i think if they win (city), that would lead the big three to reconsider the super league

I canāt find the words to express how much I despise this club. In my opinion, people like that should have no place in sport anymore.

Possibly, but the FA would then be forced to acknowledge and recognise it as how can they run the P/L with only City?
The other alternative would be for City to drop into the Championship, meaning the likes of Leeds, Hull and Norwich getting into Europe which would totally fuck Englands co-efficiency. Meanwhile the new league can be set up with proper ownership controls in place, financial regularitory to ensure cheating is properly punished and you could even see a fan ownership model similar to Germany for all clubs

Itās a clusterfuck, but it was inevitable due to PL greed. The fact that there are only about 6-8 other clubs supporting city is telling. So you probably have City, Chelsea, Newcastle, and, I imagine, some other team with private equity groups as key investors. Spurs and Arsenal are the only two significant teams that do not have any private equity firms as investors, leaving 12 teams in the Premier League having some level of private equity backing.
Dodgy money is rife in elite level sport. We need to be whiter than white and drop this shower asap

I mean as fan groups. Disrupt the matches at home, refuse to attend matches away. Its a shame English fans lack the ability to set tribalism aside for practically any issue, especially this one.

Iām awaiting the compromise of"we will agree to your unfair rules going forward as long as you drop your 115 charges",otherwise we go to court.They donāt need to win in court to be successful in the future as theyāve already set that up.This is to legitimise/sportswash what they have done in the past.They have new ways of making money to compete now,sell everyone to abu dabi/qatar/saudi for huge sums of money to promote those leagues.

Maybe the other 19 clubs could join the football league and call themselves Division 1.

I honestly didnt think I could despise this lot more. I was wrong. Very wrong.
PL created this utter shit show and it will likely break the game in the UK. As far as City go, I think theyāve now managed to alienate the entire football world. Not sure i see them welcome anywhere now, along with their little feeder clubs.
Cunt alarm off the scale this time.
