The purpose of the fit and proper persons test was to safe guard against clubs being made insolvent due to poor financial management. This clear wouldn’t be a factor for us giving the financial clout involved. What's even more pathetic is that these same big clubs which dictate PL policy are the same ones who tried to wreck English football with their ESL project. Yet still the PL will bend the knee when Man U, Liverpool etc send instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Think if we do go down and the price of the club is halved then RBs and AS will be in on their own. I'd take that right now. Could Ashley not list the club as a plc and sell shares retaining whatever stake he likes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 The easiest thing for him to do is just sell pieces of it. Go in the background, and let others run it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Interesting stuff from Tracey crouch and the independent football review. Nick de marco seems to like what he's hearing too. I think this could be the start that the entire PL and big 6 crumble. Also good news for our takeover as it would be out of the hands of the PL's O&D test.

When you read the full recommendations its an absolutely horrific for they way Masters and Hoffman are running the show.

Scotty66 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Even if it does take ages this gives us more weight against any panel or judge I would think. Anyone who rules against it is simply delaying time as this is what is going to happen in the future. I think De Marco would use it to back up his claims and cases. Obviously he and not me know exactly the best way to go about that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
