Part of me hopes they do just all piss off and do their league.

I think this is close to my view.
Arguably there is already a super league at the top of the PL anyway, with the odd interloper here and there.
But I agree that any break away is final with no access to any domestic competitions, including PL under 23 teams playing in the Pizza cup etc.


Interloper is a great word

Well this escalated quickly.

A22 had their new SuperDooper League proposal ready to go. (Oven ready, as someone may have previously, inaccurately said, about something else):

I hope that we never find ourselves in the 32 team blue league. Better than yellow I guess.

But the weirdest thing is this: games available to watch for free on a new streaming service? Isn't streaming revenue the whole point of this caper...?


Free at first then it’ll quickly turn to pay per view.

Bayern, Man Utd, and Athletico Madrid already issued statements against a super league. Good start.

The German clubs have fan involvement at board level, IIRC, so it was always going to be difficult to get them on side.

This would completely destroy football I hope it never happens.


It wouldn't (not saying I'm for this by the way).

We’ve got enough massive clubs in England to cover for their loss anyway. Many are sleeping giants and would fill that void tomorrow and draw big crowds and TV numbers for a more competitive league. We could also potentially poach Rangers and Celtic which would also bring numbers into our game and actually help them improve their European chances by being in a more competitive league.

It's one thing being relatively comfortable with a handful of EPL clubs reforming as variations on the Harlem Globetrotters but why do we have to drag Rangers and Celtic into this?

I haven't found a single fan of any club say they are in support of this. Which makes you wonder who this new league is for.

Oh yes, those who make money out of it.
