Takeover (Covid-19/20)

Pigging.

 

I’m going to make a wild guess here but possibly the person in the photograph.

Could have just taken out the asterisk's to make it realistic.

 

Take it you haven't figured this thread out then....

 

I see the Man City emails have been published. Long story short, they have been effectively state funded by UAE.

Can't imagine why the PL wanted that **** kept quiet. What an unholy ****ing mess football is in.

 

Perhaps why they have been so funny about the Saudis?

 

It's happening

 

Where have you seen them?

 

They're online, in the Daily Mail and other places.

What do the leaked emails say?
A senior executive within the sports sponsorship team at Etihad Airways, City's main sponsor, composed an email to a contact in the partnerships department at City on April 12, 2011, appearing to query the £12m ($16.5m) shirt sponsorship deal City had with Etihad.

The email opened with: "Dear (redacted), there seems to be some confusion about an outstanding balance of the sponsorship fee for the 2010-11 season."

It goes on to explain that Etihad were only due to pay £4m, with the UAE's Executive Affairs Authority (EAA) due to pay the club the remaining £8m ($11m) of the contract, clearly not allowed under Premier League rules.

How does this break the rules?
Premier League clubs are not allowed to receive sponsorship from third parties that are closely associated with the owners of the club or related in any way.

City have therefore potentially benefited from artificially inflated sponsorship deals that dwarf those of their rivals, allowing them to gain an advantage on the field.

This is in direct contradiction to the Premier League's fair play rules and, even though the Premier League has also not commented on the ongoing legal battle with its reigning champions, the ramifications would be severe for City, with relegation from the league the ultimate punishment.

 

The premier league is a mess

 

Everything is. UEFA, FIFA both utter shambles, corrupt to the core.

Football is utterly ****ed for me, it's a ticking time bomb before it goes nuclear (hopefully).

 

The world is a mess to be fair.

 

PIF plane flying to London again

 

I love these ones

 

Getting ready for shooting season

 

The irony is... we all knew it was going on.... the PL more than likely knew it was going on......
Flipping it the other way... if I were the PL I'd now be more than confident that the Saudi's wouldn't get up to those tricks now they have been exposed.....
The irony is... with this revelation... there may be a spare place in the 'big 6' up for grabs at some point.

The PL are indeed ****ed.

One whiff of them being ITK on this or the ESL breakaway and the government will step in.

I'd not be upset if tomorrow it was disbanded and a new, independently regulated organisation rose up to replace it.
