Crystal Palace owner Steve Parish insists European Super League reveal may be a GOOD thing for football as it has united Government, fans, players and pundits... as he opens up on 'extraordinary miscalculation of public mood' by Premier League's Big Six

Steve Parish has insisted the stunning plans for a European Super League are an 'extraordinary miscalculation of public mood,' but the reveal on Sunday could end up having a positive effect on football.

English football's 'Big Six' - Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham - have announced their plans to join the breakaway competition for 15 of the biggest European teams.

The Crystal Palace part-owner spoke out against the project, describing it as 'beyond the pale' for clubs to crown themselves the gilded elite and make it a closed shop.
