Have these assholes ever explained how the rest of the football world was gonna benefit from this too ?

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.
Levy will cry tonight, I think.
Next up should be the CL changes. I think I've heard that they've now provisioned some clubs can get in just on merit of having a good record and not necessarily needing to qualify? If that's true it deserves a similar reaction to the super league.
What a crazy couple of days this was.
Ding dong the switch is dead.
No contrition, no acknowledgement of the scale of this scandal. A one sentence statement. We must, must, must get them out somehow.
Today has been a great day. Never estimate the power of the fans.
This is next level of 'amateurish' from some of the biggest clubs in the world. Irony of ironies, club that comes out looking good from this is the biggest sugar daddy of them all. Go figure.....
Finally.
They should sell up and get the hell out.
Weren't Chelsea one of the first of the PL to reportedly jump ship, why are they the last to put out a statement?
And Stoke City get all the free advertisment.
They've tweeted as well. Talking about wanting to be part of the process or whatever. Said sorry for the anxiety it caused. Posted earlier in this thread.
Florentino on the Zoom meeting explaining how it can still work...
This is now dead thank goodness. Barcelona are fecked, Real will find 200 million from somewhere.
Total equivalence.
Probably they couldn't get hold of Roman.
Cut from the same cloth.
It's so craply complicated, apart from anything else. It's not a proper league.
I'm not even completely against changing the CL, even if there is not a lot wrong with it... but the proposals looks so ill thought-out to me.
"What are fans but mere external stakeholders?"
They were exploring legals before confirming. City were first to confirm.
They all need to be ousted.
They're backtracking not because they care what fans think, but they know they have to find a sustainable way of continuing to rip us off without governments getting involved.

One of them needs to stay in, so that they can be top AND bottom of their own league. Sounds like something Juventus would do.
Finished first. Wooooo.
Finished bottom, though.
Can't get relegated!
Lets goooooo.

Lets goooooo.Wasn’t the info already publicly viewable?
Can we knight Gary Neville now?
With this supposed cash injection from Uefa, have Madrid and Barca got their bailout of sorts anyway?
Yep just four teams left in, another semi for Ole.

They're trying to figure out what's the way to earn most points - do they apologise, keep it short or what? PR team in heavy discussions probably.
I just saw that this guy had taken his shoes off. Never realized it before.
A bit Scouse, this.
I am not sure why these clubs think that 300 million per club for a pretty random selection of clubs who will continue to play domestically is good for the sustainabililty of football?
We need less money being spent (or the money better divided), not more... CL participation is too decisive, and Super League participation would be even worse!
It's great news it's gone, but the money factor in football is still there...

You take greedy owners and mix in some stupid American businessmen (American posters on here are fine) who show their complete ignorance for the world's love of football and how passionately we feel about it.
Then put Perez in charge.
Basically they're all shite (Levy's a gobshite smartarse), they tried something terrible, their apologies are awful and I'm just glad it's over. I was in a very bad place two days ago ... heartbroken at the thought of stopping supporting United (I will never support a super league).
But this will hopefully turn out to be the start of something good, see some changes we need/want. Ironic?
Drinks are on me!
For services to being 16 years late on this crusade against the Glazers?
Just shows how gullible the supposed best chairman in the league is and how out of touch he is with fans
This is the stuff.
Absolutely pathetic and piss poor statement from Liverpool. Two short paragraphs, not even a smidge of an apology towards Klopp, the players or the fans. Feck off FSG, the sooner the better.
This is the PR working already. Define the good guys, make it sound like owners listen how they feel about it. This will be quiet soon.
