With all respect I’ll take there opinion over yours on this matter. I'll try again : If you think this statement is incorrect can you let us all know what this evidence was actually evidence of?

RS Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 The evidence we have is Ashley claim, albeit primarily (obviously) about damages but also to open the door to PIF, if as Stavely has stated are still interested .The Claimant seeks: (1) Damages for loss of profit or, alternatively, loss of opportunity. (2) An injunction requiring the Defendant to withdraw the Director Decision and/or to reconsider the same. (3) Interest. (4) Costs. (5) Such further or other relief as the Tribunal considers appropriate. So, it’s still progressing and wide open as to how this will eventually pan out. We can only keep our fingers crossed that our case has some good evidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Broon Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 If you actually watch it Keith is more using that letter to describe the process of cross-examination the the PL will have to go through rather than presenting that has strong evidence, he actually acknowledges that it's not particularly strong evidence. But, in hindsight, it is more interesting when set against other stuff about the timing we now know. In his response to Chi Onwurah Masters said: “In June, the Premier League board made a clear determination as to which entities it believed would have control over the club following the proposed acquisition, in accordance with the Premier League rules. “Subsequently, the Premier League then asked each such person or entity to provide the Premier League with additional information, which would then have been used to consider the assessment of any possible disqualifying events. Well, the letter to Hatice Cengiz's QC was written on 29th June, after they had made a "clear determination" that the Saudi state would control the club.

Surely you can see there are gonna be people on the forum from both opinions shouting “told you so” whichever way it goes? It just happens that you’re on the positive side, but that doesn’t mean people who oppose your view are just doing it to prove you wrong? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicane Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 There's a fine line between "positivity" and straight delusional loss of touch with reality This thread jumps across that line a lot it would appear. RTG-esque Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can accept that there will be 'I told you so's' if it goes through, absolutely, but it feels like the negative side is more vitriolic at times. For example, I don't get the constant attempts to get Whitley say whether he's Keith or not. That's hounding him personally, just because of what he believes is happening, and it feels unnecessary.

I mean, for people to beleive that it won't happen means they think the PL acted appropriately and are correct. [That is literally their legal opinion]. It means they're aligning themselves with the likes of Luke Edwards ffs. Where's the evidence to support the PL's standpoint? "Realists" though.

That’s not true. I don’t believe the PL acted fairly, but I also don’t think it’ll go through. Reason being, the PL are unlikely to have left themselves open to lose in court. I suspect it would’ve been done very privately. If the PL believed they were open to lose in court, they wouldn’t be challenging it and we’d have new ownership by now.

Nobody is tortured in here though. It’s a nice distraction from the utter filth we have had to sit through on the pitch. There are only a small few people who seem to be tortured and they constantly keep coming in here to tell everyone else that this thread should be locked or removed. The regular posters in here are not tortured at all, the complete opposite really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumbheed Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 For what it's worth, I dont actually mind a discussion with people who thinks its not on, but from everything I've read (and I have been glued to this thread), I've seen fuck all in the form of actual logical reasoning as to why the PL are correct. That's literally the only singular point you have to demonstrate and yet I see fuck all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhtoon Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't they just say they were examples of the evidence in the public arena. They didn't say it was all the evidence. There's likely going to be some more hard-hitting stuff and stuff not in the public domain. Those anecdotes just help to paint a picture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conversely, the others see the same corruption as you do and see legs in it, thats literally it. Dunno what's so hard to understand with that and why it's pretty relasitic but here we are on a Saturday afternoon discussing it. Just boring as fuck. "Realist" though Same time next week?
