Well, I suppose a few bob on a leaking roof, and a few broken seats. Then there's the new 100000 seater super stadium. But Scruffy seems to hope the fans will fix the seats themselves and everybody else's fans will pay for the stadium. He really doesn't like paying taxes so it wouldn't be a good idea to expect too much. He's only a poor billionaire.

When do you reckon these so called "tweaks" will be done by the PL ready to be voted on by the clubs?

They were done the next week weren’t they? So they said. They have been done haven’t they?? It was going to be an easy fix. Shirley you not telling me it hasn’t been done?

The longer this goes on the deeper the shit the PL must be wading in.

How has the Daily Fail got hold of the 14 page document?
A 14-page document outlining proposed changes and seen by Mail Sport has been sent to clubs ahead of what promises to be a potentially volatile meeting at the swanky Nobu Hotel in Portman Square.
The inclusion of shareholder loans – monies lent to clubs from those with stakes in them – is one of three changes being proposed across the 14 pages.
Instead, that exclusion has now been removed, although equity injection investments remain exempt. The other two focus on access to a databank of commercial deals used by the Premier League to reach a verdict on whether a proposed sponsorship is at fair market value (FMV) and the reversal of a number of changes brought in earlier this year.
The definition of FMV has been changed from whether the amount ‘could’ be sold rather than ‘would’ be sold between willing parties. The words ‘in normal market conditions’ have been removed, along with three lengthy paragraphs outlining its definition by the Premier League. There is an argument that in exceptional circumstances companies linked to countries in the midst of huge drives for exposure, such as Saudi Arabia, would be willing to pay a premium.
One issue the competition may face is a reluctance from those who benefit from shareholder loans to vote for the changes. And clarity may need to be sought from the tribunal panel on whether the amendments satisfy their requirements.
