[Football] If Palace can't play in the Europa League

[schmunk]

I think that this is the main problem for Palace.

Several clubs have now had to change their structures to abide by EUFAs rules, including our own Tony Bloom. Even if EUFA decide that Palace will be allowed to compete in the Europa League, I can see a lot of very disgruntled multi club owners who have previously abided by the rules, and these gentlemen are aren’t likely to take EUFA backtracking for Palace lying down.

Palace's argument will be that their ownership structure does not FLAUNT the rules, thus they did/do not need to make any adjustments.

By my reading of the UFEA document, sadly they're probably correct.

I must read that EAFU rules.

I think becuase Textor has 25% ‘voting’ control, they might get away with it. But I’m unsure if that means anything against his actual ownership control.

On Sky Sports News they are showing the English clubs playing in Europe on a graphic but which club is missing from the list ?

 

[Pavilionaire]

Peking was actually named after a Chinese takeaway in Norwood in 2306 BC.

Going back earlier, there are many references to their squad in the Old Testament, including The Books of Joel, Nathaniel, Daniel, Ismail, going right back to Adam and Eze.

And I believe the architect Hiram Abiff based his designs for the great Temple of Solomon on The Holmesdale End at Selhurst.

Do as I say, not as I do??

Mea culp

2p in the £ ?

offers anyone ?

Would that be fair though? Other clubs sorted their affairs out before the deadline, JUST IN CASE. They didn't, so should they be allowed to do a retrospective change?

Yep. Too late.

Well that’s one way of getting out, he’s been trying for ages hasn’t he? It’s like a release clause for him

If only Parish had thought it through before the end of March

Really hope UEFA told him “Too late cock”

2p in the £ ?

St John’s Ambulance got 3p, it’s only fair

 

[US Seagull]

2p in the £ ?

Overpriced

The more uncertainty continues the better

I’ll give him £1.47 for them. That’s all they’re worth.

Even if Palace do get into Europe, it’s now a tainted campaign blighted by their cheating and desperation. In many ways, the perfect accompaniment to their cheating FA Cup win.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Could Tony Bloom put in an offer?

 

[pay no mind]

Time for a quick cheeky bid from Tony? Complex negotiations, pull out at the last moment because he can't own Palace if we're taking their place in Europe...

edit: forget that last part as the higher league position rule would come into effect.

If this is true, which I doubt, it’s going to take a lot longer than a couple of months to sell his shares. Unless, one of the other 4 Chairmen of the Apocalypse want to by them.


I’ll give him 10 grand, cash for all his Palace shares.
