    Just what we need lets make the epl even richer, 6 of them are definitely in CL



    From BBC,

    The final matches in the Premier League take place on Sunday and there is still a scenario in which 10 of the teams would be playing in European competition in 2025-26.

    We have a similar percentage each year. All getting a bit out of hand really, but anything to stop the super league

    It is a super league now, by the backdoor... They've guaranteed positions to every team they want to be in Europe, unless they manage to * up domestically like utd this year...

    UEFA and FIFA were moving towards heavier commercialism above the importance of football with or without sky being there.

    I’d love to see the turmoil they’d all be in if the super league scenario resurfaced..

    I would like to see it happen as well… just to see the chaos and panic that would set in. EPL panic… tv company panic… uefa and fifa panic.. oh my!

    I don’t think any organisation should have the right to keep an indeterminate grip on its member clubs. Would we all be happy if we had the exclusive opportunity to leave the spfl and play in a European league set up but got stopped by the SFA, courts and Scottish government.

    I know it won’t really change the wealth.. but it will change where it goes to some extent as the EPLs tv income would drop dramatically as the ‘tourist’ fans all abandoned it to go wherever their ‘big’ team was playing and with it give their money to whichever tv channel was forking out for it.

    Bring it on and bring them down.

    The irony of it would be hilarious, as the Premier league was set up so top tier clubs didn't have to share with the other three tiers.

    I still think it will happen one day, probably be UEFA who set it up. and if associations stop their players from representing their own country the Super league will just have its own international teams, with its own World Cup.

    4 has been embarrassing, I don't think anybody should be surprised at UEFAs greed. 4 new CL spots and only 1 extra handed to league champions

    Guaranteed to least play 1 or 2 if we make champions league also makes draw harder on other teams as English clubs can’t play one another in group phase which is *

    So, 9 teams in Europe overall.

    Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City, Newcastle, Chelsea and Tottenham in the Champions League.
    Aston Villa and Crystal Palace in the Europa League.
    Nottingham Forest in the Conference League.

    Absolute joke.

    That's 45% of teams in the league, Scotland has 41.6% of teams in it. I don't have an issue with 9 teams, I have more of an issue with 8 of them automatically qualifying. The teams that came 4th and 5th should not have auto CL spots when only about 10 league champions auto qualify, and only the cup winners should have auto EL.
