European Premier League

But that wasn't your point was it

I didn't have a point. I just didn't get the relevance of 'I'll be there' in relation to the prospect of a European super league. Didn't make any sense to me. Still doesn't.

I've read the BBC report about a European super league. It seems to suggest that such a competition would replace the current Champions League rather than the current domestic system. Don't know about you, but I lost interest in the Champions League a long time ago. I only ever watch the closing stages these days, but I didn't even bother with those last season.

I don't know if a European super league would be any more interesting than the current Champions League. Personally, I doubt it. But then I've largely lost interest in the European competitions anyway. They seem to go on for ever.

The straight knockouts recently were far more exciting. I'd prefer they kept that format.

Me too. Got no interest in the group stages at all. And the Europa League? Forget it.

The group stages really take the piss out the the term ‘competitive football’, it’s sometimes as though they’re rigged (as though)

But then the big teams might get knocked out, and we can't have that.
