AusLaw lessons to be learnt from the European Super League debacle By Tim Fuller|25 April 2021 It came, it saw and, most certainly, it did not conquer. The reference is arguably the biggest fiasco in football history that was known as the European Super League (ESL), writes Tim Fuller. In one of the most brazen sporting coups ever, the ESL attempted to set up a breakaway competition to the Union of European Football Association (UEFA) Champions League.  Reportedly backed by JP Morgan with £4 billion funding, 12 UK and European clubs set out to change the course of football history forever.  The swift and decisive intervention of UEFA, the Football Association (FA) of England, the British government and even the royal family, along with the ferocious reaction from loyal football fans, thwarted the rebel clubs in their audacious bid.
