None of these clubs can leave. The last time they tried, fans rioted and shut down the matches. The prime minister and the opposition were united on wanting to prevent a super league.

That was a fuck around and fund out moment for the red tops. They pulled out in time before the government stepped in. Next time they'll be made examples. They'll be put under a government regulatory body and their power to self regulate will be gone.

This isn't America where there is a constitution. Parliament can force liquidations like they did with Roman. The American owners will behave or they'll be sent packing.

Boris Johnson privately supported the Super League. He only came out and denounced it because the public (fans) came out completely against it. Johnson is a two faced cunt who does what is best for him. His "support" means nothing.

Johnson is gone. Rishi Sunak is in desperate need of a political victory. And his likely successor is a Labour PM. The Super League isn't happening. Every PM will be jostling to be the "Man who saved English football". It's over.
