    If only the six were sent letters then that is a potential can of worms. It suggests that the commercial rights of the big 6 are all that matter. That is an interesting starting point in establishing a cartel...

    The PIF was fundamentally changed in 2016, when MBS took control of it and changed who it reported to.
    If you’re interested in it’s political significance, have a read of this;

    Seem to vaguely remember that the letter was sent to all PL clubs.

    The right side of the fence. Good enough.

    It does make an interesting read. It's a good research paper if somewhat anti Saudi. It will be interesting what Lords Dyson and Neuberger say in arbitration. Michael Beloff QC has already given an opinion in relation to KSA in relation to company law, albeit based on evidence supplied by the PL.

    Exactly as I said.

    There was some weird stuff people were coming out with as of they'd won a war.. The big 6 still pull all the strings.. There's not been any power shift.. I tried telling people but they would listen.

    You had Steve hastey who's a nice chap btw coming out like people were going tu get jailed and relegated etc... People read what these space cadets say and it snowballs.

    What's required is a rule brought in to stop it resurfacing which it's going to

    Automatic expulsion and no route of appeal.

    Hey lads. What we will do is fine you £20m each. Which will look like we have punished you.

    We will use that money to pay out on Mikes CAT claim out of court which he will accept.

    And we will still block the takeover. Deal?

    Points deduction and massive fines. Each club should start next season on -30 points.

    The Premier league were in on it, so they'll do nothing and overtime the 6 clubs are going to invite fans on board as they have done and they're going to brainwash them into liking the idea... Once they've got sections vocally supporting the idea they'll go ahead.
