they realsied they were going to get strung along by the prem with Qatar pulling the strings, so their plan was to cause enough uproar to get the premier league to come out and say the exact reasons why it was declined as they have already satisfied their concerns over human rights, piracy etc. Then once the prem had given exact deatails, they would move to correct that particular issue and force through the sale in the public eye so the prem couldnt stall anymore
