    It’s what the letter requires them to do that is pertinent not who has sent it.

    Indeed. QCs of that level will not want their own reputation tarnished by participating in a futile David vs Goliath battle where David forgot to bring his slingshot.

    The fact he is involved means he believes they have something worth pursuing court.

    If it's as dirty as we all suspect it won't burn.

    Feel free. But I will say “I told you so” when it goes through.

    Takeover or no takeover, it will at least be fun watching PL & 'top 6' cartel slimeballs squirming in court

    He just isn't having it is he <laugh>
    Captain Wrong will not accept that this is a legal case is not just a letter you got from a private car park saying you didn't pay for a ticket so you have been fined and if you just ignore them it will all just go away. If you are found guilty of anti-competition law you could be fined 10% of your worldwide turnover, sued for damages and go to jail for 5 years.
    Do you really think they want that with the current loss of income from broadcasting rights.

    That was 30 years ago, however you're right they didn't burn so I put them back on again. They're still going strong, albeit a tad grubby round the crutch and rusty bullet hole area.

    They cant just call there bluff man. If this goes to court which it will they have to release all evidence they wont want to release that with all their private meetings with the so called big six.
