True, but that was the PL making the decision - the arbitrator will make a decision here. Both sets of lawyers will have presented their case, but they would have no clue as to the outcome until the judgement is given. I’ve been through arbitration and adjudication a number of times - no matter how confident you are, you’re none the wiser until the decision is given.

Dr Jinx Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 New agreement signed with BetMGM, if there is really a deficit of 25m to make up, it won’t cover it all but it would certainly give us the option to make up the difference by offloading a player with less value than what our star players or someone like Minteh would fetch. Wilson or Trippier leaving soon? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 It's becoming increasingly obvious that in order to catch up to the numbers game that's going on that we need/must to do a few things in order to bridge the gap. 3 big moves imo: Sponsor everything - the training kit, the training ground, as much as possible. Get as much into the club as possible. Don't care how daft we go - sponsor the fucking frying pans if necessary, max that shit out. New stadium - this one is the major kick in the bollocks. Most fans are attached to SJP but it's just not going to be possible to catch up AND stay at SJP. I love the bones of the place but it's an old-school football ground built to host football matches. The other 340 days of the year where there isn't a football game on it's just sitting there hosting the odd tour or the odd function or whatever. Selling big players - We've got some absolute gems in the squad. Isak, Bruno, Gordon followed closely by Botman, Barnes, Tonali, Joelinton, Willock, Tino & Hall but after that there's little else of real value. We will need to sell a few of that lot in the very near future in order to be able to spend more and add to that list. It's a gradual process but we'll need to bite the bullet eventually. Invest well, buy young, pack out the academy and develop them and add to that pool is going to take a decade tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 (edited) Listened to the athletic podcast about us and it was quite surprising tbh. Waugh and Ornstein between them were very surface level. No discussion on how ridiculous the rules are, we were slammed for our treatment of Minteh and Ornstein was parroting the north London line of well maybe we should check the communication of clubs involved in these deals it’s really alarming to me that the football media are happy to parrot this stuff, monitor clubs communication ffs can you even imagine? Also Waugh talking and parroting about cashflow? I don’t think that’s an issue for us so please don’t parrot it. We are restricted due to rules which make no sense and diminish the sporting integrity of the league that is the only reason. On a separate un related note, the FT yesterday said he the football regulator bill will be passed by labour pretty quickly so it will be interested if that impacts things.

Jonas Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 (edited) I've never known them be so determined about anything (world cup bids, respecting officials, punishing clubs for trying to form other leagues, genuinely protecting clubs from doing a Leeds) as they are about wanting to maintain the status quo and deduct points from and punish other clubs - just for trying to compete. They'd sooner see half the league on minus points, clubs qualifying for the PL/CL and weakening themselves and creating new rules bi-monthly to offset it than allow it to happen.

mattypnufc Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 Given the money that Manure are getting for front of shirt and lack of CL, I’d say there’s wiggle room for a bit more money from SELA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contracts for sponsorship can be renegotiated at anytime surely? The club could enter negotiations with Sela now to increase the annual amount if both parties agree.

Yeah probably but it would run foul of related party transaction rules because it makes no commercial sense for the sponsor to renegotiate such an agreement upwards.

You could even make the extra year option just for sela to exercise. Edited July 3 by KetsbaiaIsBald Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 The Premier league chief was vetted by the big six. They decide the rules and the Premier league abides by them or atleast brings these to the table to vote on. A independent regulator wouldn't be swayed can only be better in the long run.

Any regulator would only have a budget of £10 million……….tiny by PL standards, not sure what we can expect from them. https://www.aoshearman.com/en/insights/moving-the-goalposts-football-governance-bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
