  • The Italian Football Federation has approved a rule that would ban clubs who sign up to breakaway competitions from competing in Serie A.
    Have Juventus ducked out yet?
  • Hmm. This seems to have all gone a bit quiet. Almost like the 12 clubs are now just hoping everyone will forget it happened.
    I wonder if there will actually be any punishments…?

    Of course there won't be.

    And the terrible amended CL format with get waved through.

    As we speak/type/read, UEFA and the national associations are convening at a secret location in a Caribbean sun spot to discuss the deserved punishment of the Twelve.

    Rumours are that it may take three to four weeks (and maybe longer) of all inclusive piña coladas intense deliberation whilst they study a potential blueprint for sanctions against the heretics ...

    The Football League's Sheffield Wednesday Protocol.

    First, they'll hit the clubs with a less-than-adequate penalty, delayed for a season or two, and probably part of it suspended.

    After that the "appeal process" will kick in and the "punishment" will be reduced to a fine equivalent to the loose change down the back of Man City's Boardroom sofa.

    There will also be some shady negotiations taking place between UEFA and the twelve splitters culminating in a new version of the Champions' (sic) League that probably doesn't look too different from the (Not So) Super League with enough financial kick-backs to UEFA and its executive committee for them to not give a flying firkin about what anyone else thinks.
  • Execs from the six PL clubs involved in this debacle have been forced to resign from their roles in the administration of the Premier League.

    Well, it's a start ...
  • Nowhere near enough punishment. Absolutely maddening.
  • Big deal.
    An action that signals we don’t want your opinions any more, you can’t be trusted to play with a straight bat.
    For the six clubs involved it amounts to a few less boring meetings for some of their people.
    If it is supposed to be a sanction or punishment it leaves Tottenham Hotspur unscathed because none of their people attended these groups anyway.
    The punishment should be a blanket 20 points deduction, with eight points suspended for 15 years, applied if they try it again.
    So 12 points from each club right now.

  • Plus a 20 million pound fine for each club to be distributed to clubs in the National league and leagues below.

    By itself no but it is a start and takes a lot of influence away from those six.

    Now they no longer get to frame proposals the way they want.

    Still needs to be a lot more but not sure what, legally, that can be.
  • ESL clubs not doing so great in the Europa League this evening. Shame
  • Enjoying the two 'super' clubs being beaten by clubs deemed not good enough for the money orgy of the Super league. Barça got beaten at home tonight but Granada to dent their championship ambitions too.  Barça and Madrid quite openly want to push ahead and no sign of any sort of punishment here in Spain.

    That aged well, united won the first set.

    There was a future Addick on the bench that night.  I don't think I have ever seen a team rip into anyone like United did that night Alan Smith had the game of his life. 
  • Man Utd fans have stormed the ground and got onto the Old Trafford pitch during a Glazers Out protest.
  • Why didn't the police treat them like the Sarah Everard vigil?

    I suppose we can be thankful that, what with the Twitter boycott, we'll be saved from reams and reams of Twitter opinion posts  :D
  • Game off..
    Give the points to Liverpool 😛

    Nibble Nibble.

    They were judging by the pictures I've just seen on ssn.

    They wouldn't have made it into the stadium if they'd have thrown in all their riot police like the Met would have. 
  • Bloody CARD ruining SKYs advertising income.

    PS not right attacking or injuring the police.
  • A deleted post for no apparent reason. Fantastic.

    Bravo.
  • How does everyone feel about ex big 6 fans coming to the Valley instead?

    They've welcome although I doubt many "legacy fans" will switch allegiance and become ex-big six fans.
  • Man u fans seemed to be quite content with the previous (and still current) set up where their club manipulated football finances to squeeze the life out of efl clubs for their own benefit. 
    The only reason they are a 'big' club is that they happened to be doing well when TV cameras started showing games on a regular basis in the sixties.
