Super League is an abysmal effort aimed at greed and betrayal amongst its member clubs. I hope it fails before it even begins, and the clubs considering it admonished and penalized heavily for even considering it.

The interesting bit is that because the UK is no longer tied to Europe on regulations it's possible they can bring in especially heavy domestic rules on ownership if they so want. This venture may lead to more fan-owned teams in that country, or the preventing of foreign-ownership up to a certain percentage.
