I agree, but do FIFA, the FA or the PL have the balls and/or the legal right to expel the 6 clubs involved? I hear they’ve already served notice of intent to take legal action against any attempts to prevent them from continuing to play in their national competitions. This will have been a long time in the planning so you can bet their top lawyers have been working on this for ages and will be confident. Wishful thinking but it all the top players took a collective stance against this ... Yes of course the 6 clubs would have looked at every possible sanction and will have had their legal teams all over it. It won’t happen or it will happen with EUFAs blessing. Some kind of agreement will be cobbled together. UTG!

This all makes those people saying that Premier League B Teams would never happen because it's all talk just like the European Super League look less convincing now ...

Someone’s just said on the radio if this happens they all have to leave the prem and 6 teams will get promoted and no teams get relegated.

With all these clubs leaving the ECA, it seems likely that it will happen now. Just hope that means we stay up

Man United leaving the ECA means they are as good as gone..
The FA should null and void all the results over the season of the 6 clubs leaving. Remove any of their remaining fixtures.
Pure greed from all 6, they want to play in the Prem and the super league. The money they would get from both is sickening amount. FA should take action.

What worries me is that this is now used as a massive bargaining tool: “Ok, we’ll forget about the super league if ... ... more PL money ... more power ... more champs league qualification guarantees ... our B teams in the EFL”
The governing bodies will then roll over out of desperation to keep the ‘big 6’ with them.
I really think only a very hard line as others have suggested will do here. An immediate docking of points etc. (maybe through bringing the game into disrepute or some other existing rule).

On a positive note, I think it’s nice to see a European uprising that doesn’t involve Germany for once.

On another positive note, I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many people in a Gaschat thread agree on the same thing. After all the bickering recently, nice to have a topic we can all agree on, f**k the Super League.

Money drives it already. 17/20 PL teams are owned by billionaires. That's not a coincidence. There are Championship teams chucking around obscene amounts of money. I think let the six go and have their fun and then take the opportunity to reset the rest of English football. Introduce severe FFP that works. Encourage fan ownership. Now I know none of this is straightforward. Your Evertons etc. who are spending vast money to try and get into the elite would be screwed. But this is already happening. Teams are disappearing in L1&2. It's all on course to break anyway. So let the six go and let's hope this is an opportunity to fix what is left.

The six want to stay in the PL and English Football, they just want to say a big f**k you to all the other sides with European aspirations by making it an exclusive members club. This is why we need the 50+1 ownership system in England so fans get overall voting rights. No fans in their right minds would ever endorse this sort of thing it’s just so out of touch with how we run and govern sports in Europe. I don’t think kicking them out of English football is necessarily the answer as smaller clubs would end up feeling the financial brunt of such a decision just as much as the bigger clubs. Would be all for fines and points deductions.
