arista you clearly have no interest in football so I'm wondering why you are prioritising business over the sport? 90% of fans oppose this move, and I dare say the majority of the other 10% are either other-PL-fans trolling or have no idea what the hell the implications of this 'league' would be

The sport has already been incredibly lucrative for soulless corporate ghouls ever since the invention of cable TV packages and Sky starting up in 1993 or whenever... ticket prices have skyrocketed way beyond inflation, merchandise and kits alongside it, and on top of paying £60+ a month to see some games on TV, they now want to go and play in some meaningless pageant?

The very nature of football is to see teams go up and down... if you're finishing at the bottom of the Super League, what's even the point? Who do you dare sell shirts and tickets to? What do the fans have to acheive and dream of? As an Arsenal fan I am pretty resolute in saying we will never win the damn thing, not with Barca/Madrid/the other PL teams present, so what the hell is the point? I should imagine Spurs, AC Milan and Inter fans must feel the same way... not a chance of winning. Ever. Then I imagine Spurs have grown accustomed to that

I'm not even taking the international implications into consideration... it's a huge middle finger to the FA, and other big European national teams, to essentially jeopardise the best players never being able to play at the World Cup... for ****'s sake it doesn't get bigger than the World Cup, and nothing ever will.
