Just wow

What of the rumors us and City may pull out? Any update?

[Pizy 18,877]

I think they’re all scared shitless now and regretting it. Don’t think it’ll happen and we’ll see the first of probably several of the clubs putting out apologies today or within this week.

I know it’s almost universally hated but I would actually be kind of disappointed if it collapses. I’ve been enjoying the chaos first of all, and second of all I like the idea of massive heavyweight matches throughout the season more frequently.

Even pulling out would be madness right now.  Would leave us to absolute ridicule. Can’t believe no none calculated that backlash

I would have more respect for our club if we went out of the competition and accept we did a mistake rather than just ignore everything and compete in the super league, while ruining English football. Sometimes you need to accept that you made a mistake and I respect accepting mistakes more than ignoring your made mistake. But we need Manchester City to come with us.

At least one Premier League big six club is having 'EMERGENCY internal discussions' on the best way forward, with some of the executives 'deeply concerned' about alienating their fans via the European Super League.

Thing is, I'm pissed off with the new Champions League reform. I hate it. This "reform" makes us have to play more games, and it's more greed for UEFA and its TV sponsors.

I hate to choose the between the two evils. I really do.

It can be reformed again. They might have agreed to it but it can still be changed. 2024 is still long away ahead

I'd fucking love us to be the first to pull out from this nightmare. Sure we will still be ridiculed but who cares. Pull out and apologize

Been told six English clubs still unified in their desire to join Super League despite all the opposition and criticism. https://bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/56812305?ns_mchannel=social&ns_source=twitter&ns_campaign=bbc_live&ns_linkname=607ea9280b5e0102e3fc5e68%26%27Big%20six%27%20still%20unified%20in%20their%20position%262021-04-20T10%3A25%3A28.166Z&ns_fee=0&pinned_post_locator=urn:asset:5bed33bd-34b4-4eaa-8b00-fbd13b3d031e&pinned_post_asset_id=607ea9280b5e0102e3fc5e68&pinned_post_type=share… via

There are lots of rumours swirling around just now in addition to all the strong statements and stated positions against the planned European Super League.

But I have just spoken to someone who is close to the clubs concerned and they were adamant there is no weakening of resolve within the six English clubs who have signed up to ESL.

In their view, the plans have been thought through and will benefit the game as a whole.

The clubs are waiting for the storm to die down.

Ridiculed for sure, but at the same we would be praised for doing the right thing for football. So bit of both. Certain of it.
