Many people are claiming that if the super league clubs are banned, it'd be illegal and they could overturn it at either or both the EU court and the CAS. I don't understand that, UEFA's case looks bulletproof to me. If you sign up for a new football competition then I have the rights to kick you out of mine, simple. I'm not going to stop you from creating a new competition and I'm not going to stop you from signing players to play in it. I'm just not going to let you play with me anymore.
How is that a breach of anti-competitive business law? The prosecutors would have to prove that UEFA are actively trying to sabotage the super league, whereas all UEFA have to do is say "no we aren't, we're just going to kick them out of our structure if they build their own." Surely this is no different to one company saying that if an employee starts their own business to compete directly with the company that they are affiliated with, then that company has the right to fire them. Otherwise I could go work for Apple and start my own tech company and just steal all the designs from Apple, right?
In any case, if these self-proclaimed experts on European competition law online are predicting things with accuracy, it gives us all the more reason to despise the fans of the remaining three clubs. It's all their fault. Fans of the other clubs sacked up and stood up and had it shut down. MES QUE UN CLUB
over here did fukking nothing. They all think it's a good idea! Meanwhile it was the fans of the "plastic" clubs whom Barcelona revile so much who actually stood up and did something about it and forced their clubs to cancel their participation in the rebel league. Nothing could be more plastic than the three clubs that remain in the rebellion; even their hard core match going fans, their versions of Troopz and DT and shyt, all the psychos for whom the club means more than life and death, did absolutely nothing to stop it or even to voice their opposition in a meaningful way.
Maybe if there were 40 Real Madrid fans outside their stadium like there were 40 Chelsea fans outside their stadium, Real Madrid would have also cancelled. But the BIGGEST CLUBS with the BEST HISTORY AND FANS in the world couldn't even muster up 40 of them to stand up for what's right, which even the "synthetic polystyrene silicone phthalate polyvinyl chloride polyethylene" Chelsea FC could do.
I have always hated the big clubs and their fans. The "plastic" clubs are the only ones with any real soul (excluding the big English clubs whose fans admirably proved to be the exception), because their success is still recent enough for the bulk of their hard core, match going support to remember back when things weren't so good. They don't yet have the entitled and arrogant mentality that the fans of the big continental clubs do. They have the soul that Barcelona never had, and they have the real history that Real Madrid never had, a history of being an ordinary and humble football club not the self-appointed gods gift to the sport.
Never again should real football fans complain about plastic clubs; plastic is authentic. Its proven itself to be authentic by the actions of its fans. Better a plastic club like PSG, City, or Chelsea, than an illegally-poached rhinoceros horn combined with elephant ivory covered in tiger skin and inlaid with conflict diamonds club like Barcelona, Juventus, or Real Madrid
