No need for any financial rules only whatever a club loses over a year has to be paid by the owner/owners. Yes this may give a few clubs a certain advantage for a time but let's get it right have ADG and the Saudi investment group invested in City and Newcastle to lose 100s of millions every season?? Its a long term investment same as the dodgy meat seller at United made and littlewoods with the dippers.They need to recognise it's just business. When United were top dogs every sponsor was falling over themselves to get a bit of the action. Business changes, adapts, develops. Now it's our turn.
They don't want to discriminate (apparently), so make sure all sponsorships are around fair value, related, associated or third party. Do it properly. No need for APTs at all.
That’s my view too, but not the tribunal’s unfortunately.Then APT cannot be fair or administered without bias as it doesn't treat all clubs transactions the same
He left long before, replaced by Garry CookeAlistair McIntosh probably still mad he didn't get to ride the gravy train at City when Abu Dhabi took over...
Long before? He left in mid June 2018 , takeover was September 1 - Google says 81 days.He left long before, replaced by Garry Cooke
International break - probably why this is getting so much airtime on hereMeanwhile, any football going on?
I think the outcome from the Tribunal was much better than I expected due largely to not knowing the PL had not been as careful in its drafting , implementation and following of the rules. In effect the tribunal has now made them unusable and so has forced a rethink. Makes the PL look grossly incompetent at best. That is a win.Stefan and Damocles are wrong.
We proved their rules are unlawful. Which is what we set out to do.
No-one has said it's wrong!Read that yesterday. Was there ever a response?
If FMV is a subsection of APT that's in turn a subsection of PSR in general and the supposed objective of PSR is sustainability then why the fuck isn't an FMV assessment conducted for under market value abuse by APT's which actually jeopardises sustainability such as Newcastle's association with Sports direct? Is it that the long term sustainability of Newcastle under fat mike was never a concern for the premier league as they posed zero threat to the red shite, but within 5 days of a takeover the rule(s)need changing pronto.You can as long as it passes the fair market value test.
