Curves coming in the union…and in the league itself!

Will they be able to take legal action? This is how the lawyer explains it: “The PM is a group of clubs and if you are a member you agree to comply with the rules and regulations. The first thing that can happen is for the aggrieved club to seek action against the PM if they believe the PM has not imposed a penalty enough. But what the prime minister will say right away is: ‘We did not impose any sanction, it was an independent commission that imposed the sanction. It needs to be explained why you have the right to take action against City as a club against a club action, rather than simply being bound by the decision of the committee you agreed to as a club when you signed the Premier Compliance Act.

The clubs will watch carefully what the Premier does, but as long as this committee is properly convened and independent and not simply an extension of the Premier there will be no problems.

If you say, ‘I finished fifth and I would have qualified for the Champions League’, surely you can say, ‘Well, if I had qualified for the Champions League I would have made more money and could have bought better players. Next time. ao’. It’s exponential In terms of the default. They’ll have to show what impact those offenses, if proven, have on their positions in the league, and then they’ll have to say what that represents in commercial terms. You might talk about bonuses for a league position, but the big change is Champions League qualification.” Says Taylor Heath.
