Disappointed in his stance really.

He was one of the most damning and has watered his opinion.

Ceferin is a disgrace - zero integrity and honour from a supposed black belt in martial arts.

My read of the article was that he was known to want it but couldn't deliver the votes.

This CL news just now only relates to this seasons I think. Which makes some sense if so. Chuck RM out, who plays instead? Liverpool? No. TV agreements would be a mess as well.

What I read said next season's competitions were also out.

A few thoughts:

- They may feel that they will have a stronger legal footing after the new format starts
- They may feel that putting immediate pressure on clubs' pocketbooks is not the way to go under the circumstances
- They may just be rolling over and playing dead

Disgusting that they're not even getting a slap on the wrist for this from Uefa, especially when Perez is still harping on that it's not done

How poor was this from likes of Milan and Inter, once proud and great clubs and now embarrassing themselves by taking scraps from the table just not to be left behind

"We'll take anything we can get, you don't even have to pay us the same, just don't leave us"

Serie A is a farmer's league. The very definition of one.

Maybe now, but i grew up when Serie A was at it pomp (late 80s and 90s), so i got little bit nostalgia toward it

Yeah tremendous wasn't it then?

Shame. It's like how I admired Barcelona for the Unicef/not having a sponsor.

How times bloody change. I wouldn't wipe my arse with one of their shirts now.

As she's non stop texting on her phone and answers with a noncommittal "Yea, sure"

It's even worse, it's "for now"

Leeds carrying on with their popcorning..

Is right.

Should keep stuff like that up.

Biggest losers in this have to be Spurs. The rest are despised, but they're despised and a laughing stock. Even more so than they already were.

Leeds do it right. Proper club.

As much as I hated Wright on the pitch due to his apparent superman change when he played us ( I heard the he calls his wife " Stubbs " in bed , jk ) I really enjoy his rants .
He has attacked the Arsenal hierarchy on numerous occasions .
I agree this statement is on the weak side but stick a microphone in his face and he turns into a loon . Difficult man to dislike .

The rewards of a decade or so of mismanagement.

Barca's been working on becoming them. Astronomical debt, fairly bare larder for a club of that size, aging players, superstar potentially leaving on a free.
