Surely they'd just get bored of playing the same teams all the time?
Doesnt matter what the players think, its all about the foreign owners making more money. As an aside the PL owners are made up as follows-foreign owned 14, part foreign owned-3, uk owned 3, so the 14 foreign owners can presumably tell the PL how THEY they want to run things.Surely they'd just get bored of playing the same teams all the time?

That is assuming "foreign owners" always vote together. With their backgrounds, American, Russian and Arabic, I would guess that don't always see eye to eye.
Why would owners vote together just because they are foreign? That doesn't make any sense. Spurs are involved in this scheme and they're owned by Daniel Levy (born in Essex) and Joe Lewis (born in London), they aren't going to have second thoughts just because the other English owners don't want it. Owners are going to vote for what benefits them, it doesn't matter what nationality they are.Doesnt matter what the players think, its all about the foreign owners making more money.

That's an ironic banner because football was most certainly not created by the poor.
I have been an Arsenal fan more or less since birth. I had a Southend season ticket for a few years when my son wanted to go and watch - glory days.
We all know and accept money is an important part of the game but this ESL malarky is a step too far. Let them get on with it, kick them out. I don't know who will have the TV rights but I wont be subscribing. I can't support another Premier league club so I will spend my money at Southend and become a Southend supporter.
If other English fans think the same, this could be a boost for lower league English football. Liverpool fans support Tranmere, United fans support Stockport, etc etc..
Hopefully, and its a big hope, some of the top players might not like being banned from playing for their country and boycott the ESL and stick with the English leagues.
