    Everyone needs a whipping boy. Even better if you can get a big whipping boy. We are that boy.

    I still think PIF could call the PL bluff now. They do what the PL say and I stage SA as a director. Stupid I know. But do it, make it public that it was done to satisfy the PL criteria and then wait for approval.

    If it doesn’t come then they can sue the arse off the PL.

    Agree, its pretty simple:

    1. Has the PL received opposition to the takeover from any of the other 19 member clubs
    2. Why did the PL offer arbitration (which is an appeals process) before a decision was made
    3. Can you provide a timeline of events from start to finish and is the deal completely dead in the water or can it pick up where it was left if the consortium return to the table
    3. Is it true that the PL held talks which involved the takeover with BeIN during the process
    4. If the UK are happy to do trade and arms deals with Saudia Arabia why has so much scrutiny been placed on this takeover
    5. Do you agree that the PL could be more transparent about this process in the future without breaking any confidentiality terms of any NDA's

    I reckon it could get quite heated like.

    Exactly right... A big away day for the big clubs to look good and a big away following to create a good atmosphere on TV on Monday nights..

    They need to to going in armed with documents/evidence etc from the consortium.. Then laying traps before presenting the documents on the live feed.

    You know you've said this, so then explain this to me stuff.... Anticipate their answers and bring out another trap...

    Not too OTT you've gotta do it subtlety to open then up.



    They don't have the brains

    Most of our live games are against the top six. Usually away.

    Oh and did anyone notice... rather than make a comment when the PL letter dropped yesterday.... Wraith spammed all of social media with ads for this books, events, talk ins....

    So they will meet mugs from NUST, I’ll bet there’s no scheduled interview with George Caulkin

    Of course... They found their questions so easy to answer and know they're so thick they'll offer nothing difficult to deal with. If it's not that lot it's the idiot Steve wraith..

    They need to go to AS and get the consortium’s lawyers to list the questions to put to Musters.

    For me off the top of my head.

    1. How can the KSA be a director when that does not comply with English Law.
    2. What were the assurances given by the SA Court and why were these deemed unacceptable.
    3. Why was no decision to refuse made when consortium not willing to name KSA as director.
    4. Why was arbitration proposed instead of the PL making a decision
    5. What point or points exactly was the arbitration intended to determine
    6. Did a meeting or discussion with Bein occur where takeover was discussed. If so, why?
    7. Did any meetings or discussions occur with other PL clubs where takeover was discussed. If so, why and with who
    8. If any discussions or meetings occurred under 6 and 7 what was discussed.

    Not expecting Musters would answer these or wouldn’t claim confidentiality but for me need to be asked. For 6 and 7 and 8 confidentially re the takeover couldn’t apply as not supposed to be part of the test. He could also lie but that would then depend upon what the consortium could prove separately. It would partly be an exercise of pinning down the PL position ready for Court but that is also why I don’t think Musters will actually say anything specific as opposed to general and non commital

    Everybody is debunking their bullshit, it’s infuriating. Yet on Weds we’ll get absolutely no clarity whatsoever.

    My only question would be why none of this has been put to them by the consortium. It’s so weird.

    Some probably have but then the Pl have simply replied saying the replies were needed to complete the test.

    Also

    If the KSA was named as a director would the PL then be able to make a decision and what would it be.
