Brilliant - the best summary of PL's recent predicament I've seen.Total laughing stock - playing whack a mole everywhere. Started something they can't possibly finish at the behest of the Jealousy clubs, and now just look like idiots.
Agreed, although Chevrolet almost immediately sacked the nobhead that signed off on that agreement, so it would seem to me that the majority of their board were either gaslighted (by misleading stats) or not consulted (can't see that).If the sponsor themself is happy / willing to pay whatever the amount is, surely it follows that the sponsor sees it as “fair value”?
It seems like Master's job interview involved him getting spitroasted by John Henry and Joel Glazier and he loved every second of it.Everyone knows the clubs are behind it, but Scudamore didn't allow them to break the league. Scudamore was much more even handed than Masters, who seems hell bent on overseeing a PL civil war, at the behest of his paymasters.
Imagine building the most innovative commercial operation in club football and then having to hand it over for other PL clubs to copy.There is another side to the fair price sponsorship debate and it’s a bit more unscrupulous. If the PL are able to look into a clubs commercially sensitive material, that gives those on the PL boards a commercial advantage, knowing how the sponsorship is structured. And who is on these boards, undoubtedly there’ll be somebody from the Red tops picking through the detail.
This was, and is still a huge concern to us and why we will not fully cooperate with what the likes of UEFA and PL ask. We are a business first and foremost and giving your competitor critical data is something to be avoided at all times.
El senor Masteros is colluding with Teabag for the further globalization of La Liga.They are stopping investment coming into the game at the top level. What it will do is have an adverse effect on the trickle down of money to the lower leagues. Parry and Masters were hauled before a parliamentary select committee to discuss this, no one seems to be asking them why they are doing something that will kill the game in this country.
Not just Chevrolet. TeamViewer ended their sponsorship early after pressure from their investors, who said the original deal was "appalling judgment".Agreed, although Chevrolet almost immediately sacked the nobhead that signed off on that agreement, so it would seem to me that the majority of their board were either gaslighted (by misleading stats) or not consulted (can't see that).

Indeed the whole house of cards is in danger of crashing down. Limiting owner/shareholder investment was to protect clubs from dependency on owners pumping money into clubs at levels which were "unsustainable" (even though this was a problem at only a few (Italian?) clubs. But limiting spending to "acceptable" sources was no more successful, even though no club has gone bust or into administration since sustainability was never the goal. So the income of certain clubs had to be targeted by limiting their ability to increase "acceptable" revenue. The trouble is that the regulations have to have teeth and a deterrent effect. Hence the clubs likely to be sanctioned are (the PL hopes) City and (possibly/probably) Chelsea, but caught in the crossfire are Aston Villa (showing signs of being undesirably competitive), Everton (using the transfer market not very successfully to try and build a better team and give their fans something to cheer. How disgraceful) and Nottingham Forest (back in the PL after 20 odd years and spending to tryi to stay there). It seems Wolves might avoid sanctions, but even so that means just under a third of PL clubs are facing future changing sanctions from the governing body for infringing P&S rules, though no-one can say that they have done anything wrong. All they can say is that rules are rules, but they cannot say why Everton's spending is more a threat to their sustainability than Manchester United's £1 billion debt is to the rags sustainability. Already a third of the PL is threatened and doon the simple fear factor will have its effect. Hopefully the independent regulator will end all this nonsense in the immediate future. If not the threat to more and more PL clubs to protect the position of a small clique of clubs should lead to the sweeping away of these ridiculous rules that are neither use nor ornament.Yep, we want you to be sustainable by not letting you have a multi million pound deal that will enable you to compete, instead you can have 500k and be happy. What sort of universe are they living in.
