I can't believe any true fan would want it. Seriously? I want absolutely nothing to do with it. Playing the same teams week in week out and getting mashed each time, what's the point?
It would be the death of football as we know it and I'd be out. My loyalty to the club isn't that strong.
If this Super League goes ahead, I’m out. Literally done with football and this club after 33 years supporting them. Gym and golf only, feck football.

I trust people going to the cup final will do their bit. There needs to be huge discontent shown to the owners and the ESL. Banners everywhere.

Honestly, WTF is up with supporters like you. Why would you not get behind the club in a cup final? I despair
You have what you want, the manager sacked, and Spurs about to get lots of money for investment for a new project. I seriously don`t get why you would want a toxic atmosphere at a cup final.

Imagine after Friday nights draw with Everton if someone had told that by Monday morning Levy will have announced that we have guaranteed CL football every season, a £350m windfall and that her sacked Jose. It’s crazy what has happened in the last 24 hours and, on the surface of it, very good for the club.
And yet it all sits very uneasy, because this is about more than just THFC, it’s about football as a whole in this country.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unpleasant feelings over this, no doubt. However, you can't take it away from Levy the amount of hard work he's put in for Spurs to be even mentioned along side those clubs. Job done as far he's concerned.
I'll continue to support the club, owners come and go. History, heritage. Far more important.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Same here. Frankly I dodn`t give two hoots about other clubs. It`s all about Spurs with me. If they have been given a chance to join an elite club, they would be absolutely mad to turn it down. Levy must think he has won the lottery. At a stroke, he will get a chance to get finances back on an even keel and pay off a large chunk of the stadium.

Don, it would be a much more level playing field than now. If it is being driven by American forces, then I would expect there to be lots of rules, meaning no single club can buy all the best players, and everything will be shared around on an equal footing. Then it would be up to Spurs players to show what they are made of.
I have to say I am very excited that at last Spurs are going to be getting pretty well unlimited funds to compete with the best.
All good in my book.

Not at all fella. I am a realist. Football long ago died as being competitive, all about money now. The club would be silly to get left behind, because of some gooey eyed principles of not wanting to be seen jumping on the bandwagon. It is the only way forward in my book.
Spurs have been given an unexpected lifeline, and I shall embrace it 100 per cent. I won`t have any qualms about where the money comes from. City, Chelsea and all the other financially doped clubs don`t. So why would you not want Spurs to get in on the act.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
How very predictable all of sudden Sanluka has no problem with rich clubs. What happened to you being so sure Jose was gonna be here managing us next season?
What I love about the Premier League is the variety of teams you play and, in normal times, the amount of different historic grounds you get to visit. We could be in a situation where we'd no longer get to play Everton, Newcastle, Southampton, Leeds, Norwich, some great regional clubs with fantastic support and great histories.
We'd also be out of the FA Cup - no more brilliant David v Goliath games like the one earlier in the season against Marine, or nearly losing to Wycombe.
And for what? Some soulless competition where games are played on a loop and there's no relegation or promotion or competition. They would be glorified pre-season friendlies.
There's a reason why I don't watch American sports and why those sports are mostly for people who don't really like sport.
I want rivalry, tradition, history. I would like to see the Premier League become fairer and more democratic, something that is far more achievable if the top clubs start to distribute wealth and resources more fairly.
Even then, this year and last, we've seen how the traditional Big 6 - which has only been a thing in the last few years with City and Spurs joining in - can be disrupted.
The idea of a European Super League leaves me utterly hollow and flat inside. No right-thinking football would want it. The elite clubs can shove it up their a&se. They've already taken far too much.
They say football is a business now, but it's also true that no owners make any money from football clubs. Most of them are loss-making. So why not try and run things more sustainably, and get back to the sort of competition seen in the 70s and 80s when it was much easier for teams from all parts of the division to compete.
There are things about modern football that are much better - far less hooliganism, a safer environment, fitter, better players, some incredible quality - but the corporate greed has always been the thing that has threatened to swallow the whole thing up.
The idea of a league sponsored by JP Morgan is capitalism at its most rampant, blatant and awful.

