European Super League is corrupt and I know people who have actual ties to these clubs (being born not only in cities but in actual neighbourhoods) who are now looking around for other teams to support.

Sums up modern football.

For years I have been saying that football should be:
1 A European cup for the champions of every single top league in Europe
2 Possibly a second cup for their immediate runners up or for cup winners if it's not them

Yes there will be a gap in quality between the teams but who cares? If Leicester can win the EPL then who's to say a rare Danish team wouldn't win the European cup using these metrics? When we won it in 67, Celtic were a bunch of local Glasgow lads. That's the dream.

If Celtic were in ESL I wouldn't like it cos it's playing the same 12 teams every single season. No competition in that. Glorified friendly.

Not many English people can afford to fly to Italy and Portugal and Spain every week. Including middle class people in that. Unless they go into debt.

It's off now.

Greedy bastards anyway.

Caved under pressure.

This is a list of their names:
Athletico 8O
Barcelona :(
Real Madrid :twisted:
Arsenal :(
Chelsea :evil:
Liverpool 8O
Man City :?
Man United :?
Spurs :twisted:
Inter Milan :evil:
AC Milan :?
Juventus :?

Greedy bastard football club owners

Don't care about anyone

Not their fans, not their players, not the rest of their staff, not their domestic rivals, not their international rivals

Folded under pressure from all of us.

What a drama! 8O

Glad it's off! Last I heard it was just Chelsea opting out.

Real Madrid are still in it

Should kick them out of La Liga and punish them

Make them play their reserves every week :lol:

Football without fans is nothing

I actually kind of preferred it before Man City got rich (and still felt like a "local team") even if they rarely ever won anything!

Til this season we've had domestic dominance.

Nothing in Europe due to a mix of failure & how it's set up (should be champions only, automatically champions let in)

There's people on twitter moaning cos we are second place...

They couldn't cope if they supported Thistle :lol:

I know nothing about this but it sounds serious. And stupid.
