Unfortunately the definition the bill is putting in place is any member of a ruling government is classed as State Owned. Sheikh Monsieur falls under this category. Make no mistake this is designed to ruin the club

I get the sentiment, but the bill has no such definition. It is a proposed amendment which hasn't yet progressed.
 
"City have only won at Anfield when there was no crowd."

"Liverpool will win the title on Sunday"

Twatterface trying to stir about "deep seated issues inside the club" with no balls to back up his bullshit.

This kind of stuff makes our players show up and kick arse.

Unfortunately I think if we tried to kick our own arse we'd fall over at the moment.

How did you come to that conclusion when the amendment states the below

"A state-controlled club is one which is wholly or majority-owned by individual(s), entities, or entities controlled by individual(s) who are deemed by the IFR or the secretary of state to be under the influence of any state actor, including but not limited to: members of any government or their immediate family, a head of state or their immediate family, diplomats, lobbyists, or other state representatives, or their immediate family, and sovereign wealth funds."

Not to go all realpolitik here, but if you think the British Government is going to pass a Bill that directly targets a member of the UAE Government and ruling family of Abu Dhabi then I've got a bridge to sell you. The UAE is an extremely important ally geopolitically, with them being sat in the centre of the China/Russia/US business interests and courting all of them equally, as well as a key balancing force in the region that is dominated by the Saudi/Iran/Israel conflicts. As a former British protectorate with big links here, and a sovereign wealth fund that focuses on international investments and global trade, the British Government is bending over backwards to become as close to them as possible. As I say, if people think Scruffy Jim and the red cartel gang are going to outpower the billions of investment and diplomacy that is happening there, then I don't really know what to tell you

What is twatterface's problem with City? He was cheering when he thought City's last minute goal at Wolves was ruled out, dickhead. Last night his commentary at the swamp was so fawning it was nauseous.

Last time I looked they did exactly that by banning the sale of the Telegraph to SM. So they already have form for doing it
