Have read a few saying that supposedly the clubs are locked into an agreement over the ESL and there would be financial penalties if they were to pull out, surely they wouldn’t be that stupid too agree to something like that...

Well they were stupid enough to think it would all just work out for them.......

Neville and Carragher will dine out on this forever

Let them be smug for a little while .
Phil's big brother played a blinder even though he was under Sky's direction .
There will be plenty of opportunity to remind him what a bell he is in future .

Oh dear, it’s now gone pear shaped so the red rats are about to make themselves the victims in all of this

No, if it were Liverpool Collymore would have phrased it differently, more passionate.

That'll be, as a guess, Arsenal.

Hope not
Usmanov might buy them

UEFA announces new format for club competitions to be introduced as of 2024/25 season

UEFA Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League reforms conclude two years of widespread consultations.

www.uefa.com

"
Qualification for the UEFA Champions League will continue to be open and earned through a team’s performance in domestic competitions.

One of the additional places will go to the club ranked third in the championship of the association in fifth position in the UEFA national association ranking. Another will be awarded to a domestic champion by extending from four to five the number of clubs qualifying via the so-called “Champions Path”.

The final two places will go to the clubs with the highest club coefficient over the last five years that have not qualified for the Champions League group stage but have qualified either for the Champions League qualification phase, the Europa League or the Europa Conference League.

Let's not pretend uefa are the good guys here.

Imagine having to have something called a 'Champions path' to allow a handful of actual champions into the 'champions' league.

To be honest the reason I think this has got so much attention from Sky is simply because the top 6 are their gold mines.

I honestly believe had it been a group of 6 mid tabled clubs it wouldn’t have got half the coverage it has.

Let’s be honest Sky has played a massive part in making some of these clubs who they are they need each other.

Of course this action would have devalued a huge investment they have in the EPL. Its why its not over, these clubs are too powerful. It will come round again if nothing changes.

I bet there will be a pathetic financial fine akin to a year's wages for one of their players. There will be nothing to stop them from trying this again in 2, 3, 5 or 10 years from now.

Don't be commending them FFS. It's like praising a murderer for handing themself in.
