I have to agree with Zlatan. No matter how many fans would want to watch such a league, the risk of financial meltdown is too great. Remember that the TV companies always get more of the money. In an ESL setting, the clubs would demand at least 50-55% of the profits. The TV companies would...

Yeah, and the Premiership is still regulated by the English FA, and it was recognised as the top flight of English football. If the FA had refused to support it, and rather recommended the then First Division teams for UEFA competitions (as it is their right to do) where would the EPL be today...

The G-14 have been talking the same BS for 10 years, and it still aint happened. I don't see how Glazer's appearance is gonna change that. Cos, frankly it's gotten to the point where the G-14 are comfortable with their deal with UEFA. They grumble about money, they get mo money. They grumble...

No player will agree to allow his club fuck up his football carreer while they sort out some ESL pissing contest. They'll walk to clubs which have sense. And in the event that they untimately lose the court battle, what happens next? For sure the local leagues wont be waiting around to see what...

FFS Nicole, every club needs to have some foothold in it's local league to have gotten into the CL in the first place. What you're suggesting is that Glazer would take Man Utd out of the EPL, and Arsenal, Chelsea Liverpool, Bayern Munich, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus...

Dont worry yer pretty head Nicole dearie. We whopped yer butts in the Community Shield without him, and we'll do it again.:D

I agree, Nicole's signature is way over the top. It should be death to Alex Ferguson. Had Ol' Red Nose not decided to bring his horseracing buddies McManus and Magnier into Man U to give him more control over board decisions, then this takeover wouldn't have occured. Had he not then decided to...

I think the FA has vowed to resist such a move tooth and nail. Besides, someone pointed out that you need two teams to play a footie match. If Glazer decides to go it alone, he would still have to work out a sharing formula with the other teams in the league.

Thanks for the support Jaecole, but I think I can handle these two kids by myself. But if you see me getting pummeled, don't hesitate to jump in.:D

My sincerest apologies sahib. Psyche. Actually, I don't really giva schit. You tell your friend Incuborossonero(happy now) that I don't like his attittude.

wow. did he invest that much in the bucaneers?

Isn't La Liga over as a contest?

meaning what exactly?

And he did not have to invest too much money in them. Can someone tell me what 1.5 billion pounds is in dollars?

Glazer isn't coming to hand out money to allow Man Utd re-establish themselves as a football powerhouse. He's here to make money. Loads of it.

That is precisely what makes the Man U fans nervous. They look at Chelsea and see a fairy Godfather handing out glass slippers and pumpkin carriages. Then they look at Glazer and all they can see is Lord Farquad.

Brazilian club to train 9-year-old soccer prodigy Brazilian soccer team Santos has edged out English powerhouse Manchester United for the right to train nine-year-old budding star Jean Carlos Chera. Chera's standout play as a midfielder in his native Brazil caused some of the finest soccer...

Move over Freddy Adu, step aside Kerlon. There's a new sherrif in town. This aint about seal dribbles, or anything like that. No. This kid is a goal machine pure and simple. His name is Jean Carlos Chera, he's 9 years old and goes by the field name of Anderson. He already has clubs like FC Porto...

Yeah football players get high wages. But what about Amrerican sports? Basketball, American football, baseball players,etc regularly pen 20, 30 and 40 million dollar contracts, and no-one raises an eyebrow. It's these truly obscene wages that cause kids to abandon their education to shoot for...

He was most definitely not unhappy to sign for Man Utd. All this talk of being forced only came up after he received death threats from unknown sources. Suddenly, he never wanted to sign for Man U, and was pressured by the clubs, he had no access to his agents, was given no time to think it...
