What has further disgusted me is both the Liverpool manager and captain have come out publicly against the Super League abomination. Jordan Henderson spoke on behalf of the players as a "collective position" putting pressure on the American owners. What about the United equivalents Ole and Maguire?? Absolutely nothing. Deafening silence.

Ole didnt have a game or press conference to do and you cant give praise to Klopp for that meltdown last night
 
Fans of the English clubs saved the football from the darkest possible future for the sport. Thank God.

Our football is back !
 
Its a massive kick in the balls that Joel Glazer is the Vice President of the Super League. That really is an ugly stain on our club.
 
Woah, I really didn't think we as a club would back down and that this would go ahead.

Well fecking done everyone.

Maguire and Shaw had a confrontation with Woodward, they are the reason he's quitting, they are the reasons United are out, along with the fan backlash.
Give them a fecking break. Jesus wept

There’s no credit due to any of these cnuts but the Arsenal “we’re all part of a family together” after trying to shit on the game of football from a great height is definitely hardcore cringe.

That's Arsenal, small time.

They were only invited because the others needed someone to come 11th (Spurs 12th obviously).
 
Absolute criminals who own these twelve clubs. The most greedy, immoral, degenerate collection of scum on the face of the earth. Also the most spineless and cowardly. There MUST be change in the game.
 
I remember talking about the superleague on a PSG forum more than a year ago and said that english football fans wouldn't let it happen.

I've never been happier to be right, good job lads.

seems to me like the spanish and italian clubs really wanted this to happen

I wonder why

Because they are in much, much worse financial trouble than the EPL clubs, that's why. Recently released figures just for covid losses up to last summer were horrenduous.
 
Arsenal at least an apology in their statement. Nothing from Liverpool or United unsurprisingly.

That statement by Utd is interesting though, couldn't help but re-emphasize the challenges football is facing and they'll continue to work on "sustainable solutions".

The Utd and liverpool statements were short with a bitter undertone. Yanks are pissed.

What makes this even more farcical is that this is the second time this season that the yanks in charge of United and Liverpool have failed to read the room and had to withdraw a half-witted proposal after a brutal backlash.

Football is run so badly, it makes me furious. They have even managed to make UEFA and FIFA look like the good guys, which is not easy to do at all.

While all this was happening, the CL changes which make it very close to a super league anyway, have been approved. 100 more games. The Carabao Cup will end up being entirely for reserves.

Then we can all look forward to the continued shocking rollout of VAR and the world cup in fecking Qatar.
 
It’s incredible that they tried to pull this off behind closed doors, without at least consulting any of the playing staff or managers.
 
The leeches are fuming, you can smell it even through that twitter announcement. Absolutely devastated.

How do you know what they did/said? Apparently plenty going on behind closed doors.

It was only 48 hours and at least Shaw posted before clubs changed their mind.

KdB, Sterling getting "oooh, you're great" tweets and posted after news broke City/Chelsea likely to pull out.

I can just picture how excited they were to surprise the fans with this great news of the ESL.

“You know what Ed, the fans are gonna be so stoked for this”

“I agree Joel, it’s about time we gave back to the football community”

Yeah, the new version of the CL looks like an absolute abomination.
