pete0 Posted June 9, 2021 Report Share Posted June 9, 2021 Even their own fans are happy with a point deduction to punish the owners. But nope. Business not sport. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, I think the PL are relieved they didn’t have a big fight on their hands, and the punishment in someways is praising the so called big 6 for not pursuing their ESL ambitions, very weak in my opinion.

patto Posted July 31, 2021 Report Share Posted July 31, 2021 Should we break financial fair play rules and see what the premier league do I think we should and fight it in court they are still pursuing city from about 3 years ago.

They have no green light from any European court, they have the support of a minor court in Madrid (surprise) so means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

patto Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 This is bad news for us and I’m sure for our owners them teams who would be involved will be planning ahead we should have punished them properly with points deduction and a massive fine.

Zoo 2.0 Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Like last time, the Super League would be an absolute disgrace to football but am I that arsed? Not really. The "Big Six" have been taking the piss and doing what they feel like for years (perhaps decades now). Even though it would ruin football as I know it, them fucking off and us having an actual fair domestic league wouldn't be all too bad.

Get the greedy fuckers out, have the teams that want real and fair competition to stay in. The super league will be a bore fest and a failure in time. No one wants to see that shit. The underdog upsets are what gets people into sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ok getting the bastards out but the sponsorship will follow them out the door so no sky money it could even affect our stadium build that’s why we where the first to call them out.

Cornish Steve Posted February 9, 2023 Report Share Posted February 9, 2023 "All the Premier League owners have made that commitment. They will not be joining a European Super League." That's a very naive statement. The teams who would join are all owned by the ultra-rich, and they have no morals except "make more money". If they smelled new money, they'd back-stab the Premier League in an instant. The ONLY thing that would stop it would be a strong unified response from the fans. I've suggested before that we should ban sponsorship by betting companies. In addition, we have to do something to stop financial strong-arming by foreign owners. City blatantly violated the letter, and even more so the spirit, of FFP. Newcastle will soon be found to be doing the same. We cannot allow them to get away with it. We at Everton might want new owners, but let's avoid becoming a financial play-thing of the very rich. Do we want to be the next City or Newcastle? Would we sell our soul to the devil to buy some sort of fabricated success? I certainly hope not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole point was the this BGL is in addition this time around, and that statement is a contract agreement with the PL. It won't come down to morals, fans will just stop supporting those clubs and it'll die, killing the clubs along the way. Actually, when I think about it, bring it on.

Cornish Steve Posted February 10, 2023 Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 Daniel Levy: "We are competing in a league in which we have seen increased sovereign wealth ownership and consortia finance; and in a league where the spending power is now vested in the hands of a few who dominate and have the ability to distort the market... It is understandable that some fans call for more spending, much of which is unsustainable for many clubs." How much more if the ESL promoters get their way?
