This was so stupid. We are talking mind-bogglingly dumb.
All of it. The concept, the timing, the execution....I could go on and on.

it's amazing, really. We are talking about extremely rich businessmen looking over some of the biggest football clubs in the world, you'd expect they'd have some kind of plan when they do stuff like this. But they had absolutely nothing, it's incredible. I guess if you want to do a coup like this, you'd have to do it bit by bit and ensure you have actually have people on your side. You'd have to try to have your sponsors on board, then the fans (at least a part of them) and you'd need to work out all the details regarding the format, the setup and so on. And they had nothing. Even their website looked like something from 20 years ago.
