Info is what they are really after. If they get our numbers they will be shocked at how minor our Abudhabi sponsorships are, Etihad apart. And, of course, our AbuDhabi Palace Hotel sponsorship is chinese.

PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Oh no. That’s different. New rule 23b states “ Redshirts May spy on City and hack their IT, wreck their team coach and ARE EXEMPT FROM ALL SPONSORSHIP REGULATIONS, especially concerning terror sponsoring banks.”This just gets sillier and sillier.
So if a Saudi Company is not able to sponsor Newcastle and City likewise with Abu Dhabi does this mean that the American owned teams can't have American sponsors on their books?

Welcome to our world!As a Newcastle fan these new rules they're* trying to push through are hilarious and so fucking transparent. We've abided by FFP, we've got a stack of new 'fair market value' commercial deals, and now here's some new hurdles. The established cartel are bricking it that we'll usurp them.
We can't loan a player from the Saudi league, but literally every other club in the league can? That seems totally fair. Will it stop Chelsea hoovering up young players from their feeder clubs, or Man Utd, or Liverpool? Course it won't.
We can't get a sponsor unless we've got similarly valued bids from other companies? Has that been the case for Man Utd's official tractor partner? Were there multiple tractor companies all offering up partnership deals for the same price? Was there shite.
We've not spent anything like the money Chelsea and Man Utd have, and yet we're still above them, still playing better football, still fielding the likes of Jamall Lascelles and Jacob fucking Murphy. This is all because they're scared their time at the top is coming to an end, they're trying to pull the drawbridge up behind them.
*by "they" I mean Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd and Spurs.
Wait till they form a rule about shirts resembling barcodes being illicit sponsorship of the products the code represents. Oh, if if your name contains the word ‘new’ that is a fine of 10% of turnover. Don’t forget, they have sponsored the PL to prefer 115 nonsensical charges against us. (It is actually 3 Charges repeated over and over again which boil down to “Your accounts are fixed.”) No evidence has been forthcoming.As a Newcastle fan these new rules they're* trying to push through are hilarious and so fucking transparent.

Amid the euphoria of your takeover ( And why wouldn't you be happy? ) We did warn you this was coming. We've faced it since 2008 and continue to do so to this day.

City were asked if Etihad was a related party to which City said they weren't. I thought this wasn't an issue.
I imagine he means associated (as defined by the PL) as opposed to related (as defined by everyone else).

We all know what they are and they won't win, I hope Newcastle start spanking the money out to be honest and I will watch with great satisfaction our title battles in the not too distant future.
