I have no idea what it’s even supposed to be but there seem to be objections. I don’t understand why though. Not a football fan but surely people who like it would be thrilled at another silly league... or is this objection all political bs from the little Englanders hatred for Europe?

not really a hatred for europe thing, there’s only clubs from three countries in it as of yet. it’s more a feeling of betrayal that a game made and sustained by the working class has just become yet another way to make money for the foreign billionaires that own the clubs. realistically, it’s been coming for a long time but it doesn’t make it morally just

It became that a very long time ago Newcastle currently owned by billionaire Mike Ashley is looking likely to be bought by Saudi Arabia.

He never did nor did he ever care about the workers at his sports direct who made him rich. My brother used to work at one, the stories you hear about them are true. I have no idea how he has been allowed to keep Newcastle for so long. Years ago he was found to have invested in Rangers which would mean he has conflict of interest. Should have been fined so hard that he’d be forced to sell years ago.
