European Super League

[RientO]

Neville is only pissed off that his plan to pump Salford up into the top echelons with all that dodgy Far East money have now been scuppered.

I dunno. Are Salford (as well as other local clubs) now well positioned to pick up some new fans?

Apparently lots of angry Spurs fans saying they'll switch to us instead. Will believe it when I see it (all the Holsten shirts at games).

From what I have been reading Orient will need a 60,000 seater to accommodate all the Arsenal and Spurs fans who are heading this way. Better get my season ticket quick.

[Still wrong]

How are they going to fit all these proposed matches in? 18 league games, then potentially another 7 games if you are in the play offs. The English clubs will want to opt out of the EFL trophy as an absolute minimum. You can probably add no replays in the FA cup ever again. Add in the international calendar, players will be playing 2 games a week for nearly all of the season. Completely unsustainable on a physical level, let alone an evironmental one with all the travelling.
Don't agree oftet with Gary Neville, but he is right to request points deduction for even suggesting this as if it goes through, this country will be down to 2 professional leagues when all the TV money dries up for an inferior premier league product.

36 league games, teams will play both home and away

It could mean lower league clubs will have to stop paying players ridiculous salaries on gates of 5000.

We can make an offer for the empty Arsenal /Tottenham grounds - in fact pit them against each other for our business. Hoping this goes through - the fuxwits will be out in the cold or perhaps contrary to that playing in the Far East to their fan base.

I reckon Arsenal are more likely to decamp to the USA and take up residence in Kroneke’s $5 billion super stadium. Remodel the roof to have fire breathing wyverns at each end. Far better than a clock. Or a cock in the case of Spurs.

Really ?
Youd want to play in the Library or the souless white hart lane ?

Maybe we should change colours & badges to ?

Brisbane Road beats them all hands down. And with the new roof, I might even stay dry. Hopefully the pigeons have pi$$ed off.

*** BREAKING NEWS ***

Brace yourselves -- it isn't just the "Big Six". Now the rumor is that Leyton Orient (along with Harrogate Town and Bradford City) have been invited to join a new "European Super League Two". It will also include selected high-profile teams from Serie C (Italy), Tercera Division (Spain), 3. Liga (Germany), Championnat National (France), and National Division 1 (Belgium).

While it may upset traditionalists, it can only help LOFC's global profile if there are regular fixtures against the likes of Rupel Boom, Foggia, or Choco.

Orient have always been changing colours and badges. Blue, red and white have all been the main colours down the years. Changed the dragon to two wyverns.

Yes , but the point you seem to be missing is , that they were Orient colours & badges being changed .
Not changing to make.arsenal chelski .& spurs.fans happy .

How else will Orient accommodate the 160,000 fans? I would prefer either to the Olympic Stadium. I went there with a Welsh friend to see Swansea play West Ham and the pitch was so far away.

Brisbane Road beats them all hands down. And with the new roof, I might even stay dry. Hopefully the pigeons have pi$$ed off.

We dont want rejected fans of some has been club who shat on there fans .
We want New fans who want to experience lower league football & be happy about not

If only that username was a reference to the Norton Commando 750

[Betterleytonever]

The 'Fastback' was my favour model of the Norton Commando 750. My mate in Brentwood had one and I always coveted it!!!

[Orient Punxx]

Ok - we stay at Brissie Road.

Best way/most equitable approach thereafter, given that we will sellout season tickets is that each current season ticket holder has the opportunity to adopt a Spurs/Arsenal/Chelsea fan of their choice.

We could open up an adoption site and let them put their sorry stories to us.

[Betterleytonever]

I adopted a Chelsea fan in the early 1980's and used to keep him company in a deserted North Bank when the O's were away. The novelty soon wore off.

[Betterleytonever]

In fact in our 2-2 draw with Chelsea in 1982 there was a staggering 6,009 attendance at the Bridge! And it was a London Derby!

[Bergen]

This comment by Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, says it all:

"The move had been made because young people are no longer interested in football because of a lot of poor quality games. Whenever there is change, there are always people who oppose it. We are doing this to save football at this critical moment".

We should be grateful.

Not so...

Joel Glazer, co-chairman of Manchester United and vice-chairman of the Super League said: "“By bringing together the world’s greatest clubs and players to play each other throughout the season, the Super League will open a new chapter for European football, ensuring world- class competition and facilities, and increased financial support for the wider football pyramid.”

[Clive Evans]

A BBC man on the Today Programme, pointed out that it is 60 years ago, yes sixty years, that Spurs have been Champions of England .......A CHAMPIONS LEAGUE LOL.................you're 'aving a laugh!!!!
