I think I'd be throwing the towel in if we were on the outside of this.

Is PSG issue because of the Qatar World Cup?
Or the established don't like them?

Spot on for me. Trying to be patient and seeing how this actually pans out.
If it happens though I really struggle to see how being outside it would be good.

It’s because right now there inside UEFA
In the new club there not
right, but if its happening then you want to be 'in'. If we weren't to join, it would still go ahead. We are no bearing on it happening, so better to be in
I also think there will still be a compromise with ESL teams also playing in the PL etc, granted though that pL will be devalued.
I see they're talking of 'substanitally' increased solidarity payments to the leagues impacted to also help get it over the line
I like to bathe in custard to life.

Qatar's two biggest image washing vehicles are PSG and BeIN.
BeIN have billion dollar contracts with UEFA to show the Champions League in 14 different territories.
It makes sense for them to wait and see.

Sad reality is Tottenham would be royally fudged if they were on the outside looking in.
But in many ways I'd still prefer us to stay out of it and take our chances in a PL without the other five. Not so much because it would mean we'd have a better chance of winning the title as because we'd still be in a gloriously competitive league with all the intensity, excitement and angst of promotion and relegation etc.

That's a bit of a cop out, to excuse Spurs. I doubt it'd have taken more than a few of the English teams to back out to stop it happening. We're not just passive bystanders.
The PL can't get rid of the founding clubs, as the six of them well know. They'll have to swallow it and basically get fudged over for the next 23 years. It's already extremely unlikely someone outside of 5 of these 6 wins anything domestically, this'll make it more or less impossible. But they can't just tell us to fudge off.
A few scraps from the table, but not enough that you might actually become a challenge to us in anyway, presumably.

I wonder if this league, if it goes ahead, will have rebranding like Super League Rugby did or like US Football, so we might see
Barcelona Dragons
Emirates Marketing Project Chiefs
Liverpool Steelers (see what i did there?)
Chelsea Cheetahs (and there?)
Real Madrid Raiders
and depending if we end up in bed with a US Football team, Tottenham Hotspur Titans or Jaguars
