City launch legal action against the Premier League

Watched Stefan on talkSPORT I wonder if the tyranny of majority vote is down to the fact you are supposed to have 14 to get a vote through, now back in Feb didnt only 12 vote yes, 6 no and 2 abstained but it was still carried! Maybe this is the point, it shouldn’t be carried unless 14 is hit. If 14 can’t be got then the vote is void until it’s reached because you could effectively have say the red tops vote yes 3 votes, City no, the rest abstain it would then be carried!
Very good point it is too.
Definitely, the context of this remark has to be understood before any conclusions can be jumped to……
Unless you’re on X/Twitter or whatever.
 
Reminds me when channel 4 showed that brass eye episode about paedophiles. Politicians were up in arms, even discussing it in parliament, asking for it to be banned. When asked if they'd watched it, they said 'no, but I've heard about it'
 
Martin Samuel has made this point. Newcastle can only make deals with Saudi companies that are at market value, if at al, whereas Manchester United could make a deal with the same company on any terms.l
This. And the Premier League can also negotiate a sponsorship deal with the same company on any terms as well! Hence City calling out the Premier League for potentially having a "conflict of interest".

As someone else pointed out earlier, it the premier win we should just turn round and say 'OK we've just signed an even bigger contract with Amazon, Microsoft and Apple. Now what? '
