NG32 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Everyone has had their fun and enjoyed the moment so its time to move on, If the new owners have asked politely for some of our fans to stop dressing up, then just stop dressing up. Lets just build a better environment together, so we can all enjoy a new future without Ashley. We can argue all day long about who is offended and not offended.

nbthree3 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Around the 2:30 mark he says 'if people are so worried about competition then it shows there's a serious contender coming their way' (mentions it's a PIF investment and one of many, investing in the stadium the academy the team etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the owners don't really want to be embroiled in any of it for whatever reason, can't say I blame them for that. Hopefully that's the last we'll hear of it.

Unbelievable Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Not sure it’s a good idea to have the Finance minister of the country make such comments if they are intent of keeping the separation charade going Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Separation isn’t an issue now. This was just the guys opinion after being asked the questions. As I saw it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not running PiF, that's the entire point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Fucking hell. How refreshing it is to see someone talk about us like that? Massive smile on my face listening to that. Been told for years about how small and shit we are and how we can’t compete vs that interview. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 They only cared about separation in order to get them to move on bein sports and piracy, nothing else. Now that's done so is separation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcnick Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Now that they are in were going by the same rules as Manchester City, who’s owner is the deputy prime minister of the United Arab Emirates and He is also the owner of the Abu Dhabi United Group (who own city), an investment company for the Abu Dhabi royal family, basically exactly the same as the PIF.

Nothing much if that’s the case. I was just going of the caption that he was KSA minister of finance. i doubt separation will come back to bite, but it’s abundantly clear the 18 clubs minus City will keep digging.

christ Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 The separation stuff is bollocks. The only thing that mattered was BeIN, they just couldn’t say that because they’d have to acknowledge they were lobbied in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw that. Said they’d also reached out to the PL who said they still have no issues with the separation. They (Sky) are actively wanting this to go tits up like. They’re not even being subtle about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
