Tsunami Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Can’t see how it would impact us other than perhaps a feeder club or selling them Almiron for his trigger fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mansour Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 RUMOURS OF MARSEILLE SALE DENIED BY FRANK MCCOURT’S TEAM Quote RMC Sport via La Provence report this morning that the entourage of Marseille owner Frank McCourt have denied the recent rumours of the club being up for sale. Quote The American is said to be “outraged” at the reports and has flat-out denied that the club was up for sale – journalist Romain Molina had reported yesterday that talks were underway for a change in ownership with several groups in the last few months. Quote McCourt’s team are even considering legal action against thse propagating the rumours, and have reaffirmed their long-term commitment to OM. President Pablo Longoria is expected in Boston next week to discuss the club’s future with McCourt. Quote The 68-year-old has been in charge of the club since 2016, and was recently in town to watch the club qualify for next year’s Champions League with a 4-0 win over Strasbourg.

This is a quite a good video explaining the model.. Or the Europa League or the Opel Conference. There is a precedent where UEFA have accepted that the two Red Bull teams can compete in the same European competition if sufficient separation between them is demonstrated. Otherwise, if UEFA don't accept that, the team with the lower UEFA coefficient ranking would not be allowed to play in the competition, which would be us at the moment.

Pokerprince2004 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Buying a team in the Polish League will have zero effect on us. No good European players would go to any team in Poland never mind Slask. If they bought Marseille or Inter then it could definitely affect us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Broon Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 On 25/05/2022 at 00:01, Jackie Broon said: Update on the application: It all seemed to be going swimmingly, until yesterday when comments came in from the Council’s ecology and landscape officers. There is the potential for a bat roost within the buildings and surveys will need to be carried out to check for bats. The ecological impact assessment submitted by the architect actually recommends that the surveys are needed, but it seems that they haven’t been carried out and submitted with the application. That’s a frustratingly common oversight, I suspect most architects/agents don't actually read those reports before submitting them. There are also a couple of trees that will need to be removed to make way for the extensions but the architect has not submitted a tree survey, that will need to be done, submitted and assessed. Another frustratingly common oversight. There has also been Japanese Knotweed identified in the area of the extensions and further survey work and a remediation scheme will be needed for that, which will probably be conditioned but with a pre-commencement condition. Which will result in needing to make a discharge of conditions application before starting. Very unlikely they’re going to be able to start this summer now. If a bat roost is identified it isn't necessarily terminal to the application, but would at least delay things further if it would be disturbed, which would require a licence from Natural England. Latest update: seems that they fucked up the ownership certificate in the application form, completing certificate A which is for when the applicant is the sole owner of all of the application site, that must not have been correct because they’ve now submitted a revised application form with ownership certificate B completed. Certificate B is for when all or part of the application site is owned by other people. I suspected that was the case when I first looked at the application because it seems likely that the access is in shared ownership. What this means is that the application timescale restarts from day 0 and the Council will need to allow 21 days from the day they were served notice for the other landowner/s to comment. Again, this is a frustratingly common mistake by agents who never seem to grasp the importance of ensuring the land ownership declaration is correct and that the onus is entirely on them for that.

ponsaelius Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) Different architect but similar mistake was made on the application to move the Shearer statue with NUFC not listed as the applicant originally. In this instance the new consultation period is probably immaterial for timescales because of the need to provide ecology info Edited June 4, 2022 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
