this is so wild...its like kids trying to test their parents :dead:
:usure:? How are they testing if they were always the true parents.
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.

UEFA knows fans are stupid, unorganized and can be easily be controlled :russ:. Who do you think this benefits more? The fans or UEFA? Lol.

Ok, so regarding this "Super League" stuff, what did UEFA mean by, "The players who opts to play in this new Super League will be banned from playing in the World Cup and Euros. They will not be able to represent their national teams at any matches”. Can UEFA do that?

What if the player doesn't play for Europe ( Asia, Africa, the Americas)? I need help understanding this :dwillhuh:

Klopp is waffling and somehow trying to use this as an opportunity to question their own fans little protest with the flags on the Kop, asking for them to support the squad instead. Missing the point entirely. Frankly, he’s bottled it.

Yup, they briefed all the managers of the top 6 to keep it simple and to not say anything.

Klopp sounding like he's trying to get the hell out of there with all his rambling. :lolbron:
