We all presume and expect us to spend up to the FFP limit and in order to do so it had be backed by capital from the ownership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry yes - typo on my part - I meant to say that the PL were stupid enough to go with the ‘separation proved’ like the club gave them.

Absolute self interest they couldn’t give a fuck about fit and proper, I mean Levy has some cheek when his puppet master Joe Lewis is facing prison time. They can whinge all they like no U.K. govt is telling PIF they can’t own a British business unless there’s a dramatic breakdown in a relationship spanning decades with the Saudis.

As for retrospectively applying new rules on existing ownership just won’t happen, if they tried it would end up in huge legal battles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 About time really, the horse has well and truly bolted though. The PL has already assured everyone PIF is separate from the Saudi state, they won't retract that now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggys First Goal Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 In the grand scheme of things, we haven’t done what people expected us to do when the takeover happened. Everyone was like Neymar, Mbappe, Messi. If they should be complaining about anyone it’s Chelsea Todd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 I always thought the owners test was to makesure they had the funds to actually keep the said club on a financially stable footing. So no chance of administration. Not to stop the the new owners from spending because they're a state. The cartel aren't very bright considering if they need new owners they'll more than likely will be state owned to be able to afford them. Man utd 7 billion liverpool 6 billion. Cannot see mike Ashley been able to afford them prices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether we’ll be taken along for the ride remains to be seen, I have some doubts. Saudi ambitions will be far bigger than just having a good domestic league, and far far bigger than having one good premier league side. When super league time comes and they’re picking clubs get into it, the core member clubs will probably vote us out. I would hope we get "voted out" or they or we use literally any excuse to not join such a wretched and ridiculous competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
