General Football Nonsense

Along_the_Wire

Got to love ESL teams referring to their current fans as ‘Legacy Fans’. Utter cunts.

I hope fans move on regardless - the absolutely cunts that they are. The owners, not the fans.

The only viewpoint you need.

Hardly any current players have come out said anything - fair play to Milner. I’ll bet they’ll all rubbish and say they wouldn’t have played once this all blows over. The spineless, greedy little cunts

Milner is only speaking out because he’ll be retired soon enough anyway.

He spoke because he was doing a post match interview. If any other club had played a match last night you’d have from another captain of another club.
It’s not like he called his own press conference.

Good to see Florentino Perez has football’s interests at heart -

Smallman1 I didn’t realise football needed saving. Or that these 12 clubs fucking everyone over by running away with billions of dollars was the solution. Thank you, Florentino! We love you!

Sounds about right.

hugopal yeah 35 years old… not much to lose for him

Along_the_Wire

SM001 I’ll bet they’d have ducked the question or not gone in front of the camera at all.

SM001

Along_the_Wire I seriously doubt that. But we’ll find out tonight with Chelsea v Brighton and as the week goes on.
I’m not knocking Milner, both he and Bamford spoke very well. I’m just saying these post match interviews are mandatory and its guaranteed they’ll be asked about the Super League.

bosstrabs Milner’s as straight as they come. Liverpool will be a sadder place when he hangs up his boots. Given great service

Along_the_Wire

SM001 anyway, my point was, no one is coming forward and saying anything. The little cunts

SM001

Along_the_Wire True. But I think everyone at these clubs are just as in the dark as everyone else. Make no mistake this was the work of the owners on their own, behind closed doors with zero consultation along the way. The likes of Woodward and Agnelli both spoke to Uefa only a few days ago to approve and give their full backing to the changes to the Champions League all the while knowing full well that they were just days from backing out of the CL and starting the Super League.

bosstrabs

alistair True, but I think the point is ‘would he have said it at 24?’

I’m not sure.

Will the 29 year old stand-in coach of Tottenham who is potentially just embarking on a long career in the dugout come out against it, even if those are his personally held views? I doubt it.

seanc80

bosstrabs Possibly not but he wont be expected to be vocal nor will any decision hinge on his input

Smallman1

I’d come out and say “I can’t fucking wait to play Real Madrid and Juve, I’m done with trips to shitholes like Burnley”

Smallman1 - Speaking the truth since ’79

Hursty

Sounds like it’s happening regardless. I will watch it if it’s on free to air, but unfortunately it won’t be.

Along_the_Wire

Hursty Honestly, I’d love it to happen and fuck these clubs up. It’s just not gonna though.

Hursty

Along_the_Wire I thought they had already signed the deal?

bosstrabs

Hursty I thought they had already signed the deal?

23 year deal apparently.

Along_the_Wire

Hursty I’d imagine there’s a long way to go here.
