Seems to me that the PL have made a lot of these problems for themselves by not having an appropriate initial due diligence process on prospective owners and being slow to act when it was obvious to everyone else there was potentially something amiss. They need to take lessons from this.

I think the stuff around the white paper is probably a distraction. This is the PL showing the Government they have teeth and dont need a regulator. But it doesnt mean the same charges wouldnt probably apply.

They've waited 5 years to bare their teeth? I think you are being somewhat kind to both parties.

That's how they get around it !

We all know what it is but I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if they decided this was allowed as long as he actually did the 4 days coaching...

Certainly fails the market rate sniff test, what with them paying more for four days that the market (Man City job) pay for a year.

THey could point to B Johnson/Blair, even May getting £250-300k for an after dinner speech as evidance that its the going rate......... hahahaha

I live in hope that details like this will trigger an HMRC investigation into tax evasion. Once they get involved the PL will have to grow a backbone and deal with the doping otherwise every clubs finances & the PL’s own will be under scrutiny.

City's owners. if it really were City then it would have gone through the books, and wouldn't be a problem

This was actually part of my thinking, Johnson and Co are earning much more from giving a short speech than they earn from their day job...

[Kenneth]

Their day job pay isn’t derived from a free market rate, it’s determined by parliament. And they’re being paid because of their status, not for doing their regular line of work. And they’re ex world leaders, not a guy who managed inter Milan.

A new low for football.

The state of this cunt

2-0 and you dive for a pen against your boyhood club.

Should probably be added to the list of VAR fails for the weekend.
