Whether it's ours or Real Madrid's or Man City's, they didn't sign up for this. They shouldn't have to suffer the punishment because of the greed of 3 owners here. Well what else would you propose for a strong stance from UEFA? Banning them from a competition they have no intention of being in next season, as the super league is effectively in their eyes the replacement for the CL, would be stupid beyond belief so I don’t know what else people want them to do?

Superblue 6,372 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 One thing that I don't think has been brought up yet - is there any power that the CPO have to prevent Chelsea playing at Stamford Bridge in this format? I would assume not and that the club have already ensured they're covered with this but would be interesting to know for sure. Would be a wild scenario if the CPO and club's fans pulled away from the club and retained a version of Chelsea to remain in the Premier League that was fan owned.

chippy 342 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Maybe a simple compromise with the bottom four of the Super League being relegated and replaced by the top four of the Europa League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not fair on the fans but its not fair on everybody else at other clubs so whatever the circumstances of the clubs actions are we just have to take it on the chin. I hope for the good of the game that UEFA, FIFA, the FA don’t compromise hugely or at all though. Its only fair on the countless other teams and fans all around the globe. Once they start compromising to these clubs when will they stop? Edited April 19, 2021 by OneMoSalah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there's no guarantee that the Super League will even happen considering the amount of opposition it has garnered ever since the news broke. If anything, I hope the players join forces to fight against this. Owners can't just discard them if the players stand up and fight for it.

No manager or player has said yayyyy this is a fab idea. The general vibe seems to be wtf. Maybe they didn't expect that backlash..or generally don't care but its gone very sour very quickly. Soooo hopefully..this ends up being one of those stupid thought up moments. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they should take a look across the pond and see how Americans have turned away in their droves from watching their major sports on tv over the last year.

Superblue 6,372 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 35 minutes ago, Jason said: Fair play to Bamford. One of the biggest issues in this is that UEFA are being portrayed as the good guys which couldn't be further from the truth. They are culpable in their own right for this debacle through the years of their own greed, corruption and lack of morality. Yesterday when this was coming out, I was at least open to the ideas and the main reason would have been the potential to break the monopoly that UEFA hold over European football. Now I'm leaning the other way. I wouldn't be necessarily against a breakaway league of some form because I think in time it would potentially bring in more clubs and grow independent of UEFA who have done so little to hold faith in. However, the closed shop setup is farcical and like others, I'd be quite frankly pissed off missing out on potentially winning the FA Cup and Champions League this season if we were excluded from them. More so for the players and Tuchel who have earned these chances from hard work and from the looks of things are being thrown under the bus.
