We all know the signs are coming down, that we will be sponsored by Saudi firm and that the PL barring runs out soon, so it's either were end up with Saudi sponsors this week or PL kick the can down the road again.

I’m convinced that the only way to prevent the so called big 6 and the PL from restricting the club striking lucrative sponsorship deals will be to resort to the threat of legal action. Fuck, we can afford the best lawyers available, the time to move would be if they extend the ban any further. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the PL purposefully leave enough of a door open to avoid it and we jump on it then this continues on. PL know this ends up in court with us winning again and them paying dearly. It'll be backdated so we'll just have a massive chunk of cash to play with and we'll tie them up in knots with every other financial opportunity going. I'd also suggest if they did go to court it could threaten other deals that are ongoing and previous. It probably would be the end of the PL self regulating and an independent body stepping in. Tbh their behaviour suggests this is what they want, the beast is too big for them to control now and they want someone else with more authority to do it.

It won’t only be the PL it will be the clubs also. Aside from evidence hinted with the CAT hearing, they have already publicly stated about the fact they were not informed of a strictly confidential process involving NDAs and then we also have the other event of holding a meeting between the clubs and purposely not having NUFC in attendance. Charnley has already made a statement to the clubs about their actions being unlawful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Broon Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Us taking down the sports direct signage puts a different twist on it this time, if they extend the temporary ban any further we can unquestionably demonstrate that it is now costing us sponsorship money.

Need a calculation on how much SD sponsorship would have been worth if MA had been paying proper value for it. I seem to remember the official figure reported was just over 100K?
