So after the Newcastle take over, Chelsea have been quietly dropped from the MSM hate list, the new gig in town and parroted last week by Bingo is “state owned” as in “we know three clubs are now state owned”, ok so putting to one side Mansour is a privately very rich man who owns a majority of MCFC approx 75%, the bad guys are the ones backed by a state.
We have no chance when even our own @BlueMoonPodcast is broadcasting that we are state owned

i‘ve often wondered how many we have who make a living out of City who don’t really have our back. Over at the swamp everyone is aware of the deal and stick to it. All this shit about ”we rise above it” as opposed to taking our enemies to the cleaners does make you wonder if those taking their wage give a fuck, could you imagine Ferguson letting the equivalent of Jamie Lesbian Jackson into the swamp? No he’d have him thrown off the property. We have the BBC at Media City propagating lies and half truths, wtf don’t the club sort them out.
 
Really does makes you wonder where the game is going to end up, you’ve got a section of ‘new money’ on a direct collision course with ‘old money’ with the rest slowly picking their sides. It’s never been so evident that a full scale collision is due, all this stuff used to be done in shadowy meetings in New York, it’s now done openly in public.

The whole Super League saga blew it into the open for me
 
And so it begins, City vote with Newcastle against the cartel, let battle commence.


Sadly it’s not just the Yank Red Shirt cartel anymore. The Yanks now seem to have a majority power base in the PL. Aided by the PL. Clubs who fear relegation, now fear Newcastle. Including the 3 promoted clubs. Clubs who want a top 6 or top 4 finish fear Newcastle long-term. Bar City.

Edit - She’s deleted the tweet now but it was a BBC Manchester Sport radio commentator defending Newcastle by saying something along the lines of ‘no one cares about City’s sponsorships with Qatar’

So more misinformation by a supposed journalist who believes the Etihad deal is a related party agreement. How difficult is it to get facts correct when it’s your job to report facts?
 
It was okay for Mike Ashley's Sports Direct to sponsor Newcastle, but it's not okay for a company in Saudi Arabia to sponsor them?

I can't see why Newcastle (and reportedly City) think that's unlawful, but I guess it depends what it says.

The deals already have to be fair value if related, so I guess the aim is to stop unrelated Saudi companies being involved. It's almost certainly been drafted badly, and I wonder how long the temporary bit is.

Edit: as @Prestwich_Blue has posted this just now on the FFP thread: Temporary is 3 weeks.
 
So it’s OK to have a shirt sponsor, and to renew that shirt sponsorship deal, even though the shirt sponsor has been fined £100+mill in the UK for.....

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has fined Standard Chartered Bank (Standard Chartered) £102,163,200 for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) breaches in two higher risk areas of its business. This is the second largest financial penalty for AML controls failings ever imposed by the FCA.


Standard Chartered has been ordered to pay $1.1bn (£842m) by US and UK authorities to settle allegations of poor money-laundering controls and breaching sanctions against countries including Iran.

Sadly, it isn't their job to write facts. Their job is now to bring in clicks and engagement with their articles. That's it.

So they write bollocks so that angry people share it and more people read it and talk about it.
 
How can other clubs block another clubs sponsorship deals,just doesn’t make sense,so if someone like Tesla or Amazon wanted to sponsor Newcastle in some capacity clubs can block it ,next it’ll be trying to block certain teams from signing players ff….
It must be illegal under competition laws. You can't have a situation where commercial rivals band together to stop another rival from investing in their product. It's another example of the football authorities ( in this case the PL) losing their grip on reality. It will not stand a legal challenge just as everything UEFA has done has collapsed as soon as it is taken to court. The fair market value test is already accepted by the PL and UEFA and that should be enough.

City officially recognise the cartel element of the PL.

Hopefully the new found diplomacy of UAE and Saudi Arabia will rat the cunts out for good.
 
Fair market value is the only term that should come into play.

If MBS wants his name on the Newcastle shirts, so what? It's his club and he should do as he pleases.

As said, as long as they receive fair value, there should be no issue.
