He failed the 'fit and proper' test, appealed and then miraculously won his appeal and the takeover! It's a bit of a joke. I remember a few years ago Notts County nearly went bankrupt after a season because the bent owners decided to bring in Sven Goran Eriksson and pay Sol Campbell £70,000 a week when they were a League 2 club! County went £5m in the red and the owners just transferred the debt from themselves to the club and walked away whilst the FA did fuck all! Don't even get me started on Portsmouth
The FA absolutely love big money in the Premiership. They will happily see clubs hit the brink for the sake of how much dosh is floating about. They want the Prem to be the best league in the world and they assume that more money=better clubs. UEFA is really clamping down to it now though because our league is out of control. Sky high ticket prices because of the wages and clubs getting deeper into trouble because of the rising running costs yet other leagues in Europe are run flawlessly. The FA couldn't give a fuck about England's future and young talent because with money available; clubs can just poach some foreigner with their Arab money.
I hope UEFA stand strong and repercussions are met because the FA are a bunch of money grabbing wankers. Chelsea may have started flashing the cash before the rules came into fruition but they breached them on countless occasions in recent years but the FA won't say anything because they don't want to upset the Abramovic apple cart.
