    They'll have been looking for proof the minute it was confirmed. Honkin from the off.

    Well, I hope Boris is questioned over this. After all, he asked the FA to reconsider.

    No doubt they'll get round it by saying that Staveley effectively runs the club even though they have the majority shareholding

    No, you let them keep the club, just revoke their license to play in the PL.

    Good that it’s in the press but nowt will happen, premier league doesn’t have the balls.

    They will probably request a change in chairman knowing fine well he will still control things in the background

    She's been diluting her shareholding, it was picked up a few weeks ago but not in the mainstream media. She still has the court case with Ashley about the money she borrowed from him to buy her stake. Lose that and he gets her shares back. So, most likely, she's been quietly reducing her holding so she can pay him if she loses. Without her shares she'd just be a club employee, but imagine how it would be if Ashley got a stake back on the board, seems as there's no love lost between them now? If that got broadcast as well it would leave them in a real mess.

    It's why the EPL don't want an independent football regulator.

    However, they may actually act this time to try and show that the EPL doesn't need an independent regulator and can handle things themselves. Right now it's a complete mess.

    It's easy! They'll just pop along to the courts.

    You know, the courts that Ashley and Saudi Arabia threatened them with to force the kidnapping? The same courts that the EPL just popped along to and made Saudi Arabia decist their piracy operation against Bien Sports?

    All Richard Masters is good for is hanging onto his fantastically well paid job for as long as he can

    the ONLY thing that should happen is for ALL major sports to act together to stop all unfair investment and sportswashing.

    obviously they will not do this as greed is always the final decider, a small fuss will be kicked up then it will all be swept under the carpet as usual.

    Tyne Tees just trailered it for their news bulletin ...

    ...it's starting to get funny now <laugh>

    I wonder who'll be the first Mag to say 'storm in a teacup' or 'slap on the wrist'.

    Look North just said it was a "legally binding" promise that the PIF consortium was not part of the Saudi State. :emoticon-0102-bigsm
