So can the Saudis pump more money to catch up with the Sky6 ?

 

It's as clear as mud as usual but it does seem things have softened in terms of the rules. The bit about exceptions being made for sponsorship linked to clubs that are ran by countries was interesting though.

How does this address the shareholder loans though? Are they just drawing a line under the historical loans? Surely that can't be allowed. Certain clubs have been given an unfair advantage which would be hard to quantify or roll back? 

 

Yeah, unless they do it retrospectively over the past three years, which the clubs with shareholder loans will never vote for, they have what the tribunal has ruled is an unfair advantage baked in for the next three years.

So what happens if these are rejected assuming the old rules can't stay in place?

 

Will have to come up with other amendments until it’s deemed legal and passes through.

 

You’d expect the clubs* have been involved in these amendments being suggested though which would almost guarantee safe passage through.

 

It’d make no sense for the Premier League to turn up without consulting.
 

*Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool and anyone else Man Utd chose to let in

Right, but the likelihood of 14 clubs accepting a solution like this is much greater if the alternative is a free for all than if the alternative is the continuation of the current set of rules (which albeit deemed unlawful suited them fine).
