Rich Posted Tuesday at 11:01 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:01 I would like to see us try and take the piss, too, btw, but something is stopping us from doing so. I think we've shaken on something to get the takeover through, personally, but it could easily just be that it's not the way PIF wants to present itself to the wider world.

SteV Posted Tuesday at 11:02 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:02 Just now, Dokko said: Did I say breach? I said Chelsea style. Bend the system till it breaks. Sell a golden lifetime box, the women's team, a square patch of land on the training ground. Whatever it was, judt not selling 2 promising young players and miss out on another. In an ideal world yes, but you can’t just magic things up to get round it. We haven’t got a hotel to sell. Our women’s team aren’t in the WSL so aren’t as ‘valuable’. As it is the whole Anderson/Vladdy deal was a massive bend of the rules. We did as much as we could without venturing into the realms of something we would get punished for.

Villa will sell the women’s team to a holding company I think to cobble together the cash to stay compliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted Tuesday at 11:04 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:04 I'd have taken the points deduction. Who needs the CL and a Cup this season when we could've prepared ourselves to.. maybe get the CL and a Cup next season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could and for me, should have got creative and pushed as hard as possible and tie the lwsgue up in knots in court like citeh. You asked, thsts my take, always has been and always will be. Psr needs to go and I'm happy to see the club push masters off a cliff when possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted Tuesday at 11:06 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:06 I can’t believe the club haven’t called upon N-O’s PSR experts to tell them how to get around the regulations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiemag Posted Tuesday at 12:01 Share Posted Tuesday at 12:01 Surely with our recent success in Champions League qualification in 2 out of 3 seasons and winning the EFL cup. We can get higher value sponsorhip approved from FMV? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s simply a case of the rules being drafted broadly so that they can be applied selectively, specifically with us in mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
