West Ham United manager David Moyes says the collapse of the planned European Super League this week was a victory for fans over billionaires.

Six Premier League clubs, including Saturday's opponents Chelsea, signed up for the breakaway project that sparked widespread condemnation before collapsing."I've been really disappointed with the clubs who got involved in it, but the people have stood up," Moyes told reporters at his news conference on Friday.

The Super League, a direct rival to the Champions League, would have given 15 of Europe's biggest clubs permanent residence, casting the likes of West Ham aside. Chelsea moved into fourth spot on Tuesday with a draw against Brighton & Hove Albion, but are only above West Ham on goal difference with six games remaining.West Ham have proved the surprise package this season and are on course for their highest finish since 1986.
