    Finally, after ManCity & Chelsea both withdrawn, the remaining 4 has finally backed down as well.

    Their deafening silence since the announcement of joining ESL, and pushing managers and players to face condemnation and scrutiny without them knowing anything, are absolutely disgusting as much as their pure greed In promoting this ‘cartel’ at the cost of all football fans and clubs in UK, Europe and beyond.

    We should all remember forever of these 6 clubs’ owners for their unforgivable act of betrayal and assault of our commonly loved game:

    1) Manchester United
    Avram, Joel, Kevin, Bryan, Darcie and Edward Glazer

    2) Arsenal
    Stan Kroenke

    3) Liverpool
    John William Henry II

    4) Tottenham Hotspur
    Joe Lewis

    5) Manchester City
    Sheikh Mansour

    6) Chelsea
    Roman Abramovich
    (He was the first to right the wrong to withdraw after listening to fans - probably the least worst of the 6)

    As a football fan, I cannot wait for UK government to complete the fan-led review and promote laws to mandatorily enforce fan ownership of clubs with a minimum 51%+ control to ensure this kind of ‘cartel’ proposal will never ever be possible again. And those aforementioned owners will have nothing to do with all those clubs achievements, but will be forever tied with shame over their insatiable greed for money at the cost of the whole football community in the midst of a global pandemic.

    Winning is a form of art. Consistently winning is a show-hand of skills and luck.

    I watch football like CL, Premier League or Bundesliga for entertainment, but not with much passion anymore. You can feel it's just about money.

    I support my local club in 9th division here in Germany with membership and enjoy watching these matches, where the players just play for the fun the game of football provides. You know, where the farthest away match is 20km away, some car mechanic is the fastest player on the pitch and the 40 year old defender, who retired 3 seasons ago, is still playing some games, because others are injured... This is the real football and not the money grab in professional today.

    I can just recommend to everyone of you to support your local, next-door, small clubs. These are having really tough times, now with Covid even more than before, while others earn millions and billions with the game we all love. And at the end it doesn't make any difference, if you watch the CL or the amateur match, both is just the game of football. The latter is even better imo, because the players play with passion for their home clubs and they don't care so much about tactics or such. They are just having fun and as a spectator this is so enjoyable.

    Although I do not care much, I wished it would have been established. Thus that, Turkish teams might participate in the AFC Champions League and would be more competitive.
