Brighton chief Paul Barber stresses the 'real disappointment' among Premier League clubs at the 'Big Six' for Super League plans and calls for 'appropriate action' to now be taken

Brighton chief executive Paul Barber has called on the Premier League to now take appropriate action against the 'Big Six' clubs who sought to break away to the European Super League.

The doomed project came crashing down on Tuesday night after Chelsea and Manchester City started the exodus, leading the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool into humiliating apologies.

Now, the 14 clubs in the Premier League who would have been badly impacted by the plans are now awaiting footballing bodies to assess the situation and make a call on the steps that should be done next.
