Hero.

 

There’s a livestream of the Chelsea protest and the whole crowd went absolutely mental when that tweet hit. Like they won the champions league...

 

Everyone is running that Chelsea are pulling out.

 

Who would of thought Chelsea would be our first(?) heroes? Hopefully there's a domino effect.

 

Fuck sake, now I like Chelsea.

 

There was an oul fella in tears on the livestream when it started coming out. Shows what it really means to the fans.

 

Leeds, James Milner, and Chelsea. Hell of a two days stint in United disappointing me.

 

Casual reminder though that Chelsea and City are the two English clubs that started this domino effect in English football and should only be given a small modicum of credit. If the backlash was less insane they would have done it in a heartbeat.

 

Milner is a legend. Just the way it has always been I'm afraid.

 

Petr Cech came out and spoke to the crowd and basically said "give us time" so the belief that they are working on pulling out seems correct. He asked the crowd to disperse and they all listened to him and are leaving! Estimated 1000 there tonight, City play tomorrow don't they so perhaps similar scenes there too?

 

Yeah, all 1000 City fans might actually turn up to the stadium for once. Scary thought.

 

It’s all gonna fall apart isn’t it

 

Lol

 

Assuming this all does fall apart shortly, do you think the “founding” clubs will see any kind of consequences? Or will we all just forget in a week that they tried this?

 

I hope this happens at every match these clubs play until the end of the season until all the owners who agreed to this fuck off.

 

There’s no way these clubs are going through with it if the consequence is no EPL.

 

Who had Russian oligarchs blinking first on greedy bastard bingo?

 

We'll all forget until it happens again in 2023 with FSE, The Kroenkes and The Glazers telling us how it's for the best.

 

Just royal mass murderers, trophy hunting walmart owners and deploreable investment groups to go :D

 

I think the next two dominos are probably Barcelona and City. They're the least committed based on what they've said publicly since it started.

 

It’s going to be just United, Juventus, and Real playing each other over and over again.

 

I get being happy that Chelsea is backing out but I think that’s where it stops. I’m seeing like genuine praise and admiration for them on twitter lol they are backing out because they were threatened to lose EPL and their stadium lol not being they are some high moral club
