    Let them go.

    Let the global brands leave. I will not fight for them.

    They are all boring as *.

    * off I say.

    Nope, it’s DAZN that’s mainly behind this. I get your point though.

    This comes in then we will be buying Southamptons best players. The snake will have discovered he's traded down.

    As an added bonus it's a big * you to UEFA

    This will be the way it goes.. the “franchise “will move to wherever the money is tbh, like the American football, etc...Real Shanghai and so on. I got bored of watching another game of the top 20 sides in Europe playing each other years ago, due to the money making league system before the knock out stages in European cup games.Let them go .

    They can throw all the money they want at it but the thing is people need to want to tune in if people actually stuck to watching their own team or domestic league more and give it a * steer then it would fail

    I think this would be a real opportunity for a club like Celtic.

    A reshuffle to European leagues would create new continental leagues opportunities or leave vacuums in leagues like England that Celtic could fill.

    Young people often follow success above their local team. Also money would come from Asia, they care about Man United, if they never saw Fulham again I doubt they would care

    Is this FIFA backed? Obviously completely disagree with it but I cannot be having Sky getting on their high horse about this. They have ruined football and are trying to create essentially the same thing with the English football.

    To me, I don't think a UEFA wide structure is that bad - one that involves all teams, perhaps regionally the further down you go. But I'm not having Sky giving it the bigun about this and how it will make football elitest and money orientated. Almost as bad as Rangers calling out Slavia Prague for being racist despite being the KKK of football.

    Pot. Kettle. Black etc. They are clearly just * it because of everything they have invested in the Prem.

    I think they'll be in for an absolute shock.

    100 per cent of fans will say they should * off.

    so let lem. All they are is a brand now. Spanish Manchester United Away supporters. Italian Arsenal Fans.

    Away ye go. Abandoning your roots.

    Leeds United. Roma. Seville. These Teams will rule Europe Now. * off Ya wanks.

    Call their bluff. Expel the clubs from their national leagues, strip them of their honours, and ban everyone associated with them - most importantly their owners - from the sport indefinitely.

    Greed has destroyed the game. It is time to wrestle it back from oligarchs. Leave the 'super clubs' to play in empty stadia to entertain TV audiences on the other side of the world.

    We will be closer to the new Top 5 Elite. Their Television Deals will now be split from the Super League to their Domestic League.

    The Billion quid contracts will be cut in half. I think this will close the gap between Celtic and the rest of the top 5 leagues. Its a fundamentally good thing.

    I hope the courts can fight strongly to ensure their players never play in Fifa or Uefa Competitions. In reality they will.


    It still might be rejected by their fans. Barcelona, Liverpool. I think their own supporters would vote to tell the super league to * off. So would the Milan Clubs.

    This will face strong opposition from within.

    The rest are plastic fuckwits already a lost cause.

    No. FIFA, UEFA, and all of the national associations have condemned it.

    The so called BeNe league is at an advanced stage with clubs actually voting for it, talks are still ongoing but they are trying to get this in for 2025. That’s when both leagues current TV deals finish.

    They have backtracked then it was widely reported back in October fifa along with several English clubs backed the European super league format along with others. Think the main player looking to form this is JP Morgan which makes sense as it was only a matter of time the EPL bubble burst and they would be playing in the states.

    As disgusting as it is, it's an inevitability. Clubs like ours should have been making moves with others like Ajax, Feyenoord, Galatasaray and the like a long time ago.

    We are not in the EPL.

    You are right. The Uefa Champions League will lose its best teams. What will come of this.

    Within 1 season. Its best teams will be from other huge footballing cities in Europe. Initially there will be a loss in revenue. That will restore itself.

    There's hundreds, if not thousands of teams in Europe. The champions League will change for the better if they leave.

    The SPFL already has a breadcrumbs deal without any of the global elite. They give us nothing as it is. That won't change.

    Don't have much sympathy for UEFA. They have fed this beast by giving priority to 4th place in the Premier League over 1st place in the unfashionable leagues, for example. And their proposals for the new Champions League format were an effort to appease these super-rich clubs even further. Yet now they are crying foul about greed. Do me a favour.
