The Times: Woodward had talked to Glazer about the damage to the European Super League and offered the idea of resigning

Live bar January 6 news The Times published an article revealing that Woodward handled the inside story of the European Super League incident, Woodward had talked with the Glazer family about the damage of the European Super League plan to the Premier League and the pyramid, and the idea of resigning because of the European Super League plan.

The catalyst for Woodward's departure was the UEFA Premier League event, which he had known two years earlier, but the previous Premier League scheme he saw was only used by clubs to get more Champions League prize money from UEFA. Woodward believes that the European Super League event will not happen, nor will it happen in the form envisioned by his boss, the Glazer family. Nor does he think Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group will do so, woodward believes that if Fenway Group does not do that, the Glazer family will lose the courage to push the European Super League.

On the evening of April 15, Uk local time last year, Woodward talked with UEFA President Cheferin and expressed enthusiasm for UEFA's proposal for Champions League reform, but did not mention the European Super League project. On April 18, the Times revealed that top clubs were conspiring against the European Super League. Cheferin reprimanded Woodward, saying the latter was a snake.

The night before, on April 17, Woodward had spent hours writing a manuscript after realising the Grezer family would push through a plan that would damage the Premier League and the pyramid. Because he knew that the biggest executive, as the biggest mastermind, would have to announce the plan to the world, but he felt that he could not do it.

Woodward imagined going back to Brentwood School in Essex to explain the plan to his classmates, most of whom were West Ham fans, and how angry they would be about it. According to his friends, Woodward drafted it 12 times, but still couldn't get recognition from anyone who still supported the pyramid. Finally, Woodward spoke with Joel Glazer about his concerns about the impact of the pyramid and the importance of the promotion and relegation system, noting that even the NFL (Major League Soccer) has knockouts at the end of the regular season.

Woodward told Glazer he could not speak for the club in public about plans he did not believe in and he feared a civil war would break out in English football. He knows it will have an impact on the morale of Old Trafford and Carrington and knows it will cause anger among the fans. As a result, woodward told Glazer that he would have to resign from his post, according to sources. Glazer said they should talk about it later, and Woodward's decision to resign has never wavered since. The negotiations between Glazer and Woodward have been described as friendly, with Woodward unhappy about being called the foreman of the Circus in the European Premier League, who could and should have confronted the Glazer family sooner.