I don't disagree with you but you've been bemoaning financially doped clubs for the last few weeks. Why's it acceptable now Spurs could be the beneficiary of more money?
I think the whole reason Levy has agreed to this is so that we're not left behind, I get that bit, but at what cost to football is this going to do? It doesn't seem worth it to me and I'm amazed you're fine with it. You, of all people, should be disgusted at this. But I guess you're supporting it because you like to go against the grain and be controversial. It's tiring to be honest, all of this is tiring.
Anyway, now that you've given it your full backing I'm hoping that means it will fail spectacularly, just like everything other prediction you make

Of course I have been moaning about financially doped clubs, but if Spurs join them, then their advantage vanishes. It is called levelling up.
Frankly I am only interested in Spurs, and at the moment they are getting left behind by the money men. Big, big chance now to redress the balance, and fortunately it seems that Daniel Levy is grasping it with both hands.
In case you have not noticed Spurs have a massive debt on the stadium to pay off. This is an absolute lifeline to get the stadium paid off in double quick time by joining this elite group of teams.
Stand still fella, and you get left behind.

It would be the death of football as we know it and I'd be out. My loyalty to the club isn't that strong.

This, Spurs would literally make up the numbers and that’s it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don, it would be a much more level playing field than now. If it is being driven by American forces, then I would expect there to be lots of rules, meaning no single club can buy all the best players, and everything will be shared around on an equal footing. Then it would be up to Spurs players to show what they are made of.
I have to say I am very excited that at last Spurs are going to be getting pretty well unlimited funds to compete with the best.
All good in my book.

Not at all fella. I am a realist. Football long ago died as being competitive, all about money now. The club would be silly to get left behind, because of some gooey eyed principles of not wanting to be seen jumping on the bandwagon. It is the only way forward in my book.
Spurs have been given an unexpected lifeline, and I shall embrace it 100 per cent. I won`t have any qualms about where the money comes from. City, Chelsea and all the other financially doped clubs don`t. So why would you not want Spurs to get in on the act.

How very predictable all of sudden Sanluka has no problem with rich clubs. What happened to you being so sure Jose was gonna be here managing us next season?

What I love about the Premier League is the variety of teams you play and, in normal times, the amount of different historic grounds you get to visit. We could be in a situation where we'd no longer get to play Everton, Newcastle, Southampton, Leeds, Norwich, some great regional clubs with fantastic support and great histories.
We'd also be out of the FA Cup - no more brilliant David v Goliath games like the one earlier in the season against Marine, or nearly losing to Wycombe.
And for what? Some soulless competition where games are played on a loop and there's no relegation or promotion or competition. They would be glorified pre-season friendlies.
There's a reason why I don't watch American sports and why those sports are mostly for people who don't really like sport.
I want rivalry, tradition, history. I would like to see the Premier League become fairer and more democratic, something that is far more achievable if the top clubs start to distribute wealth and resources more fairly.
Even then, this year and last, we've seen how the traditional Big 6 - which has only been a thing in the last few years with City and Spurs joining in - can be disrupted.
The idea of a European Super League leaves me utterly hollow and flat inside. No right-thinking football would want it. The elite clubs can shove it up their a&se. They've already taken far too much.
They say football is a business now, but it's also true that no owners make any money from football clubs. Most of them are loss-making. So why not try and run things more sustainably, and get back to the sort of competition seen in the 70s and 80s when it was much easier for teams from all parts of the division to compete.
There are things about modern football that are much better - far less hooliganism, a safer environment, fitter, better players, some incredible quality - but the corporate greed has always been the thing that has threatened to swallow the whole thing up.
The idea of a league sponsored by JP Morgan is capitalism at its most rampant, blatant and awful.

I don't disagree with you but you've been bemoaning financially doped clubs for the last few weeks. Why's it acceptable now Spurs could be the beneficiary of more money?
I think the whole reason Levy has agreed to this is so that we're not left behind, I get that bit, but at what cost to football is this going to do? It doesn't seem worth it to me and I'm amazed you're fine with it. You, of all people, should be disgusted at this. But I guess you're supporting it because you like to go against the grain and be controversial. It's tiring to be honest, all of this is tiring.
Anyway, now that you've given it your full backing I'm hoping that means it will fail spectacularly, just like everything other prediction you make

Of course I have been moaning about financially doped clubs, but if Spurs join them, then their advantage vanishes. It is called levelling up.
Frankly I am only interested in Spurs, and at the moment they are getting left behind by the money men. Big, big chance now to redress the balance, and fortunately it seems that Daniel Levy is grasping it with both hands.
In case you have not noticed Spurs have a massive debt on the stadium to pay off. This is an absolute lifeline to get the stadium paid off in double quick time by joining this elite group of teams.
Stand still fella, and you get left behind.
