How did the jumper buying go?

Yeah, good thanks Tony. Got a corker/shit one for just over a tenner. Result. Going to look like a right plum next week at a mates Xmas meal!

SISU are miles ahead of the League in litigation expertise and have a lot more energy and resources to devote to it-the FL accepted what happened because they knew there was no chance of outcompeting SISU in a courtroom. It is just not equipped to deal with anything beyond clubs lacking devious and/or rich owners.

Thats right ,they passed the buck ,and figured If they were going to end up sued, ACL were the favourites In a courtoorm contest,I still wonder in this case and how It subsequently goes If ACL may counter sue for whatever SISU try to take from them.

That's what a lot of people forget about the Football League-it is far from being a wealthy organisation and is barely competent at administrating its own competitions, let alone taking on a very shrewd hedge fund backed by expensive lawyers. This was simply beyond their capabilities and shows that it's no longer fit for purpose in running the League game-it needs a lot more gravitas put behind it to do that.

I don't think they or FA realise just what kind of shenanigans are going to head their way.

The Premier League have long been the most influential body in English football so really it's beyond even the FA's control now.
