And he actually said there is no portion of the ruling that the premier league could consider a victory

The club should definitely sue for loss of earnings

A Major sponsorships deal could be worth over £500million if it was a long-term deal like 10 years

I wonder what the fuck was in for West Ham, Brentford, Bournemouth, Fulham & Wolves?

Tyranny of the majority

Oh yesssssss

Imagine if we announce a new, major and high paid sponsor today? lol.

@slbsn has pulled this bit from the verdict.

It really is disgraceful isn't it. Other clubs directly contacting the PL to immediately amend the rules to restrict competition.

I don’t know who Mr Herbert is but I think there’s a very strong inference here that he lied to the tribunal.

Disappointed their clubs will need to pay back their loans?
Hahaha suck it cunts.

All run by Yanks I suspect, they need kicking out of our sport.

My personal favourite coverage of the Tribunal decision is from the BBC.

Nearly every other purportedly reputable outlet has not only provided a full analysis immediately as the story broke (i.e. they had it ready in advance of the decision being released to all the clubs), but they indicate that, on balance, this is a win (if not a major one) for City.

But BBC has given it the minor story treatment on the Sport and Football news pages, and it’s barebones blurb attempts to set the narrative that this was not a defeat of the PL’s APT rules and enforcement, and definitely not a victory for City.

The way that you know this is a dubious narrative is that, had it actually been a win for the PL, the story link and image would have been a massive block at the top of both the Sport and Football pages, and the immediate write up would have been an in-depth analysis of all of the ways City failed in our challenge.

PL-captured “journalism” at it’s worst.
