According to Te AthleticTomorrow the PL will announce any club that has breached FSR for last season rumours of 3 clubs
So every time they decide on a red whim to change the rules, the clubs who have been punished by the rules prior to August 24 could either be punished again or even worse pass the new rules but already be relegated by the old rules!!Latest Martin Samuel article about Forest/Everton and the new rules here on a non-paywall site:

I think you're getting a little mixed up & already know the answer which you've looked up because you mentioned Europe & Africa first? \0/
It was the UAE's intention to attract inward investment opportunities to their global investment portfolio to be managed alongside its sovereign wealth fund, underpinned by its oil wealth, as a way of diversifying away from its oil based economy.
This is partly what attracted Sheikh Mansour to buy a PL Footbal Club.
In the 90s/2000s Abu Dhabi realised the need to diversify, so they chose financial, banking & investment portfolio management as a way to attract inward investors, to whom they'd offer a full suite of financial services which they'd manage, underpinned by UK Law.
They were struggling to attract that inward investment regardless of the vast amounts of monies they paid marketing & advertising firms to promote them as a safe, credible, responsible investment opportiny for individuals, corporate entities & governments who could attain generous returns on their investments. A Switzerland in the Desert if you wish.
Circa 2007, the idea was floated to Abu Dhabi to prove their global finance capabilities by buying a sports franchise & turning it into a massive business success, which would not only prove how business savvy they were, but promote Abu Dhabi as a credible place to entrust with global investment funds in the process.
Roman Abramovich was cited as an example of someone who was relatively unknown until he bought Chelsea & turned them into a global football superpower.
Convinced, financial fixer Amanda Staveley was appointed to find a suitable PL Club, & the search began with Arsenal, moved onto Newcastle, then Everton & ended up at Manchester City who Sheikh Mansour purchased to achieve this aim.
It proved to be a masterstroke, which succeeded beyond all expectations. I recall a report on how pleasantly surprised Abu Dhabi were when they attended a major global finance convention, where most in attendance were fascinated by the Manchester City story, & subsequent events first & investment opportunities second.
Manchester City essentially put Abu Dhabi on the global finance map as somewhere to safely invest your money, which would be expertly managed, giving fantastic ROI's. Being part of an investment consortium who bailed out Barclays after the global crash of 2008, further enhanced our business savvy status.
The pimple you keep picking at is the UAE's inward investment offerings to invest in UAE specific projects? The answer's not specifically or limited to, & after our last exchange I don't wish to get embroiled in more nitpicking of irrelevant minutiae, whilst you completely ignore the bigger picture.
I'm pretty sure you've already swotted up on the following, but here they are again for citation purposes. Knock yourself out. ¯\_(⊙_ʖ⊙)_/¯

projectriver seems to be suggesting that Everton will be one of the three clubs rumoured to face P&S charges tomorrow
They would be right up against it with another points deduction.
How have Chelsea got away with it. There has been talk they would have to sell Conor Gallacher
We delay till August and our alleged rule breaks will technically no longer be rule breaks?So let me get this right the premier league will charge Everton and forest yet come August these regulations will no longer be in place .WTF or have I picked that up wrong..
They’ll still be rule breaks of the rules that were in place when they were broken.We delay till August and our alleged rule breaks will technically no longer be rule breaks?
Allegedly brokenThey’ll still be rule breaks of the rules that were in place when they were broken.
I was assuming the “”we” referred to Forest and Everton, where the breaking of the rules will be cut and dried, their defence being mitigation. City won’t have come anywhere near breaking the rules which are apparently about to be amendedAllegedly broken
When we were first taken over I read an article by a Canadian journalist that talked about the issue of modernisation in the Middle East and the push back from the religious right over there.The Saudis are desperately trying to bring in sweeping reforms, but it's seriously difficult to do when surrounded by religious enemies who want you dead, & the constant wars that keep erupting around them.
The current conflict in Palestine, & the US/UK attacks on Yemen in response to Yemeni piracy & them attacking US/UK warships are a case in point. Things are never straightforward when religion is thrown into the mix. \0/
Not if you include US cops just shooting people they don't like the look of without bothering with the whole trial and sentencing nonsense.That’s even more than the US!
No one wants Gallacher, he’s been up for sale since last summer.
How have Chelsea got away with it. There has been talk they would have to sell Conor Gallacher
He actually looks their best midfielder even the other two cost +100m each.
