In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
We have the PL too...I think...
Because it's new and I like the idea.
somehow yes, but somehow no.
but it's important to keep the domestic leagues and cups, not sure what will happen with CL/EL.
Or they want FIFA and UEFA to take some of the blame for being unwilling to move, when they then say they are doing it anyway and leaving their domestic competitions.
This can't be allowed to proceed. There will now be a massive showdown between UEFA and 12/15 breakaway clubs. No way should we allow the Glazers to get us excluded from the Premier League and Champions League.
This your new president
Will be very interesting to see how this unfolds. No domestic football pretty much would kill it for me, sad day for football.
It will probably still be Fletch and Macca on commentary sadly.
I can't.
I just can't.
It's all gone.
We knew it deep down, but this confirms it.
Games gone.

What in the name of God are you trying to say? What a ridiculous statement. You think this is just a name change?
As suspected as well as being a money grab the big clubs will use this Super League as an opportunity to keep City and the other Oil clubs spending in check. Something that Uefa couldn't do, no wonder City and Chelsea were reluctant and PSG said no. If this goes ahead it will also kill any prospect of another City or PSG happening any time soon. SA won't be buying Newcastle if there's little hope of them ever getting into the Super League.
What clubs did Raiola go visit for Haaland?
Next step will be "Bringing fixtures to fans around the globe". Probably a small amount at first then creeping higher and higher. Half the games or so played around the world.
Eventually there will be franchise location changes. Why compete with two other clubs in the London region when Arsenal FC can become New York Gunners or Tottenham the Tokyo Spurs?

If it weren't so bleak I'd be loving the drama.
Arsenal have a massive pull world wide, of course they're in it. Clubs have worked hard to become big clubs, why should Stoke get the same amount of prize money as United?
If we got kicked out of domestic competition it would genuinely be heartbreaking. Surely it can't come to that?
What is happening to football
The overreactions are hilarious, no one has any clue how this will ultimately impact the PL and yet it’s the end of football .
Wtf is this
Well goodbye then united.
Has been a largely happy 45 years, but sincerely, go feck yourself. You money grabbing greedy cnut.

According to the Juve statement, the founding clubs each have to put in 2m euros for an equal share of the holding company. That means you could get four entries for the price of one Bebe
The structure is pyramidal, FA's are affiliated to the UEFA who is itself affiliated to FIFA. The clubs in questions are in breach of FIFA and UEFA schedules by organizing an independent competition. FA's have to sanction those clubs if FIFA or UEFA require it, the only way to avoid it is with CAS but that's after being sanctioned.
Isn’t that guy rotting in prison now?Either that or Allen Stanford
Arsenal sound stunned they're one of 12
Thats of rip off PES. Twats.
Looks like they want this to end amicably & I’m 100% sure this ESL will go ahead, discussions will go on between now and August and a deal will be made. There’s too much money to lose for the Prem to deduct the big six points or take them out of cup competitions. This is going to happen whether the fans like it or not. Let’s be honest, we’re all going to watch anyway.
Going forward, the Founding Clubs look forward to holding discussions with UEFA and FIFA to work together in partnership to deliver the best outcomes for the new League and for football as a whole.

I honestly don't care. What's the big difference?
This escalated quickly...
It's a CL replacement in a different format. Read the statements and the Athletic article
Corresponding women's league to be launched to help advancement and development of women's game
United's official statement revealed something massive about the women's game:
Women's football will undergo massive changes, too, by the looks of things.

Lmfao ffs !
FFS. I'm sat next to diarm's wife and her mother.
Lots of talk on twitter that all those clubs will be suspended from premier League next season. Whether this actually happens is anyone's guess but you gotta think it's possible.
