Minhosa Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 honestly though the sooner this is decided one way or another the better, sick of reading about it but at the same time can't stop checking Agreed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I think they'll drag it on to the point where the PIF pulls out in an attempt to save face. Based on absolutely nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinitely Content Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Initial (public) rejection by the end of next week and quick (in comparison) successful appeal. That crossed my mind too, mentioned it in the opening post. I could see that happening too. No question, the PL need to have a rock solid legal basis whatever they decide because they're gonna face a backlash and subsequent legal appeals either way. Indeed, which is why I think it will go on quite a bit longer. They're going to be in no rush for that reason, despite any pressure that may be applied by any of the involved parties. In a strange way, the longer it goes on the more likely it is. I believe if it's no it will come sooner as there's probably slightly less to prepare for in terms of backlash, but if yes, they will be in communication with PIF etc. of what the roadmap is to weather the storm before any announcement - which will take time to get right and have checked and checked again for any holes.

Me too and I think this will happen shortly after the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question, the PL need to have a rock solid legal basis whatever they decide because they're gonna face a backlash and subsequent legal appeals either way. Legal basis, but not necessary solid imo. The test is essentially an internal procedure of an independent organisation. It'll be up to KSA's lawyers to challenge their findings, which should be straightforward, although there is no explicit appeal procedure iirc. I just expect the PL to do everything to keep their key partners BeIN happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just expect the PL to do everything to keep their key partners BeIN happy. To what end though? BeIN are a sports network. They've said they won't bid for rights, but that's not in their self-interest. We're not talking about rugby here, we're talking about the biggest league (in terms of interest) globally. The idea they'd just give that up is crazy. If anything, they want to keep Saudi happy as they will bid for the rights and before you know it you have an auction on your hands.

TRon Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I've changed my mind and voted no. Was convinced it was done and dusted, but the amount of heel dragging has made me suspicious, and so I voted no, but after fucking us about for another month or two. I mean why not just let it stew for a bit longer, they've been doing it for 3 months now anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
