What raised most eyebrows, though, was the prospect the 'dirty dozen', as they were soon named, would never have to forfeit their places in the league, locking out all but five other clubs across the whole of Europe in the process, once another three founding clubs had been confirmed.
 
The Premier League moved quickly to condemn the plans, followed swiftly by… every other major body in football, including Uefa and the English, Spanish and Italian football federations. Uefa - European football's governing body - announced at 16:30 BST it would use "all measures" possible to stop the "cynical project".
 
Politicians were soon involved, a statement from Prime Minister Boris Johnson supporting the sport's authorities "in taking action", and Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer quickly following suit.
 
Former Manchester United and England defender and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville added later: "It's pure greed. There's 100-odd years of history in this country of fans who have lived and loved these clubs.
 
"Dock them all points tomorrow. Put them at the bottom of the league and take the money off them. Seriously. You have to stamp on this."
 
The statement also said the ESL wished to "commence as soon as practicable", and that "clubs look forward to holding discussions with Uefa and Fifa to work together in partnership".
