Fair play to Milner, coming straight out and saying he doesn't like it and hopes it doesn't happen.
Academy? But who would join? Not if their parents were true fans....ohThe proposal is for 20 teams with 12 agreed already. Having seen the reaction of all the clubs except the 12 of condemnation of the league, which other clubs would be prepared to join the league either through invite or qualification? I think they would struggle to fill the remaining places.
The biggest factor in this not happening will be the current players. If the top players refuse to play in it or new players refuse to sign for any of these teams, where will they go then?
Even if the whole of the UK boycott, there is a huge market in America, Africa and East Asia for them to tap into. No doubt they’d get at least 20m viewers every game,
I'm not giving him too much credit as he's moaning about the protests. If he's that unhappy he's one of the few people in a position to do something about it.Absolutely, fair fucks to him
For those who didn't see it:

The players should be made aware that sticking with their clubs and joining in this league will result in them being pariahs.Not sure how much the players can do other than speaking out about it. They & the coaching staff etc weren't even consulted on it so whilst protests absolutely should happen I'm not sure shouting abuse at the team bus is the way to go.

Give him a chance! News literally came out yesterday!The players should be made aware that sticking with their clubs and joining in this league will result in them being pariahs.
Wondered that too. Liverpool would crap themselves if that took off there. Their fans do seem the sort to unite behind a cause.Wonder if the genuine fans will set up 'Phoenix' clubs if the big six get kicked out of the league
Patrick Bamford spoke really impressively there.
"it's amazing the amount of uproar when someone's pocket is getting hurt, it's a shame it's not like that with racism"
Kick the big 'six' out reform them back into the bottom of English leagues as Phoenix clubs and let FSG, glazers, levy and Abramovich play glorified friendlies in Asia between themselves every seasonWondered that too. Liverpool would crap themselves if that took off there. Their fans do seem the sort to unite behind a cause.
Young people find football matches too long. May need to make matches shorter
He’s full of shit. Rich get richer, so will the poor. Yeah, that’s how it works. Literally saying anything to try and justify his self-interest and assuming people will lap it up.Perez - Real Madrid president speaking at the moment. Absolutely incredible. Can’t believe some of the things he is coming out with. For anyone who are interested..
Only way to generate money for clubs to pay off debts brought about by pandemic is to play more competitive games
Super League will save clubs financially
Football must evolve. Tv deals going down. Needs to become more global
Big clubs playing each other more often generates more money. Not just the rich who want super league
If big clubs continue to lose money whole football system crashes down
Not a closed league. 5 teams will be able to play with best teams in the world
Doesn’t understand new UCL format. Super League will save football
Players won’t be banned from playing for national teams - impossible
Teams won’t be banned from domestic leagues - impossible
Teams won’t be suspended from this years champions league and Europa League - impossible
If top clubs are richer lower clubs get richer
PSG not invited yet. German clubs not invited yet. If they refuse it will not be cancelled
15 founding clubs matter most
If no Super League football will die by 2024. This is only way to save everyone
Everything will go back to normal
Will hire best referees in the world
Everyone signed contracts last Saturday and these were binding. Teams cannot leave
Trying to start in August
If no agreement with UEFA will not back down
Young people find football matches too long. May need to make matches shorter
Just wow

I don’t believe they won’t get the twenty clubs needed Rangers & Celtic for two both pissed off with Scottish football, PSG, Galatasaray & Fernabache there will be others. A lot will be down to what the current authorities do or try to do, kick them out of their domestic competitions ? Let’s see what balls they have.The proposal is for 20 teams with 12 agreed already. Having seen the reaction of all the clubs except the 12 of condemnation of the league, which other clubs would be prepared to join the league either through invite or qualification?

Has he been talking to my 5 year old son?
Sadly, we have a watered down version of these charlatans. Look at what they did to us. Their big league dreams seem to be looking easier but here again the fans were the one that suffered. Never forget.Let them go, football is all about belonging, those supposed super 6 lost there identity years ago. Coventry for example apart from moving to an out of town stadium are still basically a community club serving the City and Warwickshire, I wouldnt give a toss if we got to the PL league without the rebel clubs, I'd just as much enjoy going to Villa Park, Selhusrt Park, St James Park, Elland Rd, Carrow Rd, the Sheffield Clubs,West Ham etc, look at us in league 2 and 1 selling out Wembley, away games sold out weeks in advance, teams like Coventry are special because of the relationship with our fans who I've known for 30 years, meeting up at Southend, Cheltenham, Rochdale, Sunderland etc, that what's makes me proud to be a City fan, let the others fuck off, football will carry on, the fan bases in this country are massive and the lifeblood of most clubs.
Exactly what I said last week when I looked in my cup of mushroom soup from that cafe next to Dungerness power station.This has legs

They were talking to people in the far East yesterday on the news and they loved the idea, but of course they don't go to matches anyway. That's who it's going to appeal to the most. Those in far flung places who only ever watch games on TV anyway.yeah 20m people who have no connection with the actual football club just glory hole hunters who just be cheering the team who wins the league. how shit.
no connected fans no affiliation no passion it will die before it gets started it will just dwindle away. greedy parasites who have no desire to look after their number 1 customer base. it makes me sad and disgusts me

Think the issue is that it’s looking at the worldwide market. It’s a fuck you to their own countries but how many fans in Korea, India, China etc etc. What they probably haven’t counted on is the massive reaction from their fans which could affect sales, merchandise etc. Still cannot see it happening perosnally12 team league. Same fixtures each week. Minimum away crowds. Probably interest for only 3 or 4 after the first few games of the season. Tv audiences will quickly dwindle.
Well that changes everything, I'm 100% in nowWill hire best referees in the world
