Vital Champions League
Mauriss shouldn't be anywhere near a football club . If the Premier League have concerns over PIF , how about Mauriss being under investigation by the FBI? Also the deal with PIF is agreed, there is no deal in place with any other companies or persons. If that goes through any other supposed "bids" don't mean a thing.
It could be that this is an attempt by Ashley to pressurize the advancement of the PIF deal. Though to me it's a strange move as it doesn't affect the Premier League so unless there's some prevarication on the PIF side (and why would there be as they want this done) any "pressure" is meaningless and would you want to piss off those about deliver you a boatload of cash. This is of course Ashley so applying logic and reason can often be a waste of time.
Given what they done to that reporter (allegedly), if I were Ashley I’d be thinking long and hard about how not to piss them off.
