"The claim says the rules were imposed at the instigation of certain rival clubs reacting to the Saudi takeover of Newcastle, with the aim to “safeguard their own commercial advantages”. They say rivals were seeking to limit deals from companies in the Gulf region, citing a quote from a senior executive from another club."

I look forward to a Saudi toilet paper company sponsoring each seat in the stadium for 100k each, bringing in 5.2 billion per season.

 

I think the partnership could work well.

Aramco Park!

Why do people keep saying Aramco would be a PIF choice of major sponsor? Surely they’d be the very last option :lol:

City challenging the associated party sponsorship regulations. If they're successful then the PIF (in theory) could pump money into the club with inflated sponsorships. Apparently plenty of teams supporting City in the action. 

 

Is that in the article??

One that goes completely against their current mission statement and strategic planning. Don’t see it myself.

Agreed. Way more likely it's another one of their companies no one will have heard of before us.

I think it's the opposite...

The league’s other 19 clubs have been invited to participate in the legal action and The Times understands between ten and 12 have stepped forward, providing either witness statements or a letter detailing evidence in support of the Premier League’s defence against the claim.

Given city let us down in the cup final it seems they want to make amends with this :lol:

 

Jokes aside, it’s embarrassing it’s come to this. Let’s just make rules which allow everyone to compete on an even footing.
