I'd get up and watch us play in the Nations League. I have limited time on this earth so will watch as long as I can. Obviously hope we don't.

Ed2 -if the esl went ahead and the FA couldn't ban the teams and players from the PL, why can't they just continue to have 2 european competitions and they essentially compete for sponsors / TV deals etc.

{Ed002's Note - Because the clubs would be leaving the PL to become unaffiliated sides.}

So to be black and white, these clubs HAVE to leave their FA in order to set-up and play in the super league?
Is this the bit that was misleading to the other clubs?

Cos I thought it was just about leaving UEFA but assumed they could still play in their home leagues, assuming they don't get banned.

{Ed002's Note - Forget the misleading part. If clubs form their own league or competition they give up their affiliation to FIFA and, in Europe, UEFA, so therefore cannot play in any affiliated competitions.}

Right that makes perfect sense to me ed. I mean it'd be illogical for any of these teams to play in ESL and CL. Assume giving up affiliation to FIFA and FIFA doesn't mean giving up affiliation to FA?

{Ed002's Note - The affiliation to FIFA and UEFA is through The FA and Premier League.}
