I’ve gotta admit, spurs are as culpable as the other 5, but why are we the ones who are being torn apart more so than any of the others?
Are we?

I have to say I am in favour, and I never thought I'd say this.
Football has been going this way for years. UEFA have completely mismanaged the CL and their constant tinkering with formats. Their answer is always more games against dross.
People will shout and moan, but eventually people will accept it. I am certain the clubs will move forward with this regardless. They will have calculated the reaction and are doing it anyway.
We are very lucky we are in the party to be honest.
The PL is a joke anyway in that we have had clubs bought by countries and gangsters, buy their way to trophies, at the expense of Spurs. It feels like we will never win anything without lots more money pumped into the club to level the playing field.
People say if you play Real Madrid every year it loses it's appeal. Really? The current CL format throws up loads of repeated fixtures every year, and do people seriously think playing Burnley twice a year is more captivating for audiences than it would be playing Madrid or Juventus?
Are we? I don’t think we are. There’s a lot of jokes about both us and arsenal not deserving it which is valid because we are both not very good at the moment and on paper we are the least successful club in the mix in terms of trophies so there’s some of that.I’ve gotta admit, spurs are as culpable as the other 5, but why are we the ones who are being torn apart more so than any of the others?
I don't agree with how this new Super League has been set up at all, its dirty AF, but this is utter BS from Micah Richards - City are where they are thanks to financial doping.
Former Manchester City defender Micah Richards told BBC Radio 5 Live said despite holding a position as an ambassador at the club "the first word that came to me was disgrace".
"From where Manchester City have come from, from Division Two [what is now League One] all the way to the Premier League and they earned that the right way through hard work, great support and not doing things the easy way and went all the way to winning the Premier League"
Personally I can't see PSG and Bayern staying out forever if it goes ahead as planned but good luck to them, I'd like the whole thing called off myself.If Bayern and PSG were in it I'm sure many would assume the same. But they're not and it's still going ahead. Barcelona say they needed this or they'd go bust. Equally bullshit as Spurs (who tbf to them haven't even given this really odd defense that many fans are trying to push).
Self-interest isn't a good justification for being complicit in something morally dubious (especially when admitting it's morally dubious!)

Besides the fact it might just be a really really well-sold pressure move to make UEFA give into some demands, even if it is real, I actually really think fans can stop this if they all come together.I'm still not convinced this will actually happen.
How? That’s just pure jealously if it is.Because we broke the top 4 the right way, no oil or state money just smart ownership and a lot of patience and that showed them what could be done. There wasn't a lot of jealousy in what we achieved but us joining the dark side was a kick in the teeth for such fans and I can't blame them.
Yes because it would be against the same teams week in week our year in year out so it wouldn’t be special like it is/was when we for example played Real Madrid in the champions league that was a rare and special occasion, if you play them every other week for years the novelty wears of quickly.The crazy thing is whenever we get a draw in the CL or even the EL people say “I want to play the big boys other wise there’s no point”
Now people are saying it would get boring.
What did he say?Bamford hitting the nail on the head
Are we?
