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

[Mr Fraser]

Souness lives in the South Manchester area. He knows all the North West football Club Directors and has strong links with the business community because of his extensive charity work. He knows full well what has happened to City with the smear campaign. A lot of the people involved in the dirty tricks live near him in Cheshire. It's a small clique and they use the same bars and restaurants. That's why he speaks with authority on the subject.

Think sourness lives in Dorset

Yes. I think you may be right but I believe he only moved down there recently after living in Wilmslow area for 30 years plus.

A thought occured to me today that I hadn't even considered before, lets say that the PL bring in the anchoring rule where the maximum a club can spend is say £650 million. How does that affect associated rules and fair market value?

If we as a club get to a point where we bring in say £800 million and agree to the cap at £650 million then surely the additional money we are unable to spend will go to the owners as a return on their investment.

So in effect the PL are trying to push rules that will limit what a business can earn regardless of if they can spend it. I cant quite understand how that could be legal.

Think the cap is 5 times the what the bottom team in premier make on tv money! So around 550m and in that you have to have all club player and Bonus wages in. Our was around 505m so that would be mean if the new PSR rules were in we could only spend 45m!

It means we have to get our wage bill lower and we have to ship out players before buying....


It's why they've changed the PSR rules AGAIN they are chasing us to curb us!

In that case this is the end of the premier league as a major league.

In that case this is the end of the premier league as a major league.

I think that’s the plan, drive the premier league into oblivion & become the super league.
