The big six are now being dubbed the ‘greedy six’ for their money-grabbing motives, and it will be interesting to see what action is taken.
There has already been talk of UEFA taking similar action to throw these clubs out of the Champions League and strip them of their titles.
We want to hear your thoughts on the #SuperLeague
First up, be honest – good idea or bad idea?

If they have signed and committed, strip them of points, leave the bottom 3 to stay in the Prem (blades/WB etc), bring in the top 3 from the championship next season and relegate the lot.
