    If the PL wants to play politics then all the Saudi's have to do is approach the Government. After all, they share intelligence with the UK relating to international terrorism and are one of our biggest trading partners. Qatar is a source of middle eastern terrorist sponsorship apparently....

    The implications of the prem blocking this are severe. I really do pray the people claiming the prem already passed it are correct, however I fail to see any reason it wouldnt have been announced . Fingers crossed.

    I'm clueless about law, but surely the buying and selling side have worked a plan around that?

    Guess who owns Bein sports. A Qatar based group. Who does Qatar border. You guessed it. Saudi Arabia. This conflict that Bein sports has is totally political. Bein would hate the fact that we are being bought because it may have a negative affect on them.

    Amnesty are involved because they have an obligation to do what is right. Fair enough you may say. But if you look at the owners of premier league football clubs! See next post!

    I'm sure none of that matters.. the only thing is whether they're guilty of a crime which in this case is piracy .. without a conviction I assume it wont matter?

    Qatar should just **** right off. PSG's owners will be pissed because they are no longer able to compete.

    Nearly Every one of the owners has some connection to something dodgy. Delias is cooking.

    Seriously though when you look at it the list is basically the worlds richest criminals.

    It is not about right and wrong what is currently happening. It’s total jealousy!

    Yes. But in the main I still do not understand. It means there is going to be another 200m a year being pumped into football clubs around Europe.

    Suns out, I have a fresh coffee and am feeling positive about the takeover.
    Sounds like a good morning to me!
