  1. 50+1 is what drew me to the bundesliga more than any other league. I still watch all over the world but more often than not in euro competition I'm rooting for the German squad because they represent more than one rich dude trying to just make bank

  2. Im not saying which I prefer but I will say this is a big reason why Germany is always competitive in International competitions. They force clubs to develop within, have a large amount of domestic players in their league and it pays off on an international level.

  3. English football is a rip off since the Premier League and Sky Sports.I have been to several European Games in Germany and it makes me sick how cheap it is.WEll done to our German friends who know how to look after their fans

  4. We love to mourn, it is very sad when clubs are murdered by gangster chairmen but for some reason we love it! English football is the greatest story ever told, even Scotland love football, we love the arguments and the drama concerned around our clubs, big or small, let's get back to rating pies at half time and calling their beer dishwater coz its 80p dearer than at home, aaahh football .. Love it!!!(only in England)

  5. This should definitely be done. I can't wait to watch the same team win the premier league for 9 straight years! I also hope that Abramovich, Sheikh Mansour and all of the other owners who pumped money into their teams take all their money back on their way out. That'll be good for English football right? The total collapse of half the Premier League (Chelsea, Man City, Everton, Wolves, Sheffield, Villa, Brighton, Southampton, CP, Fulham)? Stupid!

  6. The fans love having the billionaire owners, but they don't like the baggage that comes with it. Just another day for the Maggie generation to have to comprehend.
