Had a browse around a few clubs fans forums. It looks like the fans of some of these big clubs are absolutely against this and disgusted at as the rest of us, mainly Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs fans. Man City fans are 50-50 because they hate UEFA for the FFP thing, looks like the older wiser fans that went to Maine Road would walk away, Man U fans seem 50-50 but I think that their boards have a lot of foreign 'fans'.

On Twitter Newcastle fans are already banging the 'we'll be a part of the new Big Six' drum... :rolleyes:

Not sure how that proves anything. Big clubs have been playing friendlies against big teams in Asia / USA for years. Does that mean they've been a trojan horse since the 90s?

Because this was a non UEFA fifa accredited “competition” based on being invited and show cased these sides to a global audience and... and this is the key it showed that foreign audiences will pay to watch the likes of spurs play inter.

it was a testing ground to this exact scenario oh and it organised and bankrolled by us companies.
 
Unfortunately the Premier League has always been about money. Businesses want guaranteed returns and they want it to be that no matter your performance you will still earn that money. UEFA should have stood up against these idiots earlier and said if you want the money from the champions league earn it or f**k off.
 
Was it supposed to be officially announced by now? Is there some frantic backtracking going on in response to the backlash it is getting?

Definitely seems like they've either collosallly underestimated how negative the reaction would be, or it was all a ruse to try and extract more concessions from UEFA before the Champions League tomorrow.

Either way, they've ****ed up because it's tarnished their reputations massively.
 
So it's official, its going ahead as soon as practically possible

Founding clubs will receive £3.5 billion to commit to it
 
So if there is no promotion or relegation do you think clubs won't sack their managers if they finish bottom of the super league considering they have a guaranteed income of 300 million?
