“LA JUVENTUS RADIATA DAL CALCIO”. Per aver scritto molto meno in questi 4 mesi seguiti alla decapitazione del CdA juventino ad opera della stessa #Exor, #Elkann che fa fuori il cugino #Agnelli da Juve, Exor e #Stellantis, m’è arrivato addosso di tutto, minacce comprese (1. segue)
In questo Paese se provi a fare giornalismo serio, cioè non al servizio dei potenti (e tutti sappiamo chi sono, dove vivono e quali servitori hanno disseminato nel Palazzo) sei segnato a vita e diventi tu stesso il criminale da zittire, mettere alla gogna, espellere (2. segue)
È una vita impossibile per il diluvio d’infamità che ti tocca subire; per non parlare delle azioni legali che ti colpiscono da ogni dove e alle quali devi rispondere. L’Italia è 58^ nella classifica mondiale della libertà di stampa: molti Paesi africani ci sopravanzano (3. segue)
For EU #Sportslaw geeks, here is my short thread on the Opinion of AG @maciejszpunar and why its most important bit is not in the press release.

👇👇👇
First an element of context, AG Szpunar is not any AG at the Court, but the 'First Advocate General'. His Opinion comes after the much noted and commented Opinion of AG Rantos in the #Superleague case.
The (most) interesting bit of his Opinion in my view relates to the interpretation of Article 165 TFEU and its relationship to the European Sports Model. (See paras 48-55).
Molti confondono le federazioni nazionali (in Italia la @FIGC di Gravina) con le leghe (@SerieA di Casini e De siervo). Le federazioni sono legate alla Uefa e ceferin per interessi propri e giochi di potere. Le leghe sono legate ai club ed ai loro interessi. Oggi anche la ➡️
Premier league si è espressa a favore della superlega (chissà perché le 6 inglesi erano già interessate 16 mesi fa)come lo fa Casini con queste parole. Dal summit di Londra di oggi appare evidente questa spaccatura tra interessi politici delle federazioni, che sono delle 'Uefa'➡️
miniatura (pretendono di legiferare e in parte comandare sulle varie legge sotto di loro che poi portano e creano i soldi veri tramite i club), e le leghe nazionali ed i loro club. In realtà anche le federazioni si rendono conto di tutto, ma il loro vassallaggio li chiude a ➡️
#SuperLeague Si continua a narrare la storia che il tribunale di Madrid non conta, che l'avvocato UE ha giá detto che non si farà nessuna SL e che la SL é morta. Tutte e 3 sono narrazioni manipolate. Ma come sempre entriamo nei dettagli.
[1/13]
[1/13]
Partiamo dal concetto popolare che il tribunale non conta nulla. Non é così. Sicuramente la parola fine (in un verso o nell'altro) la metterà la Corte di Giustizia Europea, ma intanto la UEFA si é fermata contro i club proprio per il lavoro fatto del tribunale di Madrid.
[2/13]
[2/13]
Poi, un'altra cosa da far drizzare i capelli che abbiamo sentito: la sentenza del tribunale di Madrid riguarda solo la Spagna. Ma assolutamente no, infatti le sanzioni sono state ritirate per tutte le squadre che erano state punite.
[3/13]
[3/13]
#SuperLeague #Madrid #CGUE Abbiamo visto molti discutere sul peso del tribunale di Madrid dichiarandolo inutile. Questa é un'affermazione grave. Prima di tutto é un tribunale, e come tale va sempre rispettato, ma soprattutto la storia dice che Madrid pesa! e come se pesa.
[1/10]
[1/10]
Forse in pochi si ricordano che, ai tempi delle prime penalizzazioni, il tribunale aveva intimato alla UEFA di annullare le sanzioni per non rischiare processi. E cos'ha fatto la UEFA? Ha ritirato le sanzioni.

Se veramente contava così poco e solo la CGUE può dire la sua perché la famiglia Ceferin non ha continuato nel suo intento? Forse perchè il tribunale di Madrid conta qualcosa?!
[3/10]
[3/10]
#SuperLeague La SL é morta. Infatti é il suo fantasma a vincere gli appelli. Come detto da tempo, mettete da parte il tifo ed ignorate la propaganda se volete la verità. E così non fate una figuraccia quando parlate con i vostri amci. Ma cosa significa questa sentenza?
[1/9]
[1/9]
Prima di tutto, nelle motivazioni del tribunale, viene dimostrato come la UEFA e la FIFA, attraverso le loro azioni, hanno abusato della loro posizione per impedire la nascita di un competitor e per difendersi hanno utilizzando delle scuse.
[2/9]
[2/9]
La concorrenza é un diritto e per tale motivo, secondo il tribunale, la UEFA e la FIFA non possono impedire la nascita di un nuovo progetto utilizzando la loro posizione mediatica ed economica. L'aspetto della pressione mediatica è importante perchè include i giornalisti!
[3/9]

I read AG Rantos' #SuperLeague Opinion (available at curia.europa.eu/juris/document…) for you and here are my main takeaways 🧵🧵🧵
#Sportslaw #EUlaw #BosmanDay #FIFA #UEFA
#Sportslaw #EUlaw #BosmanDay #FIFA #UEFA
It opens with some drama, "the very existence of the organisational structure of the modern game" and "the the future of European football" are at play. (§2)
The first really interesting part of the Opinion concerns the AG's assessment of the relevance of Article 165 TFEU and the European Sports Model in the case (§§27-42).
#SuperLeague Attenzione! Tutti dicono vittoria UEFA ma si notano fatti che rendono il finale ancora piú complesso secondo noi! Cerchiamo di fare una sintesi attuale dal nostro punto di vista.
[1/5]
[1/5]
Infatti ad ora l'avvocato ha detto che la UEFA non é un monopolio (vittoria UEFA), la SL puó fare quello che vuole (vittora SL) e chi fa la SL deve essere approvato dalla UEFA per partecipare alla CL(non si parla di punizioni peró).
[2/5]
[2/5]
In pratica, se i club decidono di fare la SL e non partecipare piú alla CL crolla tutto. Ora sicuramente i fan della SL si attaccheranno al secondo punto, i fan della UEFA sul primo, ma tutte due le fazioni non avranno ragione sul terzo punto.

