i saw edwards commenting on this and he was of the opinion that "market value" would be whatever the top deal in the league is +10%, or something along those lines

 

i've no idea if he's right but if that's the proposal then i've no issue with it at all, it'll be a defacto cap for the richer clubs anyway

What if us, Chelsea & Man City just got together and kept adding 10% every deal.

More legal action for NUFC?

 


 

They should just go ahead with whatever they want to do and then leave it up to arbitration (confidential) to sort the mess out. Once our lawyers get involved all those cunts will back off.

So Ashley actively suppressed our commercial activities, we’re now the wealthiest club in the world, with an increasing exposure because of this. Who knows where we’ll be in 5 years time. How much is that worth then. 
 

It’s almost comical the obstacles that are being chucked at us. We need to go in heavy handed to stop all this nonsense. I’d have been happy with a single League Cup. I hope we knock some these owners and some of their fans completely out of the park.

Be a slow process though as they're always multiple year deals obvs

 

Anyway idk if Edwards knows anything or not but that idea a lot fairer than just shitting on us specifically :lol:

So, there’s a working party to develop solutions to a perceived problem for which the solutions have already been devised and extensively briefed to The Athletic and The Times? Seems legit

I’d like to see that stand up legit in court of law. There is no market value cap on anything really, I’ve spent 30k or so on my gaff, if I value it at the rate I paid for it plus what I’ve spent and some profit, it will go unsold forever. It’s an ‘open’ market where capitalism rules, it’s a free market, etc. etc. and if they go down this route, cap player wages, transfer fees and so on. Like fuck is Shelvey at ‘realistic’ market value worth anywhere near what he’s paid or Harry fucking McGuire is worth 80m +, it’s all absurd!

Nothing to worry about, this simply doesn't stand up in court and we will drag them through it again. We'll point back to our commercial income before Ashley and show it was above Everton & around Tottenham and that really is our true value. They'll ask why these restrictions to protect clubs weren't forced the other way, with NUFC being bled dry by Sports Direct for 14 years. Are they going to allow for the very conservative amount of £10m a year lost and allow us to recoup the £140m owed to us? Most importantly they'll ask why so many other clubs have deals such as Everton's £12m a season training ground sponsorship, the deals which keep Citeh afloat and the whole game will be blown wide apart. I'm looking forward to it. Bring it on. So many legal cases ahead for the PL to pay for.

Do you have a source for this cause the first time you mentioned it I couldn't find it.  I did find some record of them getting deals through companies Moshiri was linked with though but not that specific thing.

 

Wider point it was Ashley taking the PL to court as an outgoing owner/member of the league, I think the new ownership taking them to court will be the last thing they want even if they know they'd win, which they surely would.

I can't quite remember when i saw it but it was in a financial report the likes of Maguire does via twitter. Its Usmanov their other shareholders company who sponsors them irrc. He'll also sponsor the new ground for £30m.

It’s mentioned in here but doesn’t state the figure:

 

The club also revealed that the Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov, a business partner of the majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri, has strengthened his ties with the club after agreeing to pay £30m up front for an exclusive option on naming rights for their new stadium. Usmanov’s holding company USM already sponsors Everton’s training ground.

Thing I saw was £60m from one of Usmanov's companies I think but it didn't specifically mention the training ground.  Doesn't matter like just wondered.  It was a while ago as well, 2017 I think.

Did he not sponsor a sign at the training ground for like £50 million or something?

Yup, either or its the exact thing the PL want to stop, so I guess this deal has to fall through and any money earned beyond reasonable has to be fine from the club. Only fair.

I think they will have already threatened legal action and would surely take the league/clubs to court if it is going to have a major impact on their overall plans. Ashley at the time of the court case was not an outgoing owner/member of the league (he was a current owner/member) and that is exactly the reason he went to court.

Shame they weren’t arsed about Sports Direct paying nowhere near market value or within 10% of the competition.


“Mike Ashley owns the club, he can do what he wants with it” that was a line constantly fed to us by anyone and everyone.

 

Now it’s, “Saudi own the club and they’re not allowed do anything”

 

Such hypocritical arseholes.
