Luke Evans, Conservative MP for Bosworth can get to fuck, the smarmy prick.

Luke Evans Conservative, Bosworth​

The Minister is a diligent man, and I am pleased that he has taken the time to look into the system and is coming forward with a White Paper next week. He cannot comment specifically on the Manchester City issue, but the fact that there are more than 100 charges—particularly about not co-operating —does raise questions. Will he confirm that the independent regulator will have the power to compel clubs to co-operate with the Premier League and the authorities when they are dealing with such important issues?"

Could we have a whip-round to buy Utd? Give the Glazers £10bn in recognition of their services to football. Then run the club into the ground but slowly, a slow lingering demise over the next 15 years would be nice.

does raise a valid question, what if entities from Abu Dhabi where to bid, Can you imagine the outrage, yet it’d be perfectly fine for the good old USA to own multiple clubs, same for the Qatari’s if they are successful (with their links to PSG). I believe the entire football collective would come together to prevent it, even if only tedious links to our owners were proved

Just buy it then close it down, why wait.

The same reason a cat doesn't kill a mouse instantly, but toys with it , until it gets bored . . .and then

Surely any buyer would also want to see the debts hidden in the cayman island accounts?

We don’t know what is in the data set provided to bidders.
Any debts impacting on the balance sheet of what is for sale would have to be declared.

Perhaps someone at Westminster could point out out to Luke Evans MP (btw, no relation.. I joined the Labour Party as a student in 1973 and remain to this day) that:

(a) charges laid are not evidence of actual events and actual behaviours, even when the volume of charges appears to be 'high'
(b) being charged with 'non-cooperation' by CAS and PL is a nonsense, given the right of any organisation in any field of operation to refuse access to its documents/records without specific charges being laid (to prevent 'fishing expeditions')
(c) of the latest iteration of English footballing power, the 'Big Six', only one of those clubs has voted in favour of the PL accepting the independent regulatory oversight Luke Evans is in favour of, namely Manchester City
(d) probably 99.9% of City supporters agree with the club's stance on point (c)

Yet another grandstanding, bandwagon-jumping Tory twunt who doesn't know what he's talking about..
