Chelsea pulling out....

[Expat Smoggie]

Neville was right last night. Once one went, they'd all go. Still get them punished for even daring to try and get something as absurd as this pushed through.

EPL needs to make a stand by deducting 20 points from each-- there's always next season but for now they've breached the trust of the league and of the fans so they need to pay.

Still disappointed our club never came out against it publicly.

Few spots opening up now... come on Gibbo make your move!

Man U are the architects along with Liverpool

I'd bet my mortgage (if I had one) that this is an American led coup - Glazers, Fenway, and Kroenke - with Perez put up as the dumb front man to take the wrap

Slap across the wrists for the 12.

But I fervently hope if they do pull out then they are sued for F***ing billions by JP Morgan.

Whatever happens now the home nation FA's / UEFA / FIFA must punish the owners of the club's.

This can't be a whoops we just accidentally fell into it story.

I'd make it so unpalatable for the owners that they cut tail and run from the game. Let's take money out of football. This was the opening salvo, next time it will be more planned unless we as humans come together and say enough is enough.

absolutely, history is littered with elitist power grabs that failed and then were followed up later. We need to neuter them

It is mal it’s known to have been driven by Man U.

I would like to think that players who have the opportunity to sign for any of these clubs take these last couple of days into consideration and think, I don't like this clubs principals.

Rashford spoke out in fairness to him

It sounds to me that is the reason behind these teams reconsidering, the players and managers don't want it. I've just watched Peps interview and you could see he wasn't happy with it.

They are sports men and they have personal pride and as pep says this isn’t sport.

That's what I cant understand, surely you sound out the manager and maybe the captain before it gets this far... at least for a general consensus or do they just not get it??

Luke Shaw and De Bruyne put out some brilliant posts on social media.

They don’t get it mate

they come from a land where a team can leave California and move to a whole new state and no one says a thing.

raiders to Vegas

Ed Woodward has resigned at United.

Ed Woodward has resigned and the whole thing is cancelled.....

Pretty much the same us you - a victory for the fans, with the added bonus of Perez going on TV last night and looking like a complete k n o b - but then he does that regularly - he's a joke figure

It's widely accepted here that Real are completely bankrupt and are kept afloat by the Madrid government - Perez is a puppet. This, together with the history of Real being Franco's team, and how Catalonia has been treated by the central government over the years, is the root of the Barca hatred of them
