Guest neesy111 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Sounds to me like a premptive damages case if they win the arbitration case Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure exactly what powers this tribunal has. Mind, not keen on the date. Doesn't leave long before the start of the season. Could see the PL do everything they can to delay it as well pushing it in to next season. At that point if i were Ashley i'd be spending £100m on players and charging the PL for them to protect his asset whilst this goes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, you'd think the best outcome would just be for the PL to accept arbitration and reconsider anyway. Guess it acts as a threat hanging over them in case they don't. Would be nice to know more about where arbitration is at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With everything going on now, the PL could save a lot of hassle and let the takeover happen with a pat on the back for themselves for their robust O and D test.

After all the shit with the ESL they now have to go through this, twice, and it won't be the last of it if the club loses, they'll appeal and keep finding new avenues of attack and damage seeking.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 At the same time, there might be some positive PR in being seen not to let another dodgy billionaire come in. I know that doesn't make sense with who they've allowed before, but still... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Putting more pressure on the PL to scrap arbitration, avoid a hefty lawsuit and potential damages. I've said it before, the PL will ask for some token from the consortium, in order to save face. It will be something that suggests that they have done their due diligence re the saudis but ultimately let's the takeover go ahead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 So Ashley's making out that if there wasn't really a takeover in the first place we'd be competing much better in the league? Yes Mike, it's because of the takeover. Yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I would love to know the figures. Hopefully tens of millions, possibly even a metro station or two. Some of the repercussions of breaking U.K. competition law - Your business could be fined up to 10% of global turnover. Directors can be banned from running a company for 15 years. Individuals can go to prison for 5 years. In short Masters, Hoffman, Spurs and Liverpool might be a tad concerned.

It's been suggested on here before that Ashley might take this route and other posters have laughed the idea off for the same reason you're laughing at it now. Here we are though...

Whitley mag Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 This guarantees it’s all played out in public and can be fast tracked, the exact things the PL didn’t want. The arbitration would have been limited to separation, this allows all the evidence of corruption from big 6 and Bein to be brought into play. Always remember NDM said arbitration was a last resort. That settlement might still be on lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No lie, I'm trying to form a tiny consortium here in Atlanta to buy some depressed properties near-ish to GSU and Georgia Tech to turn into dispensaries when (not if - it'll definitely happen) it gets legalized. Just perfect placement near the campuses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Yes! The timing is perfect for Kane leaving Spurs too. Good times chaps, good times. I reckon if Citeh win the Champions League we might be able to tempt Kante to leave Chelsea too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 If Ben Jacobs had just posted his last tweet he would have been correct. This is about pressure and disclosure of information, particularly in the light of ESL revelations. It’s about trying to force a settlement in the current climate.
