I'd imagine rangers sell more shirts than ourselves so no issues on that front. There were some complaints about shoddy sweatshirts etc, but the problem with the kits seemed to be some people were accidentally sent the yet-to-be-released "pro" version, which was to be identical to match-worn, and so people were comparing their tops to their mate and feeling like they'd got a shoddy batch.

I thought the government was on our side and reading some of this email stuff it seems to me that they didn’t and can’t have any influence in pushing this through even though economically it’s a no brainer to get the deal done. Electromagnetic force is a force of attraction or repulsion between all electrically charged particles. This force is transferred between charged particles of matter by fundamental force-carrying particles called photons. Because of electromagnetic force, particles with opposite charges attract each other and particles with the same charge repel each other. Inside the atom, two types of subatomic particles have electric charge: electrons, which have an electric charge of -1, and protons, which have an opposite but equal electric charge of +1 To Be Continued.......Negative Nelly!

et tu brute Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 things seem to be ramping up again. Some good articles by Hope and Musgrave highlighting the corruption going on.

If the PL are confident enough to fuck the PM off, it seems like their heels are well and truly dug in. MBS intervening though doesn't necessarily mean he isnt a separate entity to PIF though. Doesnt damage arbitration proceedings from what I can see. Yep I agree with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Exactly what dr zaius says, bin salman asking boris to intervene proves absolutely nothing in terms of PIF being 'legally' separate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But surely the argument here is that the highest courts in SA gave written notice that the two were separate entities and the PL said "aye, nah" so MBS went to Boris and said "Tell them will you."

This is a side issue to do with Cameron and cronieism, no impact as far as I’m concerned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 We're trying to tell the arbitration panel that MBS has no involvement with our takeover and there he is telling Boris to get the deal done or he will cut trade with the UK. That absolutely does us no favours. However, I agree that it "shouldn't" be enough ammo for the PL to kill the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Never understood why this whole ‘being separate entities’ thing mattered anyway tbh. As long as they’re prepared to run a club properly, literally nothing else should matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candi_Hills Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Any chance the PL have had this article put out to make the buyers look like dodgy lobbyists, and as a response to getting done by the Ronny Gill.

It should be interpreted as what it actually is, instead of the opposite of what it actually is. It "should" be, but that might not sell enough papers and/or 'clicks', I suppose!

The Prophet Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Given its last years news, you wouldn't expect it to make a huge amount of difference to the parties involved. It sounds like it has been leaked to apply some adverse pressure on the backdrop of the Cameron lobbying scandal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If nothing else, that front page is going to ramp up public opinion against us. All the media gobshites will be on it tomorrow. Think it’s a coincidence and more to do with lobbying in light of Cameron. For all the noise today separation will be decided by a technicality argued by QC’s. The arbitration is based solely on this one point. Even for all the talk of wrong doing by the PL today, I don’t think this will have any bearing on arbitration and would only come into play in NCSL’s anti competition case. The Mail article even tries to link the deal being back on due to lobbying, which we know is bullshit. We knew MBS held a call with Boris not to long back, it wouldn’t take a genius to guess this was brought up in that conversation. However, governments will often support companies get trade deals abroad, and there’s nothing in that article to damage the separation argument. I’m sure the likes of Ben Jacobs will dramatise it to full effect, but for me it’s interesting nothing else and will have no impact on arbitration.
