Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4707527, member: 405"] European fans will not tolerate a Saudi creation of a Super League. Any US-style league that is not 100% based on merit is not going to be supported, and in fact will be actively and angrily protested against. Players are moving for the money right now, and you can't blame them. But the Saudi league will not become a major league for a few reasons (just look at the China Super League ...) - the lifestyle is not for everyone, the heat is going to be unbearable, and they are not going to able to compete in the prestige competitions in Europe, which are universally viewed as best in the world.
