Guest The Little Waster Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 What if Masters is being blackmailed by Qatar ? Pretty serious allegation. Any evidence behind it or just a random thought? Random thought . These are states we are dealing with now not just dodgy businessmen . They will stoop as low as possible and then some - especially given the circumstances of the proxy war between Qatar and Saudi . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Little Waster Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 The PL is not beyond being corrupted . Whos to say that Masters wasnt manouvered into his job by either the elite clubs wanting to maintain their status in perpetuity or by the Qataris ? Would explain a lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 It's not that much of a stretch when the Qataris are involved tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Masters is mates with Richard Keys too, who we all know is the real baddy head honcho in all of this. The Brittle one has solved the mystery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would explain a lot It wouldnt explain why it hasn't already been rejected. It would explain why it hasnt yet been passed . At least if they knock it back after so much time the PL can say they gave it their best shot . Elsewhere in football people connected with Qatar are being accused and in some cases convicted of corruption . Think on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 What if Masters is being blackmailed by Qatar ? Pretty serious allegation. Any evidence behind it or just a random thought? Love this.

Random thought . These are states we are dealing with now not just dodgy businessmen . They will stoop as low as possible and then some - especially given the circumstances of the proxy war between Qatar and Saudi . It be pedantic I believe the proxy war is actually between Iran and Saudi Arabia / Shia and Sunni Islam. Qatar are caught up in it due to their ties to Iran (despite Qatar being majority Sunni). Saudi Arabia probably have far more capacity for espionage than Qatar, hacking Jeff Bezos's phone and email account for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems to me like theres been a list of hoops PIF are having to jump through re piracy and possible directors and that takes time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Tbh I'm as pessimistic as anyone about this but "preparing for life without a Saudi takeover" is all they can do at this stage. It doesn't mean anything and is clickbait nonsense. The end of the season is upon us. We can't not plan, and we can't plan for something which hasn't happened yet. Pretty fucking obvious what they have to do, which is what they are doing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more likely that the PL are just unhappy with Saudi Arabia for allowing their product to be stolen, rather than there being any significant Qatari influence on the process.

I think these allegations of Qatar being able to corrupt anyone in world football are just disgusting. We shouldn't even suggest such a thing.
