Which is fair enough, and it has significance, because the PL can’t simply push the burden of proof across to the clubs, which would have been a nightmare for some clubs. But FMV and APT is still in place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 Just now, lovejoy said: 😂 I've not actually read anything from you as yet, i've only gone to the last page or 2. I'll go and have a look at your take now. 👍🏻 It's just shite and me waffling mate. Don't worry. I have like, 30% understanding. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 Just now, Heron said: Aye. The rule is bollocks really. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder isn't it. Something could be worth a fiver to o person but worth 50million to another. So for example, Newcastle is worth £600b which is absolutely fair, I think you'd all agree. Aye, you'll do for me, i've seen enough already. Heron is right 👍🏻 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what he means by significant? He may think it's significant about the loans and that tge burden of proof over APT is now with the PL and any added transparency.

bobbydazzla Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 (edited) So 11 x PL clubs propose a new rule that says any club that wears black n white stripes must give a 5 goal head start in every PL game they play, and the PL put it to vote and it passes by majority Therefore NUFC just have to accept that new rule, because it’s the PL’s competition and they and their members decide the rules of the competition?

TheBrownBottle Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 We’ll find out quickly enough as the PL rules will have to be adjusted ASAP. We’ll also now get a quick resolution to whether or not the club has been waiting to announce loads of sponsors because they were waiting on the Man City case, or whether they have simply been very slow in getting deals in. I know where my money is on that front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mechanics are back to how they were after the takeover and before Feb this year, along with the shareholder loan issue thrown in (which would make it potentially harder for us to sell players).

KetsbaiaIsBald Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 The interest free loans implications could be interesting. They said the rules are unlawful as they allow internet free loans. So until interest free loans are included the rules as a whole are unlawful. If they include loans now a number of clubs will be in breach. If they said we will introduce the loans rules later they are basically saying that they want to run with rules for a period of time that they know are not lawful. So do they either need to add the loans now or remove the rules until they’re added? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 At the very least the door is open for us to bring forward a new sponsor(s) for whatever the biggest things we can combine are (training shirt, ground, + something match day related) and push it to the maximum amount we can reasonably defend. And we can do so without the 'defend this or else' type of fear. It was said in the summer we had a couple things in progress and I'd hope we're ready to move quickly.

Or offer a time to get their collective house in order, I guess, whilst the rules are rewritten. That in itself would come under fire though by those such as ourselves and City, you'd imagine.

Raising the headroom isn’t feasible as clubs are now complying with UEFA rules re outgoings as a % of turnover, and this includes reduced acceptable losses (totalling €90m max over three years) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted October 7 Share Posted October 7 Biggest thing for me is admitting they broke competition law by rushing through the rule specifically to hinder NUFC’s progress to appease their favourite clubs. We should sue the bent bastards for loss of trade/earnings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
