Exactly. Liew knows what he’s doing. He might be a **** but he’s discernibly smarter than Delaney.

So is an amoeba.

Which is the Arsenal fan? It's difficult to tell.

Is that when Adeybayor scored?

While I can agree with the sentiment, I find it hard to see what power the red clubs hold over the PL at the moment.

At the time the investigation was started, there may have been the threat of the ESL, but that is dead in the water now. I liken the PL weakness to the same weakness Platini showed with FFP in the face of the same threat, and look at what a shambles that turned out to be. I expect this investigation to turn into a shambles at some point for the same reason.

What the PL should have done, if they were stronger, was wait until the UEFA investigation was finished then build anything else they had on top of whatever was successful there. But as we know, there was nothing successful.

Right now? I don't see any reason why the PL couldn't have just said: we investigated and were happy with the responses we received. Why does the PL think it needs this drama and why the continued weakness?

The very pertinent difference, as I understand it, is that with UEFA there was recourse to a truly independent arbiter. If there wasn't, we'd have been booted out of the CL for two years based on what was established to be "no evidence" whatsoever.

Personally, I'd like to see the payments going out of Rosen's bank account to prove that he is actually paying for his membership at Arsenal and not receiving it as a "perk".

Does anyone really take him seriously? He looks like a 5th former who's just been caught having a wank in the girl's toilets. The infinitely more talented Jonathan Agnew was 100 % right about him - he's a clickbait c*nt.

You don't think the Premier League actually want this shit with City, I certainly don't.

The lobbying from a powerful collection of clubs who want their ball back and using their 'status' to put the executive between a rock and a hard place.

But the Premier League ARE these clubs, hence why they're so against an independent regulator.

I can see a few PL Executive Officers being VERY wary about their pursuit of City, & they probably just want to get on running the league & protecting it from the Super League, but the 20 clubs are their Masters, & the PL Executive are their employees...

There's a monkey & organ grinder scenario here, & several of the 20 PL Clubs are plinking away on the ivories like Liberace & the Executive are merely dancing along to their Masters' tune!

They make me sick! :-/

Common sense you say? ;-)

Anyone would thing we were bribing referees rather than investing our own money….see Juve and Barca.

Ask most fans what they think we have done wrong and they have no idea.

We cheated!

At what is where they're all stumped! :-/

100%.

Would you put UEFA’s executive in the same boat too mate?
