I don't buy this "people don't want to watch *insert unfashionable team* v *unfashionable team* pish.......if that was the case we'd all only watch Real v Barca or Bayern v Dortmund or City v Chelsea......people want to watch COMPETITIVE football.
If the big Clubs go down the route of some sort of Euro Super League......hell mend them.....football is historically build on local rivalries. The games is rapidly approaching a major crossroads.......and they could just end up alienating the fans.
