Topic: Arsenal: Top of the divers league

It’s ok the luxury tax rules and their govt paying £10b towards the UK will make sure of a fairytale ending……..FOR THEM OF COURSE.

Yeah. Sounds like they own about half of Manchester and they’ve invested in loads of other areas too. Our shite government need the UAE far more than they need us. I just can’t see anyone having the balls to get these charges to stick when they can just threaten to walk away from everything they’ve invested in.

Probably not one for the Arsenal thread, apart them being the ones impacted by them over the last year or two.

Some people are adamant that City will get punished, I highly doubt it, for some of the reasons you mentioned and others. Mostly to do with greed.

They will likely get a fine is my guess.

No point worrying or bothering about the game if we are right and they don’t get punished.

I’d quite happily walk away from top level footy it’s hard to do obviously but it’s something I could do and just enjoy lower league stuff.

If they are found guilty it will not just be a fine, the other clubs would put pressure on the authorities to properly punish them. You are underestimating how angry the other clubs got, if they are ever found guilty, this will develop into a huge story.

We’ll have to wait and see won’t we.

Clubs can be angry all they like but you have no options to appeal anything the only way is for the clubs to all say fuck this let’s start a breakaway league without them and that not happen.

We’ve been denied two clear pens against top 2 at Anfield they aren’t subjective ones either they are both absolutely NAILED ON and then you have the most rigged match in the last 5 years at Spurs we got a sorry and to STFU now.

Look at how much money UAE/Saudi pump into the UK we need that money as a country as it’s billions and you can be sure as shit they will lean on our govt to make this happen.

FIFA are also massively in with Qatar/Saudi too basically they are running the show now.

That's football fans being football fans, rob. We are all so lost in those petty rivalries we have that when something like this can happen, no one sees it. It's like the pricing in football, fans from all clubs should have united against that, but they won't because toxic rivalries seem to be more important. So football will continue to bugger the fans and price them out of the game. It's the same with this, as its only when you get beaten, they you appreciate how shit it all is.

Our own bloody fans can't even unite on that front now, the amount of shit SOS and SK1906 are getting for daring to fight the 2% rise is shocking, selfish bastards who fail to see the bigger picture.

Nah, they'll get a massive fine and enough of a points deduction to look severe but keep them safe.
They might even appeal that for years as well. They can afford to.
In the meantime they'll chip away at the rules with Saudi until they own the game here.
