Arsenal have never won everything mate , they’ve had purple patches but have never ever dominated English Football , only three clubs have done it - us and the other two red **** outfits in the close vicinity

Yeah I get that, just meant as a whole, the red clubs have largely dominated between them.

I guess that can be domination in terms of trophies, or in terms of the Premier league boardroom.

Can't stop laughing at the sky sports news headline on their app, saying us and the Premier League both claiming a victory.
Bless them, they can't bring themselves to say it.

It's not factually incorrect though, both parties have issued statements claiming victory.

"That’s what John Stuart Mill wrote about in On Liberty. The pursuit of majority interest at the expense of a minority faction. So when the PIF bought Newcastle in October 2021 and almost instantly the Premier League began adjusting its rulebook — an email on the subject to the league from a club official specifically mentioned “the Gulf region” and was dated October 12, five days after the takeover — that’s the tyranny of the majority in action. AKA: a carve-up.
And we later read that the panel believed this official when, as a witness, he or she insisted Gulf-owned clubs were not the target. They believed the assertion that this intervention could just as easily have been discussing an “American consortium who had links to lots of American companies”. Except there are already quite a few American consortiums with links to lots of American companies in the Premier League, and the email didn’t mention them. It referenced the Gulf. “The takeover of Newcastle United heightened . . . concerns again and encouraged the clubs to seek action,” the witness admitted. Even so, the same email would have been sent had the worry related to Americans. It’s just that it wasn’t. It was sent five days after a Saudi takeover."

That's from Samuel's piece in The Times today, has it ever been confirmed which club sent that email to the PL per chance?

Perhaps when JW Henry described Soriano as "a terrrorist" he really meant he had perhaps been a supporter of the IRA. It was nothing to do with his dark skin and the ethnicity of his boss.
