It's always been about trying to curb City's ambition by imposing financial rules upon us. I'm sorry but dragging us down to your level doesn't make the league any better.View attachment 134862
Premier League rivals West Ham and Manchester City have enjoyed a close bond for nearly four decades but now it’s in jeopardy.
Karen Brady: “Manchester City versus the Premier League feels like a boxing match, where at the end of the final round both fighters put their hands up claiming the victory,” Brady said.
“If the judges of this heavyweight bout were the public, then City would be clear winners. They not only have the world’s best team on the pitch but also have the best off it too
“The Prem needs a financial system to ensure that football is, remains and will always be competitive. The undiminished competitiveness of the Premier League is the envy of every other foreign league and club and the reason why our top-flight is the best in the world.
“No one wants it to become a competition between too few clubs, usually by the rich ones who can afford multiple multi-million transfer fees and top wages.
“So next week clubs have to agree to make the necessary changes to the APT rules to address the Tribunal’s concerns.
“This requires 14 votes — at least 14 clubs have to agree — or the whole system is thrown into chaos…
“It needs to be so that the system can continue to be effective.
“We must stop clubs spending whatever they like to get an unbeatable team and create an uncompetitive league.”
It’s fair to say Hammers vice-chair Karren Brady is not the most popular individual among the club’s fans.
One look at social media shows many West Ham fans making it clear to their Man City counterparts that Brady doesn’t speak for them.
Opinion: What the actual fuck!
"The Prem needs a financial system to ensure that football is, remains and will always be competitive."
Has Brady looked at the PL net spend league over the last 10 years? With braindead executives like this in boardrooms up & down the UK, is it any wonder the PL finds itself up to the neck in dudu?

In fact the opposite, it's the most watched League in the World for a reason, and that's not because Palace vs Wolves might be a close game but not great quality.
