Champions League restructuring

[Drummond]

Sky not involved. Amazon Prime not involved either. Nothing from BT Sport yet I don't think.

The longer this goes on, the more I think the fit and proper person test will be revamped.

Bayern Munich, who are the current holders of the Uefa Champions League, have released the following statement in the last hour:

FC Bayern Munich takes a closed position on the Super League. President Herbert Hainer says: “Our members and fans reject a Super League. It is our wish as FC Bayern and our goal that the European clubs live this wonderful and emotional Champions League competition and develop it together with UEFA. FC Bayern says no to the Super League. "

The chairman of the board Karl-Heinz Rummenigge confirms: “On behalf of the board I can expressly state that FC Bayern does not take part in the Super League. FC Bayern stands in solidarity with the Bundesliga. It was and is always a great pleasure for us to be able to play as the German representative in the Champions League. We all still fondly remember our Champions League victory in Lisbon in 2020, such a happy moment is never forgotten.For FC Bayern, the Champions League is the best club competition in the world. "

Brilliant.
The 6 (12) are looking more and more like the pariahs they are with every passing minute.

Bayern Munich and FC Porto have shown great integrity.

I would love it if one or two of the 'twelve' had second thoughts and left the others high and dry. Then, as I said earlier, all should face severe punishments.

Seems like there's a bit of a gap between the evil bastards who bought the clubs as sportswashing playthings (PSG, City, Chelsea) and the evil bastards who bought the clubs for pure extraction (United, Arsenal, Milan clubs).

Yep. To be honest, I was a little surprised by Man City, they've never seemed intent on the money, they've enjoyed spending it and have done some really great development work in their city too. And they just seemed to want success. The red part of Manchester, however, seem wholly different.

I can't quite decide whether to laugh or cry at Wolves' Tweet about being Premier League Champions 2018/19.....

Just think. The big 6 ( fingers down throat) will now be begging Kiddy Harriers for pre season friendlies just so they can play in this country.

The first 5 mins of Smiths presser are the best I’ve heard him speak.

It was quite amusing, but a bloke called Stephen Mackie pointed out that if you exclude them from the table you also need to elimiate all of their results.  If you do that the list of winners looks like this:

It's brilliant. I saw an alternative Premier League winners list with the scab six removed and we won it three times...

Roma have denounced it, which in terms of money and supporters is a big deal in Italy.
