Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

Prob not the right thread but can't be bothered to start a new one: Man City start legal action against PL spending rules in particular the rules around sponsorship money. Clearly a tactic to try and discredit charges and take PL legal team focus away from the case against them. Lovely club. This h...

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

Watford are crowd funding for investors.
The promotional material is full of misleading statements, such as they are the fastest growing club in Europe.

Someone is going to get sued....

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Section 75 is one of the nice consumer friendly protections which, if loans were invented today, would never in a million years be passed into law Possibly, possibly not.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

If a product didn't turn up, that would come under a chargeback claim. You can dispute payments made in the previous 120 days (some times longer) and is designed for items not turning up or being faulty; although this link suggests services (like flights or concerts) have a 540 day window (starting...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Buying anything worth more than £100 on debit card is stupid. If it never turns up, or the company goes bust, a credit card company just gives you the money back no questions asked. Martin Lewis' very existence clearly still passing millions by. People are stupid. I know an accountant who bought a ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I'm sure lots of people are holding off in case it all goes tits up, I'm not that confident the Royals will be lining up in August if Dai is still in charge and they would say that anyway wouldn't they? I mean the marketing dept wouldn't send out a reminder to get your ST caveated by administration...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I've had a reminder to renew my season ticket, probably to help pay the wage bill. Presumably there's a few million pounds from the ST sales that could fall on either side of the deal, is Dai stalling until the deadline? I was mildly intrigued by the wording on the email, particularly "one thi...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Not sure where to put this but kiss bye bye to the Football Regulator for quite a while, now that the election has been called.

The Bill to bring it in gets scrapped. Would have to start again from scratch post election, competing with every other priority of new government.

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

WTF did we agree to something that wasn't allowed. Clowns the lot of them. If it makes you feel any better, the same redacted documents revealed that we do in fact have a 10% sell-on for transfer profit in regards to Olise. Havent we heard form official sources, i.e. Howe or some other, such as Sel...

Re: Champions League, Europa League & Europa Conference League 23/24

Bayern didnt lose that because Tuchel took off Kane. They lost because Neuer lost concentration and spilled the ball. If he scoops that like normal, another long punt up front and another chance for defence to be reset. The shot from Madrid that led to the 1st goal was a sign of a team resorting to...

Re: Ovie Ejaria

I'd imagine he's training with the u21s who are still in action in the play-offs. Undeniable ability on the ball, but a total enigma and I doubt he's under serious consideration. Having said that, Ruben may have seen something in him and might want to offer him something without the baggage of prev...

Re: VAR

Fresh from watching two pulsating Champions League semi finals were VAR wasn't used once, despite numerous goals, and penalties awarded...... We move on to Chelsea vs Spurs, where Chelsea score a goal, that is so obviously not offside, the VAR just sits there for a while, as we all stare at a screen...

Pundits trying to be polite and professional about teams who are as good as relegated due to GD, by pretending they are almost down but have an outside chance of staying up.
