Yet more rumblings.

Let them go.
Not sure how it would work. I mean Man City are doing great now but I'd hardly regard them as a super club they just lucked out with their owners
Would they get their assets "FROZEN" :hehe::hehe:Quote:

Let the plastics go and form their 'super league'. It would actually make the Premier league a far, far more interesting division
Let them go, it could be a blessing in disguise.
They may have overstepped a line which would disenfranchise all supporters even their own.
Would bring a reality to financials in the regular football clubs.
I for one would not be interested in watching on tv , I also think many others would feel the same.
Could be a meltdown at the top clubs and they may just may have to come back with their tail between their legs.
Just posturing for more money from the pie IMO
I don't think fans would have much say in the matter. British clubs are at the mercy of wealthy owners, most of whom come from foreign shores. ££££'s and kudos will win out.Quote:

This has been talked about for years and will almost certainly happen in time. I guess once the money is all in place and should it fail there is a way back, then the so called super clubs will go. What with this and the ever expanding World Cup I do wonder if people are going to get bored with all this football.
Go.
May as well have an auction like the IPL as well.
Franchise football.
Are Man City and PSG really "super" clubs?
I was thinking about the football landscape in the UK without the top 6 and I think it would be fantastic. A bit less money floating around and the real prospect of not having a clue what will happen from season to season.
On the BBC earlier they said that the big teams might enter an under 23 team into the new PL, they can **** right off.
Yep start at the bottom of the non-league structure. Any other 'way back' would involve kicking out somebody who deserves their place.Quote:

Sooner the better. Good riddance.
Wouldn’t they just get replaced by other teams and we’d be in the same position 10 years down the line?
YesQuote:

Without those sort of attractions, I think attendances around the country would plummet.
let them go and good riddance
Yes money would go with them, but the game would still have some money in it, maybe teams would bring on local lads to play for them, maybe you wouldnt have so many players just moving from club to club for the wage packet
think i,ve mentioned this once or twice in the past :hehe:
about friggin time too there,s no other alternative
football has gone through many changes over the years and this is the next step
it makes sense to do it ASAP

Doesn’t seem to be about history, current financial clout will will be the clincher. Would Chelsea be involved if it was about history?Quote:

How would it work could we get there? If not I would probably give up on football if the club had nothing to achieve
