A great article from Martin Samuel of the daily mail. Well worth a read blues. Know who your enemies are.

It is genuinly impressive that Khaldoon is so on point with the finest nuance. He sees what the man on the street with some nouse does and applies it on a business level with effortless ease. It is easy to get bogged down in bureaucracy and red tape in business. Khaldoon has stayed sharp and resistant to it all, to his absolute credit.Worth remembering. Guys like Soriano and Khaldoon don't put their honor at stake lightly.
They have been totally vindicated. Note Khaldoon's command of the facts here. Journos, take note.
Thank you to those two guys, to the principal owner and all the staff, lawyers and all those who helped.
Well done, you played a blinder.
This guy is exactly who you would dream of running your assets in any avenue, sport or business.

So...
FA investigation DONE
FIFA investigation DONE
UEFA investigation DONE
Premier League investigation ONGOING
UEFA was the biggie but the PL are looking at FFP and Academy Recruitment with the threat of a fine a transfer embargo or even a points deduction. I think it will be harder for them to prove anything after today and deals are usually done in a less public way than UEFA.
I'm throughly sick of it all. Where are all the investigations into Liverpool and United?
It's interesting that the press are saying PL rules do not have any time bar connected to them. That by all accounts is true but can anyone remember what they said when asked about Liverpool allegedly hacking our computers? Wasn't it along the lines of forget it that was ages ago.....
Interested to hear from @projectriver and @Prestwich_Blue on this one.

I do worry about the PL investigation.
Everyone's looking for blood.
Absolute bunch of crooked bastards that keep trying to fk us over.
Our chairman and owner has got to be getting sick of this too. I'm sure this isn't what he expected when he thought he'd invest in a football club.
We just need some stability so people can enjoy the success a bit instead of constantly looking over our shoulder. Jesus, all because someone invested in the club.
Don't refuse on this occasion, MS nails it. Gone break your rule, it's worth it.Many of us refuse to click a link to there, so some highlights would be nice.

Been one of the best days ever as a blue today.
The craic on here had been immense as well.
Off to bed now to dream about the next phase, free of all the UEFA bullshit.

That bit gets me too... Liverpool are already known to have hacked into our scouting network – but even the most cursory of Google serches throws up countless instances of their owners doing the same thing in the US, as well as many doping charges... yet not even a whisper of how dodgy they are.
Then you take United – aren't they registered as a business in the Cayman Islands? They bank there too... isn't that a tax haven? Are they avoiding taxes maybe – or worse? How transparent are their banking/finances when it comes to PL or UEFA scrutiny?
