    If they have the balls to kick the 6 out I’d watch it next season.

    When I was young all I ever wanted was to win the Scottish Cup :56:

    European success was a fairytale. That's why the big cup is so magical.

    Ozil nailed it with the fact that the big important games should be few and far between to keep them special.

    Think it was @James that said, if this kicks off they will be glorified friendlies with next to no interest. Already splits among the signed up clubs apparently. I can't see it happening at this rate in all honesty, certainly not in August anyway.

    The hypocrisy at all levels over this is fantastic .... and only betrays the root issue at the heart of it...

    MONEY

    epl clubs missing out against it
    Upper championship clubs hoping for an epl boost all for it.
    Lower championship clubs not benefiting against it
    Spanish clubs not invited against it.
    Spanish clubs in their own rich cartel all for it
    German clubs against as they didn’t think of it first
    PSG hedging their bets as they know there will be an open invite down the line
    Pundits upset as it will see their demand plummet
    Tv companies unhappy - until they get the ESL contract

    MAGIC !

    A lot of football fans goading into the destruction of Uefa not looking at long term. Clubs should be backing Uefa better devil you know

    All these * with their faux outrage and morals. Where is this when their clubs are running up and operating with 100's of millions in debt, playing with massive unfair advantages ? They don't mind their clubs doing that do they, as long as they get to win the bestestest league in the world.

    * them. Kick every team out of their domestic league and let them * off and have their wee * tournament. Sure it'll be good for a few years then *, don't let them back in after.

    Dont give the broadcasters the licences to broadcast. No customers, no money.

    That’s what it all comes down to because they are no longer centre stage. It’s crazy how money can make people lose their mind in the space of 24 hours.

    Whether this goes ahead or not will be down to the broadcasters I feel. If they want to put their money towards the ESL rather than the Champions League and national leagues then that's what will drive the idea into action.

    Next would be the players. How many would feel like Ander Herrera and object to the idea of playing in a breakaway league? I guess the ones who only care about the biggest paycheck would sign up for it.

    Wouldn’t be long until they change their names too no doubt. The London Hotspurs v The Red Devil’s In the SuperLeague Final IV live from Atlanta with Bruno Mars performing at Half time :99:

    People want rid of UEFA because it's corrupt but happy for Juventus to run the tournaments from now on.
