ArseAnal & Spuds had similar issues with Chelsea in the London region, which is where Wenger came into it. To compete, Everton offered very generous "expenses" to parents for travel to matches & for accommodation across the UK & Europe, amounting to £2000+ per month. It worked for a while, but...

It was the Northwest based PL teams ManUre, Red & Blue Dippers, & Blackburn who complained, as City were hoovering up all the best local young talent, enabling us to splatter opposition teams by ridiculous scorelines. They threatened to boycott matches against City in protest, but IIRC little...

Now THIS is a turn up for the books!

Decent win, no injuries... We started at a blistering pace & looked really up for it. Foden was fizzing in the early exchanges & put Sparta to the sword in the 3rd minute with a swivel & shot into the bottom right corner for the opener. We ran Sparta ragged for the next 25 minutes, but...

One of them stuck their beak in regarding Savinho's transfer. I thought UEFA were concerned about two teams in the CL from the same ownership group.

We need to save Masters! We seriously don't need some street smart corporate psychopath replacing him...

Didn't the PL apply some sort of FMV for the transfer of Savinho? It seems that all clubs are treated equally, but some are treated more equally than others.

The end of the need for FFP, PSR or APT... But this is just too easy & straightforward for the cartel clubs.

Abramovic didn't look like this...

There's two issues there. 1. Are the parties related? 2. Is the sponsorship above FMV? This is what I don't get. What's the difference between sponsorship FMV, & a players' transfer value? Surely it's only what someone's willing/able to pay? This leads back to the core issue of FFP, PSR &...

Allegedly! :-)

Hence why I said the PL are fucked if they do, & fucked if they don't. If they apply shareholder loans retrospectively, they have to apply sanctions to those affected clubs retroactively, which will open a new can of worms. If they scrap APT, I'd imagine clubs already affected by the unlawful...

Cutting through the fog, City’s legal team have made their position quite clear. In its present guise, APT is unlawful in the main, therefore unenforceable, which renders it in effect null & void. After the initial "we won" bluster from the PL, Masters withdrew from his golf day with the PL's...

Jack as a Rodri replacement makes complete sense. It pains me at times seeing him out wide just playing the ball backward. Pep's played Bernardo at fuckin LB, so I've no idea his aversion to Jack in the middle. Gundog is not the player he was during his final season. Dunno if he just needs...

The PL are run by those "certain teams", so it'll be interesting to see how they intend to wangle their way out of this fine legal mess they've gotten themselves into without affecting the cartel clubs in the process. What a wicked web they've woven... :-)

The best laid plans & all that! :-)

It's a bit more complex than that. To make APT lawful they'll have to include director loans & apply the amended rules retrospectively. Obviously, this has several serious implications. If they throw the whole lot out, it has serious implications for clubs affected by the unlawful APT rule...

Says a lot about Moureen to the Chavs. :-)

It's kind of happened already with TikTok, whereby Trump wanted it sold to an American Tech company or blocked in the US, based on the claim it was being used by the Chinese Communist Party to spy on American users. Perish the thought that a major global IT platform be anything but US owned...

There can only be one!
