ESL

Hahaha... listen to the two stooges having their daily 'I hate Europeans' wankfest. Comedy Gold.

It’s interesting that the German clubs stayed well out of this, The 50+1 model seems to work. Boris should implement it in British football.

[ootlg]

Yeah, it's a bit weird to see 'local' clubs manned by foreign players owned by international companies, arabs and other billionaire potentates.

Well, three of the five "European" Super League founders are Yanks.

[ootlg]

Yeah, it's a bit weird to see 'local' clubs manned by foreign players owned by international companies, arabs, other billionaire potentates... and Yanks.

I see Boris is head of the FA now.

[voice]

Footy has been a money laundering enterprise for decades, hardly new or surprising the scum who own the clubs are gonna be venal money grabbing tossers.

Oh, I like Europeans, by and large. And Europe. It's the EU that I despise. I thought I had made that clear, many times over the years.

It's a proven fact that Brexitiers love Europe and Europeans. Love 'em!

[mids]

For example, I love Mrs Sarkozy.

"Little by little and without warning, do-gooders and censorship have taken control. Obsessed by their image of upholders of morality, a whole load of people without culture, without experience and without courage are trying to impose their narrow-minded ideas on us. Their sterile, uniform and puerile ideas are seeking to invade humanity. If we have the misfortune not to think like them, they rush at us with all their dictatorial energy to try to make us be quiet. Humour is quietly disappearing as a result of their moralising speeches, freedom is in its death throes, creation is lifeless and democracy in great danger. In short, it is not good to joke in 2021…"

Carla Bruni's great.

And, obviously, would.

I was stirring. I know you like Europe. As for the EU - I and millions of others think it's a good idea to bring European nations together; a union was a big step in that direction. It's a bit like marriage, which can hold you together during those temporary heat of the moment difficult times which could force an unintentional break-up. Everyone knows it's not perfect, but it has the essence of something good and exceptional about it. I maintain that Brexit was built on lies and deception and that the British people were misled. It's a shame, because the UK's a great nation and should be playing a central role in Europe.

Too much money to be made for this stupid idea to remain dead and buried

[ootlg]

Superfluous surely? There already too many different leagues and championships.

[voice]

Looks like some are still trying to resurrect the ESL. No one outside the billionaire owners want this.

I’m sure this is entirely unrelated to the Manchester City fair play financial lies shenanigans that they’ve just been charged with.

[mids]

Probably be another faileure.

[voice]

Never connected Man City being massive cheats, but yeah, if they get booted out of the EPL they'll be looking for a new one I suppose.

[voice]

Its back from the dead, far too much money at stake for it to stay dead for long I suppose.

European Super League: Revamped proposal launched for European competition

Revamped plans for a controversial European Super League have been announced after a top court ruled that banning clubs from joining a breakaway league was unlawful.

The proposal is for a league system which would include 64 men's clubs and 32 women's clubs.

The plans for a new ESL format would rival current Uefa tournaments.

Still has the same problems, buy your way in rather than getting promoted, and no way to be relegated. Its gonna make Thifa and Ueafa look almost on the level if this thing ever gets off the ground.
