From their perspective, damned if they do, damned if they don't. You'd imagine there'd be clauses relating to Saudi piracy in their contract with Bein sports.
Could even be a question of whose chips they'd like to piss on the least (or...the most)

I don't doubt that's what they'd want...it all comes down to what Bein Sports have in the contract with the PL that might prevent that from happening. They must have anticipated the Saudis trying to get in on the game at some stage so you'd imagine there are clauses to mitigate against that?

i have a very bad feeling that this WTO report is going to kick us in the nuts

if it does, then the PL officials need to go into hiding because the backlash will be tremendous
Im with Zip (on another thread) - the poison and animosity I will feel against the PL if this isn't passed - will be far greater than anything ever experienced in this country

I have always suspected double dealing and backhanders at the PL but I think if this gets blocked, then I will be done with it for good.
....but I think we are golden.
No problem.
