[olaftab]

So fuck em. Authorities need to have the bollocks to chuck them out.

Yup they need to be stamped on.

It’s a daft idea and the sort of thing that would hold interest for a short time and then fizzle out.

That statement is full of 'the top clubs' and such talk. It's just a closed shop.

I doubt it and hope not. They probably haven't given up on persuading Bayern and PSG.

I didn't know that. Another one for the boycott list, ta. I'm boycotting more cars than the twat from Jamiroquai has ever owned. Good times.

I was in a restaurant that was playing nothing but Jamiroqai yesterday. How nobody was killed is a Jamiracle.

Must be popular there. Get a local band to do Jamiroquai covers and call them Jamiriachi, you'll make a fortune.

I would hate us to be part of it. It’s not great now, but ostensibly the competition being a meritocracy is the only thing that makes it interesting.

Borderline evil, to be honest.

The overt pomposity is what they do their best to hide. Yet it drips off the walls. The statement by Perez trying to claim it is in the best interests of the 4 billion football fans worldwide just beggars belief.

Kick them out and do it now. I want to wake up tomorrow to see all these clubs having (R) next to their name in the league table.

[Toronto Villa]

Interesting that Bayern and PSG declined to enter. Although Bayern maybe because of the way their club is structured.

I have to be honest and say that after over 30 ST years I'd want nothing to do with us being involved in any crappy closed shop league and I'd follow a non league side.

Get to fuck then, dickheads.

Yep and when it fails in a few years send them back to non-league and make them work their way back up.

Yeah, count me out in the (unlikely) event that Villa sign up to this. I would also give up English football if the tournament goes ahead and these clubs are able to retain their place in the Premier League. That would mean we had given up any pretence of fairness or meritocracy. May as well watch the World Wrestling Federation instead.
