LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Sky Sports have a vested interest. I wouldn't expect any person/company who is benefiting from the current arrangement to speak out. If we aren't allowed to benefit from the bent system then it would be good to bring the whole thing crashing down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Sky sports totally ignoring this aren't they, regurgitating the same old shite hour after hour with nothing new. Stinks a bit that They live for the big 6 versus the also rans narrative, our takeover is a threat to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Broon Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 A decent effort this: It really isn't. It's riddled with errors, inaccuracies and unsubstantiated hearsay. For a start there is no "Appendix 3" to the Owners' and Directors' test (Appendix 3 of the PL handbook actually relates to camera positions) and the test clearly allows consideration of more than the "applicants' financial standing".

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Are the PL an entirely private company? I wonder whether there’s any actual legal requirement for them to apply the test consistently or to answer to anyone except the member clubs. Basically, can they do anything they want?

No, they would be at risk of having litigation brought against them for the financial damage caused if they don't have a sound legal basis for their actions (or lack of action).

Interpolic Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 What annoys me is that the test is nonsense if the scope of it can be changed at will, yet not applied retrospectively. How can they entertain lobbying from competitor clubs for our takeover when there was no such pressure on the likes of Man City and Chelsea when theirs went through?
