KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Overseas breakaway deal

I don't like it, but I guess we have to do something to compete with the big money clubs. I think it'll make watching things harder when I get back to the states.

I'm not sure anything will come of this as I think 14 teams in the EPL have to agree. I think it is good though that we are looking at ways to generate monmey for ourselves so we can compete. The comercial side of LFC has been a joke for a long time and I think its good we are exploring these avenues. Same with naming rights for a new stadium.

I think this should happen and i hope it does, i dont mean to sound like a bad person here but, i don't really give a flying toss about any other club, i just wana see Liverpool compete for the bigtime again, and if it takes us to claim WHAT IS OURS ANYWAY, then so be it.

Its a dog eat dog world out there... as the saying goes.

I've yet to see one dog eat another,fighting,biting,humping,but never seen one dog eat an entire other dog.

so you would like it if PL become like SPL or LA LIGA where the big two only lose to each other and beat the other teams by 3 or 4. if this was to happen it would make the PL more predictable and boring. it wouldnt be as bad as la liga because they have only two teams but we would have liverpool, utd,arsenal, chealsea and the city would be able to compete due to there wealth.
you can say good bye to tottenham and everton challenging for 4 because we would build up a bigger gap

It could end up like the SPL! how boring that would be,how damaging that would be to the lower teams! and wouldnt that just turn things into the breakaway super league that some people wanted a while back?

aint they just talking about the over seas naming rights?

not sure it will effect epl to be honest,think thats a seperate thing thats all agreed on.

I don't like this idea one bit for all the reasons the other posters have put. That said the premier league is not working either with fans being priced away from the game. The game is dying look at match of the day not Liverpool or Utd but some of the clubs like Blackburn, wolves vast gaps in the stadium theres no one goes anymore. All the money from the game is going in players wages if we get more revenue it will just go that way too. We need to do something to cap players wages where else will they go to they can't all go to madrid or Barca. Its not just the top players either squad players are now multi-milionaires with just one contract

i agree another way of pricing out the match going support and being more interested in overseas fans instead of looking after the life blood of the club .
