City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

I've just read the BBC report on this and the Club statement. The two are a million miles apart in the interpretation of what happened. I'm off to look at another news outlet, but from what the Club have said the BBC are their usual mealy-mouthed RDAHMeedya selves.

Premier league right now.

BBC = Premier League’s useful idiots.

Another arm of their disgraceful organisation - BBC Sports in mourning.

From an Arsenal perspective this isn't great for us. The main ruling I see from this that impacts us is the fact that club owners can't give the club loans without having fair market value interest charged.

At present the Kroenkes loan the club £250m and as football is a risky business I'd say fair market value interest rates are around 8% so that's an extra £20m that needs to be factored into FFP moving forward.

The raging pessimist in me thinks City winning this case means that no club will ever again have to face a rigged competition like our club.

And in future we will thanked for standing up to the cartel

But however we will lose the “115 witch-hunt “

Hope I am wrong.

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

The PL is full of Herberts.

Some of these media organisations may have been reminded that rights to report PL games are coming up shortly so just read out what we say.
