PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[hello]

The TeamViewer one was even more inflated.

something like 10% of their entire revenue iirc.

We used to use teamviewer (multiple gov contracts), as soon as they announced that deal a few us starting citing unsuitability to use until they were ditched. Petty yes, but same reason the last microwave cost me £30 more as I refuse to have sharp in the house ;)

A painting by Hockney goes on sale this week with a reserve of £18m. Bargain.

Our local 'artist' sold her bed for 2.5million. Personally think the person who bought it needs locking up !

Just a minor detour off main theme but related I believe. Torygraph today reports 100 (mainly Tory) MPs have signed a decleration opposing the UAE purchase of the publication. Legislation expected to allow foreign takeovers be ’assessed’ for suitability. Ex Oxford/ Cambridge or yank…tick; Jonny foreigner with mountains of cash to invest…. hang on a minute this could disturb our cozy, established power base.

Those nasties complaining are happy to see Torygraph sale to Paul Marshall, the hedge fund manager who bankrolls GB News. And the case against the UAE investment is predicated on loss of impartiality aand balance in reporting!!!!

A sister example of the establishment clinging onto historic power and control and introducing new rules and in this case legislation to keep out new money and retain the status quo with its ways of working that suit their purposes best.

An interesting development which should show soon how our owners are actually viewed by MPs and gvmt!

Yesterday, somebody paid £25k for the shirt Colin Firth wore in Price and Predjudice, is that " fair value " ? Most people would say no but the person who paid for it would disagree, "fair value" is subjective . The Premier League are making themselves a laughing stock

Marxist commerce - an interesting development even for the PL.
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.

Team Viewer rears it's ugly head on these Indian scammers videos when they claim to be "John Smith from Vindows"

Jeez - can almost picture his little face reading that.

Yeh…., look at his face, just look at his face :-)

 

[ZanteWeatherman]

Ridiculous.

How do you decide what is “fair market value”?

And who gets to decide this?

Surely "fair market value" is what a proposed sponsor is prepared to pay to have their logo etc on show to the world (or locality/city/region/country)

False advertising by AST. The court ruled that Harris is NOT a football finance expert.

Ha! That's officially stamped confirmation.

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.

Could be a legal way to oust then from the boards?
