IIRC Super League doesnt start till 2024.

They say that but them greedy phucks got a contingency plan. That shyt is pretty much ready to go. Minus Bayern and PSG that got all the other heavy hitters for a travelling roadshow. They can have a 12 team league in the SPL format play each other 4 times across the global.

Good Foreign Owners talking about the Bad Foreign Owners.

With the Dildo Twins and Mike Ashely reppin for England

This league will become boring by season 3. UEFA and FIFA should stand to their threat and these dudes will run back

I got the setup, what im asking is who are in those really low levels. Are those like minor league teams and those players just play there until a higher level team buys them or are those teams like Paddys Pub Soccer Club and its just a bunch of neighborhood guys on a squad. For example would National League North be equivalent to AA baseball in the minor leagues here in the states.

The top 4 leagues are fully professional as well as a good few in the fifth tier.

All clubs have histories of 100+ years and even some in the 4th tier attracting 5,000+ fans a game

You can't really compare the structure will Baseball as the lower a clubs are all farm clubs and have a goal of developing players for the MLB club.

If the 12 Greedy Men fall back they need to face the High Sparrow Shame Walk of Atonement.

I saw on Goonersweb that UEFA are trying to pass a law saying that teams in the Federation should be 51 percent owned by the fans, like in the Bundesliga. And that was a big factor in the 12 clubs moving so fast with this.

I'm all for the 51 percent thing.

Bro, they couldn't even do FFP. Its too late.

"This is a huge disaster for football. I am shocked that it is coming true now. That a small underdog prevails, that was always the basis of football. If there is now a Super League in which Arsenal or Tottenham qualify forever without any sporting achievement, then the foundation of football will be taken away. Everyone must be aware that football will then change forever and will never be the same again. People are still dying all over the world, there is a lack of money at the front and at the back. These twelve clubs set up their own league and get 100 or 150 million shoved up their asses. You have to question the ethics of that. The sad thing is: at the end of the day, it's all about money, money, money. The damage would be so big that many fans will hopefully oppose it. I would take part in such protests."

Gosens of Atalanta

I love that the rise of Atalanta clearly made Angelli so mad
