let the dust settle and it will start with 1 or 2 games each a season and snowball from there.Wonder how many years before they start playing some of the games in China and the US
Didn't Barca and RM block La Liga games in the US?Wonder how many years before they start playing some of the games in China and the US
It's going to go ahead unfortunately. All of the clubs including us have withdrawn from the European Club Association. (No me neither)
Won't even win the conference either because City, United, Liverpool etc will all be in it too
They can make life a living hell for the club's. See new tax rates specifically for the ESL.
Fancy withdrawing from the champions league when you got no hope of qualifying in the first place!
Are we officially out?
They always embarrass themselves as well. Blair pretending he watched Jackie Milburn, Cameron mixing up Aston Villa and West Ham ... the last one that had any genuine interest was Major.

We seem to be getting a lot of piss taken out of us for being involved yet until this season we were a Champions League regular and were in the final 2 years ago. A lot of jealousy from other fans of clubs not involved is coming out.
wenger is talking about it all on talksport at 10:30 - I never would look forward to an interview with that man but I cctually wanna hear what he has to say on this
