The rest of the big 6 would absolutely love City or Chelsea to get ruined. Probably the biggest reason for the likes of Liverpool and United being so supportive of the super league is to avoid getting left behind by clubs with bottomless pockets.
No, they haven’t. Your conspiracy theories aren’t clever or helpful.
City’s is a far more complex case that will take longer to deal with, and any potential sanctions will be handed down by an independent commission, not the PL.
Everton broke the rules, in a much more simple case, and have been punished for it. It has nothing to do with City or Chelsea.
I am sure that our owners, and by extension United and Liverpool’s, would grab the opportunity to start a Super League. So if Chelsea and City are struck with punishment and they decide to break away, there could be a convincing argument for the others to leave too.
However, having said that, Liverpool, United and Arsenal are the biggest draws in the PL. If City and Chelsea leave, it would be a manageable loss. But the other three would definitely mean a bigger drop. So if any of the three feel aggrieved and band together to put the biggest punishment on City and Chelsea, the league will follow.
City are making enough money, they don’t need the Super League. I don’t think that UAE views the club as an investment, more like an opportunity to cleanse their image.
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.
but why would they punish Everton then? The backlash is even bigger now, everyone is after City’s and Chelsea’s heads. If they didn’t do anything to Everton either no one would bat an eye, aside from the occasional “google man city 115” jokes
They’ve used Everton to make an example because they’re scared to do it to City or Chelsea.
Can’t piss off the big 6 or they’ll start their own league.

They are setting the precedent. They wouldn’t dock Everton 10 points for a single transaction if they weren’t planning on slamming City.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
But at the same time they’ve put the point fine limit at 12 points, so it’s barely going to hurt City.
Yes they might not win the league one year, but they’d still have CL
Seriously? That’s fucking scandalous.
“One charge of breaching FFP, -10 points! Break as many as you like for just -2 more!”
wait, where and when?

City and Chelsea can leave, no one would follow.
How naive.
Of you, to not understand that SL almost becoming a thing was partially because of your club and the leagues unwillingness to deal with you.

That’s not remotely true, City and Chelsea literally couldn’t leave the league, it’s legally impossible.
As for pissing off the big six? Half of them would just at the chance to see both teams grab a massive punishment.
