    Definitly misread this as “scraped the missus off the roof” at first. Was wondering what on Earth you were confessing to.

    I reckon they're waiting on the pubs reopening before announcing the takeover and Mbappe at the same time

    I’m happy that the report is as I expected. If not a tad less negative than I was expecting.

    There is piracy going on all over the world. The Saudi government have been naughty in that they should have done more to stop it. But it wasn’t them doing it. So how should it affect our takeover.

    I can’t honestly see any legal reason or connection that would mean the PL could turn around and say no.

    Did the WTO stop PIF buying shares in DiSNEY because I bet you can view Disney content on these box sets.

    It’s akin to saying that if MM is found on Portuguese soil then any future investments by anyone based in Portugal should be stopped because the government didn’t do more to stop it or find out who did it.

    It is clear to me that the PL are just dragging their heals because BEIN are not happy. That’s what it boils down to.

    What a load of crap.

    I’ve said it before and I will say it again. The entities involved in the piracy are directly responsible. Not the Saudi government for not stopping it.

    However (disclaimer) if the people who are connected to beoutq or the transmission companies are linked to PIF (which I don’t think they are) then THAT is an issue.

    I just think it’s the PL not wanting to upset the balance and Bein.
