The PL has absolutely no legitimate reason to insist on confidentiality if the club and consortium want an open process. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I mean if you ignore the irony of that statement it's fucking bang on in a lot of ways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely posting all of that makes it even less likely that the premier league will do this in public though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 It know its been said Keith knows nothing but apparently he received the statement before it went public. Also received it before Edwards and Jacobs, so I think that should be noted. He might not know everything but its clear he still has a decent line of communication with the buyers/Ashley.

Yet there will still be people on here who think he’s a self serving gobshite. Whilst he may not be in the inner sanctum, he clearly is given info of what’s happening before it’s made public.

Slim Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I don't get why the CAT would even consider it not being public. From what I can see all of them are done like that so why would the prem be special? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Kennedy has just inferred that (the jurisdiction challenge has failed) from the club's statement, possibly incorrectly because the wording of the statement is very unclear on that point.

So in other words, if the information is so damaging to the PL, then they might keep it behind closed doors. Might actually be good news for us if they do keep everything quiet then, it's a good indication that there's a lot of really bad stuff in there.

Wandy Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 It doesn't matter that much if the CAT case goes ahead in private because all that matters is the result. Let's face it, the national media don't want the takeover to happen so even the most scandalous of revelations will barely get a mention by them.

Told... by the club's statement. The article suggests that he's just taken that from the statement, but I think he's possibly wrong. "It is currently attempting to prevent the competition courts considering a claim by the sellers from taking place in public," (prevent the CAT case, which would take place in public, from going ahead) "arguing that too should be held in confidential arbitration."

Seemingly he got a call from the club during the pre-recorded show last night about the statement coming out. Somebody who is watching tonight can confirm that.
