Lol. What was supposed to be a power move and something to strengthen their position has just significant weakened their positions. Their nuclear option has now proven to be futile
50+1 rule now
“The existing system does not work*”
made me wonder if they would set up their own TV company to snaffle all the income?t does seem strange for all the talk of big money for this Super League that no media partners/deals were seemingly in place.
Good social distancingNever seen fans so happy to not be in Europe!
How can that work though?English football to fall in line with Germany and fans have a 51% stake in each club ???? One can only dream
How can that work though?
It is a good idea money wise but unfiltered capitalism is just greed.Having seen the Spurs statement, it very much reads as “we think it’s a good idea still and don’t know what the fuss is about”.

Man Utd's seems to read they'll keep looking for ways to do something similar.Having seen the Spurs statement, it very much reads as “we think it’s a good idea still and don’t know what the fuss is about”.
It was only introduced in the 90s in Germany wasn't it. How did they bring it in?It's unrealistic to think that clubs will just give up a 51% stake. Not going to happen.
While there's rich American and middle east owners this will never go away
It'll reappear in some other guise as soon as the fuss dies down.
The EPL are as culpable as anyone, selling their sole to the highest bidders
Them pulling out, while the right thing, has almost pissed me off even more.
All that drama, hurt, emotion etc, for what? Things will now go back to normal and they’ll get away with it all. Maybe even be in a better position. There will likely be fan protests etc, but once it opens up again fans will be so desperate to watch live football it won by matter.
Joke of an idea, and I just want to see it reprimanded as such.

They would have been 2nd or 3rd class members of the league anyway. Likes of Utd, Real & Barca were going to get a much bigger slice of the pie.Having seen the Spurs statement, it very much reads as “we think it’s a good idea still and don’t know what the fuss is about”.
Vetos are dangerous - fans generally (not all, obviously!) aren't the experts in running a club, after all and, if you happen to have the wrong fan at that time...What about fan representation on the board which carries a veto on any matter. Can’t force owners to sell but can change the governance structure.
