When the government said remain in a bubble of six and don't let others join this isn't what they meant

This might be the best post I’ve ever seen 

[leicesterisme]

Get them out of out league immediately and when it inevitably goes tits up make them start at the very bottom of the pyramid. 

[Unabomber]

This is all very surreal isn’t it

Actually feel sorry for proper fans of those clubs, vast majority of them will be dead against this.

Then they need to react with the passion and fury I’m feeling right now. This isn’t fan led, it’s led by greed, pure and simple. The fans of everyone of these Judas clubs need to revolt as one and strangle the life out of this abomination. 
 

oh and when these big sux teams come whimpering back they should ALL be made to start again in the lowest league and fight their way back to the top. 
 

I tell you, I’m fuching raging.

The absoulte ****ing cheek of clubs below us in the league to call themselves "leading".

 

**** off and die.

Scared of having to qualify for something by the merits of their football on the pitch, the very crux of sporting achievement. Cowards the lot of them.

The FA have been so corrupt with these big teams by giving them all the decisions they want and it’s now come back to bite them  

[GlennyFox55]

This is absolutely mental. Football ending during a pandemic. What times are we living through man. 

[RoboFox]

It’s finally happened. Football has eaten itself.

[BlueSi13]

This has got to be it.  ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.  

 

They should be kicked out of the Premier/Football League tonight.  All of their Premier League titles should be wiped.  We should be gifted the 2020 title.  No more of this absolute shit.  Let them **** off and never bother us again.

 

Would also love the Government to get rid of their license to actually conduct business within this countries borders.  Turn their stadiums in to Sunday League pitches.

 

Personally if they aren't at least kicked out of our pyramid then that's probably me done with football.

Tell you what though guys it’s quite nice sitting back knowing that we caused this....  

[Ian Nacho]

Man United vs Hyde will be a cracker. 

[Unabomber]

Hopefully they take VAR with them and we can get rid of that too.

I bet the authorities do nothing but bend over in the end 

 

Both sides will compromise. I stand by what I said earlier, they won't actually follow through with this it's a threat. 

 

It happened in rugby a few years ago, the French and English teams wanted to change the power balance in the Heineken Cup and do a deal with BT Sports for more money, so they essentially ditched it and threatened to make their own competition. 

 

We had two years of rangling and arguing and pulling back and forth before all parties agreed on a new format, payment structure, qualification rules etc and what we've ended up with is fundamentally the same tournament we had before. 

 

I doubt we'll see wholesale change. I assume that the plans that this group had for the new format champions league have stalled and so they're throwing their toys out the pram with this in a big power move to get their own way.

Sorry if this is posted elsewhere but I could not see a thread. If the six teams of Man U, Man City, Liv, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs go off to do this and then, as stated by the governing bodies, can’t play in the Prem or English Cups....does that make us the best team in England? Sounds a good idea to me.

That’s not low enough.

Bet Sheffield United will be happy they will be staying up.

I know, they are posting as if they've appointed a new CEO or something.

 

"We are joining a new League" and that is it. Incredible.

Yeah?  Well **** off out of ours now then you dribbling excuses for humanity. See how it goes ya bunch of know nothing heroes. 

[Mike Oxlong]

Looks like we can lose all our remaining fixtures and still make Champions League next season

This episode of football has gone very left

The logo they’ve gone with is crap aswell 

[Koke]

I normally hate this phrase but the game has truly gone.

[Ian Nacho]

Does this essentially mean we’ve qualified for the Champions League along with West Ham?

[Mark_w]

Dock them all 30 points now and bring on the double

[UniFox21]

There amount of hate around this is big. 

[Koke]

Respect to PSG, Bayern and Dortmund for not joining. The German 51%, fan owned culture is paying dividends now.

[AyewJoking]

Lots of sh1t flying around and rightly so.

 

I will be amazed it the whole thing goes ahead but most likely it will be postponed while some kind of deal is worked out.
