    UEFA ownership rules

    Talking with mates last night and nobody could work out what would happen if two, certain teams who play in red, under the same owner, qualify for the same, European competition?

    Will there be some kind of seniority by way of qualification which would allow for one of them to be dropped in to a lesser competition?

    Hopefully it will be rendered moot after the redbacks lose their last fif**** games.........................

    When you were talking to your mates, were you all sat at the table?

    Yes, a pool table.

    They’ll get round it by changing owners names etc.

    Man City & Girona both in CL this season owned by Abu Dhabi.

    Man Utd & Nice in Europe and Nice are owned by Ratcliffe but probably get round it by saying Glazers in charge of Utd.

    If you grease the palms of UEFA/FIFA nothing is off the table as we are now seeing with world cups staged in Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

    You’re last point is the best one let’s hope this doesn’t become a “problem” !

    The consensus amongst us was that the fat one would probably pay some backhanders.
