As I read the proposal of the Super League,

it appears that they are proposing an additional association with a mid-week game, while still retaining membership in their respective national leagues.

I can see why such an arrangement would be beneficial (financially rewarding) for MSL and Liga MX powers.

I hope not. I was planning on cheering for Dortmund if this went through.

Yup. I’d rather watch Real-Liverpool than Real-Betis. This just makes sense.

While that is the proposal, national leagues won’t last long. Just like non P5

Is it really more than just replacing the Champions League?

Yes. Yes it is. West Ham and Leicester who have had a great season and have a

It's like Texas strongarming their conference to an unequal revenue share

Anyone who supports this doesn't understand the game one bit.

This is my biggest concern against it.

Amen. I will not watch another Liverpool match until this is cancelled.

There have been many leagues and systems created that disadvantage lesser clubs

I'm neither for or against Super League but how did you feel when the Premier League was formed or the Champions

RealMadridCougar

The EPL wasn't constructed as closed league like the ESL is though

Also, comparing a domestic situation with a continental one is impossible to accurately do.

I share some of your concerns, but realistically the money will always win.

Exactly like it was when the Champions League and Europa League current formats were announced initially. Fans might be

Salary cap will never work across 5-7 countries with different laws and league structures. No comparison to American

It will work just fine in the Super League.

We'll see but Italy's tax rule will give them a huge advantage in wages

RealMadridCougar

They'll just write necessary equalizing provisions into the league rules.

Man City hates the FFP rules, they aren't going to sign up to a league
