Mocked up gravestones, jibes about 'GCSE level' branding and even backhanded digs from the BEANO - How social media destroyed the doomed breakaway Super League after NINE of 12 teams withdraw

It's fair to say the rapid rise and spectacular fall of the proposed European Super League has been subject to every which way of criticism, humour and sheer disbelief on social media.

The world of sport was rocked by the astonishing proposals of the Premier League 'Big Six,' in which they audaciously outlined how they would be forming a breakaway league along with six fellow 'founding members' in Europe.

After being met with immediate anger and distaste, the Super League plans began to unravel at a rapid pace resulting in humiliating back-downs and red-faced apologies from the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool's controlling owner John W Henry.
