***Official*** English Football Season 2020-21

[GIMH]

Fans are massively against this so surely in itself it makes it a doomed idea

You mean legally dubious? They can't "stop" them but they do have a lot of ammunition if it turns into a war. Banning players from representing their country etc.

Yeah basically

 

[sledger]

Haha the PM getting involved now lmao

I think they want UEFA to accept the guaranteed entry of certain clubs into the Champions League every season irrespective of domestic league position.

I would have thought the super league would be quite bad for players anyway, in the long run

It’s such a disaster. Gonna be so much drama.

 

[Furball]

Do you think the clubs have a point of recourse if the FA decides to chuck them out of their league?

I mean obviously the new competition would be more popular so they wouldn't do that but let's say they did

The league's are effectively private member's clubs so I'd be surprised.

Good to see that they have chosen the big 6 for the new EFL.
If someone could remind me what Spurs have won in the last 25 years, and how many premier leagues have Arsenal won since 2000. Couldn't possibly pick any under achieving sides now .

Surely one of them has to breaks rank at some point and that'll cause the whole enterprise to come crashing down?

Haha it's utterly awful stuff but yet so so good to watch/follow.

One of the 12 or one of the remaining UEFA clubs?

They will have anticipated this. They are banking on outrage and lawyers disputing the potential national league ban, and it might work

The majority of Arsenal's Premier League titles were won after 2000 tbh.

In fairness Arsenal have won more Prems than Liverpool since 2000

Spurs is the real outlier.

Leicester winning the title on 2016 gets better with age tbh when you see this **** unfold.

a normal league would have gone "oh, this is exactly the fairytale story we need"

the big six went "**** we're not having this" and started calling Perez and Agnelli and the Bayern bosses

Plastic soccerball fans from Yankieland who have had a lifelong affection for the Stamford Blues will be loving it.
