If you look at the teams represented on that board, it's basically the g14 with a couple of small clubs to show respectability...

Just because we beat FFP does not mean that the G14 ceased to exist.
We simply managed to get in before the cartel you mention stopped others. Please don´t expect any difference in top personnel. We knew what we were getting into so I´m afraid it continues to be run as a club for older members only.

At some point we are going to have to ditch the gloves and come out swinging .

Our solicitors have sent a letter, apparently.

In effect, United have two votes. Van Der Saar appears to be there too - bottom left. If he’s not a club rep, why is he there?

He could be, depending on what the photo was of - it might just be ECA wonks.

van der Sar is a vice-chairman of the ECA now apparently.

No conflicts of interest here, of course:

How did John Prescott get a place?

So Rags and Barca represented, we know how that will go. Van der Sar for Ajax, how convenient. Who is it for Celtic, Crerand or Macari?

van der Sar is an ECA Vice-chairman, and not one of the 4 ECA reps to the UEFA strategy committee.

 

[SilverFox2]

As relatively new members to this ancient Golf Club we did well not to be blackballed. Maybe finding out that we are unlikely to be represented on the committee is surely something we should expect.

It won't be Crerand, he's been dead for 10 years it's just nobody has had the heart to tell him yet.

Belgique est Fantastique
Kristof Terreur @HLNinEngland on Twitter is writing in a Belgian newspaper that we upgraded our Etihad-deal to €87m/year for shirt/stadion and trainingcomplex. About 36% off our commercial revenue according to his caculations. Anybody heard about this?

It was rumoured that it would be increased some time ago - see here, for instance: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/footb...ys-new-80million-per-year-sponsorship-5290985

However, I don't remember seeing any confirmation of it. And the accounts for 2015/6 show commercial income up by only 3% on the previous year (though the figure of GNP 177 million is high and there's no detail of what this income is made up from). I'll go on Twitter and ask Simon Mullock, who wrote that story.

I just love how much we work them. They must sit in a darkened room trying to make shit up to stop us.

Love it.
