The "corporation sole" thing is a red herring and likely merely a product of the lawyer or paralegal trying to pick a characterization for something that's not a commonly encountered thing (that being a legal entity formed by royal decree under the law of Saudi Arabia). In any case, how the PIF is characterized on the corporate form of another entity would have no bearing on its actual legal status -- this would be determined under Saudi Arabian and English law, based on the facts and circumstances. It also would not change the fact that under the provisions of the PIF law KSA appoints PIF's directors. (And, obviously, it's pure speculation that PAUK has anything at all to do with the NUFC situation.)

So not interesting or necessarily  relevant given their other UK interests

Depends how you look into it. Quite a few people found it interesting as we have been chatting about it.

By the way - Its quite common for there to be a delay in documents being prepared and the posting and updating within companies house.

 

So......adding 2 and 2 and possibly getting 5....

 

Arbitration is adjourned pending the restructure of PIF's UK companies...

 

The structure of PIF's UK companies is a known stumbling block as to the separation of PIF from the Saudi Royal Family....

 

If the structure is revised to the satisfaction of all concerned....

 

Cans all round?

It's an address change for the PIF and a change in the way it's described on a NCUK Investment Limited filing with the Companies House. NCUK Investment Limited can't change the nature of PIF's legal existence by changing a few words on a Companies House form. The PIF is a creature of Saudi Arabian -- the Saudi Arabian law itself would have to be changed in order for the nature of its legal existence to change.

I’m sure i read somewhere The Abu Dhabi group changed their structure for the Man City takeover to go thru. Im sure it was addressed by caulkin or Douglas or another journo when they said PIF wanted to go thru the front door not the side door. Apologies my memory is terrible

In Saudi Law, PIF are a separate entity to the state anyway - that was always the argument that they presented to PL.  No change required

Probably been answered, but what's the point of doing this then? (updating CH)

Good question - no idea.

 

Maybe theyve been told if you restructure, you can go ahead and takeover the club.

 

Its all bit tenuous and circumstancial Ill admit though

Expand  

If you recall the Arbitration tribunal prefer it if the parties reach a compromise rather than Arbitration deciding the issue before them, so adjourning until early 2022 may have been to allow time for the cpnsortium and tje EPL to reach an amicable compromise such as restructuring the purchasing vehicle to prove separation from the Saudi state!

That obviously makes sense but the speculation here isn't that the nature of PIF has changed, rather that they've cooked something up to avoid PIF having to go through the test at all? Unless I'm misunderstanding, which is entirely likely.

If we believe the company NCUK was specifically formed for the takeover of Newcastle how is it not interesting or relevant 

Expand  

Because it wasn't?

 

Companies House listings and person's of control mean absolutely bot all.

 

I used to work for a company in Shields that listed everything religiously on there, but didn't stop them going bust and disappearing in a week
