Does it have Rhinos?
I know, always ex-United as well. Is it because we don't happily sell our best player to them every season?
Sure, we haven't been great to watch under Jose but under Poch we played better football than United did during that period. In a year or two we could be better to watch than them once more.
Neville is such a fucking hypocrite, he'd be happy for United and Liverpool to contest the PL title each season.
UEFA are hypocrites, but compared to ESL, the lesser of two evils by far.
Especially when you know Jose would step over his own mother to get the publicity that this will get him.
No way he opposes this unless it is because he isn't a part of it. He would be the first one lining up to be a apart of it if they let him.
the reason this is happening is because of foreign fans you tit. So Americans "get sawccer" and they can make a bigger, guaranteed, buck off the middle East and China.
The club has shown zero disregard for the community of Tottenham, which if you ever actually walked through, has nothing but Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham is not a rich area of London and half the neighbourhood was knocked down because of Tottenham Hotspur.
I am certainly not a UK fan and the reason I watch the European Leagues is because of relegation and promotion.
Throw the book at us. Point deductions, fines, relegation, bans.
It's interesting that Sky as a corporation, actually now owned by the American media conglomerate Comcast (as I understand it), doesn't seem to have sent a memo down to their anchors & presenters as to how to cover this.
Sky (Comcast) management have not been shrinking violets in the recent past about laying down the corporate line,
Given Sky/Comcast would be a major player in the TV rights deal for the ESL, if it happened, this may suggest that the Gang of Twelve have not had advanced discussions with the broadcasters yet.

I dunno. I think they're just more incompetent. Been trying to march in this direction forever, couldn't make it happen. Someone else with more money beat them to it and now they're moaning. Fuck em.
But, yeah fuck the ESL too.
Yeah but is he wrong? We are not elite. Levy just wanted us in because that's been his long term goal all along. Take us from a local club to a world brand. Make more money.
It's not two sides of the same coin though.
ESL will bankrupt tonnes of smaller clubs and leagues from other nations.
You guessed correct.
I was going through the pages on this thread so hadn't flicked over to the Jose one.
I was also in meetings at work, until my phone started buzzing.
I waited to say #sackJose until it was confirmed
Unless they have already for a streaming deal in place. JP Morgan would never finance a league that doesn't have broadcasters lined up. That would just make the ESL like the XFL.
My bet is a packaged internet deal, single games, packages, single team, ppv. Amazon night be making moves and their foray in to the EPL was just a test
No, this has apparently been in the works for a solid 18 months and it was just accelerated because of the breakdown of agreement between UEFA and the new CL format.
Ps. Agnelli and glazer are both cunts from what I heard worked the inside as long as possible before bailing.
he's been doing the same to manu as well basically admitting that they haven't been an elite club for 10 years or so. he's been speaking the truth.
Watching him doing his best Che Guevara routine trying to instigate a people's revolution over this is most amusing.
You almost forget he's a multi-millionaire Sky employee who remained pretty quiet about the Glazer's ownership for years.
All the ESL club owners right now watching everyday fans freak out

dumb question - do you think our players were aware of this hence their lack of motivation/attitude issues? i mean, if this was in the works for 12-18 months, then a lot of it makes sense. if we were going to be guaranteed a spot regardless of how shit we were then wtf was the point.
People refer to the goons as Woolwich because they moved from there and it is a despised idea that teams move locations. Loads of American teams move. Trying to understand the basketball leagues is fucking impossible.
I've seen it from a few sources, I genuinely hope you're right and this doesn't get clouded over.