UEFA v #SuperLeague has ended. Lots of Qs from judges, hinting where the fault lines of the case are:
- Treaty articles on sport & antitrust
- 'closed competitions'
- Solidarity payments
- notion of 'restricting competition'
- specificities of sport

Jan Passer, reporting judge, asked about money. He wants to know how much cash countries get from UEFA. What %age of their income? He asked #ESL what its plans are.
#ESL has a solidarity fund. But it is voluntary. Still, they reckon it's better than UEFA's. /1

AG Rantos asked why doesn't ESL just set up outside the UEFA ecosystem.
ESL said the clubs would get sanctioned & might face bankruptcy. They need some time to build the new league, it said. For that it needs the money, and the sanctions for leaving are "draconian."/2

It's been pretty brutal for #EuropeanSuperLeague this morning in #EUhearing against @UEFA
EU countries lining up to call it a "cartel" that rubbishes "Europe's model of sport."
Romania, Poland, Malta, Portugal, Austria, Slovenia. None of them had a positive word for #ESL /1

Norway was also there. (It isn't an EU member, but it took up its right to plead before ECJ). It noted that Norwegian teams from the provinces had been promoted and played European sport because of the openness of UEFA structure, on sporting merit. #ESL puts that at risk /2
Shame there was no mention of @ErlingHaaland even though his old club was mentioned as one of the places that benefitted from the UEFA model.

EU-gebouwen hebben enkele dingen gemeen: ze zijn groot, je struikelt er over de vlaggen, je komt er moeilijk in en nog moeilijker uit. Het EU Hof van Justitie te Luxemburg is daarop geen uitzondering. Zo meteen begint hier de zaak over de #SuperLeague.

Veel lidstaten gebruiken hun sprekersrecht vandaag in Luxemburg tijdens de #SuperLeague zaak - die ruwweg draait om de vraag of Uefa en Fifa dit initiatief de nek om mochten draaien - maar Nederland ziet er vanaf zijn zegje te doen.
Overigens ging SL-zaak vanmorgen vooraf door vglbare kwestie over schaatsers. Mocht schaatsbond ISU de Nederlanders Tuitert en Kerstholt dreigen met levenslange schorsing vanwege deelname aan wedstrijdje in Dubai? Op 15/12 volgt conclusie adv-generaal.

ISU imposed bans because the Dubai event featured betting. EC said the eligibility criteria were not transparent. /2

The main question: is @uefa a business abusing its power to run football? By threatening lifetime bans for players/clubs from the Euros or the #ChampionsLeague is it misusing that power? That would breach EU competition law. /2

First predictions in. That was fast 😮
FC Basel gets more credit, that was expected. The model probably underestimates the Sforza factor, but we will see. Maybe there is a Degen factor, too 😂
Will be interesting to see the averages at the end...

Lungo thread.
I superstiti della #Superleague insistono sul concetto di solidarietà. Prendiamo un attimo calcolatrici e bilanci per dimostrare come questa solidarietà, di fatto, non esista. O quantomeno non dia garanzie maggiori rispetto a quella della Uefa.
I superstiti della #Superleague insistono sul concetto di solidarietà. Prendiamo un attimo calcolatrici e bilanci per dimostrare come questa solidarietà, di fatto, non esista. O quantomeno non dia garanzie maggiori rispetto a quella della Uefa.
Nella stagione 19/20 la Uefa ha distribuito 242,8 milioni di contributo solidale ai club non partecipanti alle competizioni europee. Prima della pandemia, il contributo aveva raggiunto quota 275,2 milioni. La #Superleague prometteva 10 miliardi in 23 anni, 435 milioni annui.
A chi andrebbero questi 435 milioni? La #Superleague prevedeva 20 club: 12 noti, 3 presumibili e 5 da invitare. Facciamo che i 5 siano invitati dalle top 5 leagues: chi sta fuori? Shakhtar, Zenit, Ajax e Benfica, a mero titolo di esempio. Anche a loro spetterebbe la solidarietà.

Perché la minaccia di creare questa Super League fosse credibile erano necessarie 5 condizioni:
1 Grandi club disposti a uscire
2 Appoggio dei tifosi
3 Sostenibilità economica
4 Appoggio del sistema calcio
5 Appoggio (o quantomeno non ostilità) della politica

Glede na sorazmerno prijazen odziv na komentarje v zvezi z (brezvezno) nogometno superligo, poskušam svoje razmišljanje nekoliko podrobneje predstaviti. Izhajam pa iz vseživljenjskega spremljanja angleškega nogometa. #SuperLeague
Spominjam se otroštva, ko mi je oče pripovedoval o časih, ko je povprečen prvoligaški nogometaš v Angliji na teden zaslužil približno toliko kot pismonoša.
Kasneje sem se lotil preverjanja te legende. Res je bilo tako v prvih desetletjih poklicnega nogometa, tam nekje do dvajsetih let prejšnjega stoletja (dodatne premije nogometašev, žepnina ob prestopih in bonitete v pubih niso bile vštete v plače nogometašev).
