It's a high 9 with Bruce, if you can't pick up points against the teams around you then the odd spawny win against the top teams is mathematically useless. It's only early in the season but the early damage that's been done cannot be underestimated.

We'll get to December without a win under this useless sack and he'll still be here getting lauded by his media chums.

If its illegal then one would presume common law, jail time would be nice.

I think its more to do with a royal family not wanting the PL pawing through their private information.

I think the important work is now done, this goes through and the PL shake hands under the table, there's no way the whole process goes public. The result of this has to be the linchpin that makes the decision, if CAT decide against jurisdiction then the PL will never back down.

Jowell bring less waffle and more receipts.

Aye but shows evidence of a two tier system, especially if, for example, it was proven that Man City has a shadow director that has been discounted not only on the original ODT but every year since, when it clearly states in their own rules (Something reiterated several hundred times by their QC) that should such a director refuse to be subjected to the ODT then they will be disqualified from the league.

Not to mention that we clearly have an entity ourselves able to make decisions that's not listed in SJHL

Based on no legal background whatsoever it seems to me that the PL arguing that the case is being heard in its own arbitration case following its own rules doesn't discount the fact that its own rules and it's liberal use of them in this scenario are in question for being anti-competitive. Also the argument that a legal entity is bound by their rules (horizontally) because another legal entity connected to it is, regardless of the fact the given legal entity is not directly contractually bound sounds frivolous to me, they call it a strawman, I call it an oversight that has the potential to bite them on the ass.

Is that the wafflegoblin finished for good now?

This guys not going to let anyone else speak for eternity

So PL only have a small d?

Someone needs to cut him off before everyone dies of old age

Gone round in so many circles he's stuck up his own arse

Desperate to prove a point based on no contractually bound information.

He's trying to argue that they have to be a controlling party even though they are not a named director, feels like a feeble argument, by rule of law surely it should only be counted as a controlling party if it is written into the contract.

I feel like he's flapping at the moment. He's nervous about the actual standing of SJHL.

So SJHL is not a named director but he's making as many arguments as possible to say that they have to be.

He's basically saying every holding in the company is classed as a controlling party and thus bound by the PL rules.

It's tantamount to going into a heavyweight championship fight with the oppositions belt on the line and we're just windmilling with our eyes shut.

I don't even think it will need a top manager either, pretty much anyone with an ounce of knowledge of setting up a team and tactical wherewithal will give the team the desired bounce. Bruce has stunk the place out, someone just needs to open a window.

Couldn't score in a brothel our lot, completely impotent without Wilson

Against a team that could finish both us and Leeds would have been battered by 4 or 5 easily.
