AND... NEWWWWWWWWWWW KWABOTY!

LOL

Wouldn’t be a problem if Lyon were good enough to qualify for the CL
in other words…KWAB

>>149726175
still tony

>>149726144 (OP)
it's over for nonce palace

KWAB

KWAB

Why this is nonsensical

John Textor owns all of Lyon, but of Palace;
>43% shares
>25% of boardroom
>No decisive influence (explicit in paperwork)

Even deemed decisive influence in both, you can move money into "blind trust"
>Every year the deadline to apply for this for the following season was 1st July (after season ends)
>Except this year, for some reason, where its in March, before anyone knows for what they''ll qualify for

Even if you enforce this, for the competition Palace have been removed from
>John Textor no longer owns ANY of Palace so can't enforce anything

Even if you consider ALL of the above
>UEFA consider 7th in Ligue 1 to be over FA Cup winners to dictate priority

complete bureaucratic nonsense

HLTCO in the mud hahahahahah

>>149726144 (OP)
>Lyon relegated
>Lyon appeals relegation and wins
>Palace owned by same people
>Gets relegated because Lyon not relegated
Feels like a sitcom episode where a guy has two dates at the same time

>>149726175
Still Jota.

>>149726401
I completely agree with you, but the rules were obvious well in advance and so the blame lies with Mr Textor

This is why football is a joke. Arbitrary rules that get waived whenever a rich team is involved.

>>149726448
moving the deadline for the first time to before the season even finished makes no sense
>well in advance
above sent in an email to info@cpfc.co.uk in february

>CP demoted
was the owner on the Epstein client list

how does it make any fucking sense? textor wont own palace next season, so how can it break ANY rules?

So basically, as owners you're only allowed multiple teams in Europe if you have lawyers good enough that can help you skirt the rules.

BASED

uhmm how is this possible? stinky yellow-teethed inbred island monkeys told me foreign ownership of their clubs is actually a good thing???

Bongs have better teeth than Germans, btw. While we were joint 2nd in terms of health, we pipped you due to 'negative dental lifestyle' by consuming less alcohol than you. Sorry sweetie :)

CP are appealing via CAS so this is going to finna go on.

What an absolute clown show football has become due to this multi-club-ownership nonsense and its derivatives

spineless beady-eyed subservient anglo freaks hitting new lows. shameless!

>NOOO don't consume alcohol this is haram according to Shariah law imposed on us by our pakistani mayor

>>149727378
I always find it funny when Germans bring up Shariah Law or Muslims. It's like you're blind. Then again, you're a country that allowed a 30 year child rape experiment so, you're very subservient to your masters that you let the government take kids and rape them 'for science' lmao.

European Cuplets seething

Why is a french club owned by an american instead of a french guy?
Why is an english club owned by an american instead of an english guy?
Are europoors so broke that americans are buying up their teams? Grim

>>149727526
probs want to be a part of a sport people watch

>>149727472
>you're a country that allowed a 30 year child rape experiment so
>looked this up
>it's true
What the fuck Germany?

>>149727631
The reason the wall was up was not to keep the Easterners in, but the Westerners out

>>149727526
English and French people don't tend to invest in things that lose 10s of millions every year

>t. ""RasenBallSport"" customer

>>149726962
Your best player has just left for England. Germany can ignore the globalisation of football if it wants, but you will stay poor and irrelevant while people all over the world watch the PL every weekend

>>149726962
Taking a break from shovelling shit down your throat you dumb barbarian?

>>149726962
The Britcord didn't like this one...

>>149726144 (OP)
I thought he had sold it

>>149728842
not yet

Any reason why the demoted team is Palace and not Lyon?

>>149729043
apparently 6th in Ligue 1 is better than winning the FA Cup
but its probably just because uefa love lyon and dont care about palace

>palace cruise around and claim the conference trophy
>the tree gets dicked in evropa and suffers in the league
this is a good thing

>>149726962
>all those seething replies
glad you found your form again abehans

>>149726489
The solution would be to enforce and make stricter rules, not abolish them for everyone. The modern football experiment has clearly failed.

The Vauxhall Conference? Fuckin Hell, bit harsh innit

>>149729110
not really

Unironic KWABOTY

It's somehow funny to me that the punishment for this horrible crime is not "you are banned from European football for 6 years", it's "you have to play in the slightly shittier tier of European football".

>>149726144 (OP)
I don't get it, why does Red Bull or the City group get around this? Didn't Girona and Man City both play UCL last season? Salzburg and Leipzig?

>>149737400
uefa corruption

>>149737400
bribery

>>149737400
their brown envelopes were fatter

>>149737400
There’s a deadline to put your shares into a blind trust or sell them and they missed it by months. The reason they missed it is because they didn’t expect to win the FA cup but those are the rules.

>>149733252
I swear when I first heard of Palace getting banned from Europa League that they would actually have been restricted from all of Europe and that Brighton would be in the Conference League instead. Guess this is a compromise of sorts.

good
fuck multiple ownerships no matter the amount of shares

>>149740234
This but let all the other multiownership groups off

*blocks your path*

>>149726144 (OP)
Why weren't Salzburg and Leipzig last season?

>>149740842
Is Ange destined for the Forest job? Since hes Greek.

>>149726144 (OP)
kwab

>>149747288
They have different owners

>>149740370
let's not and let this be the start of a break up of that ownership model

>>149726144 (OP)
>Textor'd
At least, Lyon will get rid of this retard

>>149726144 (OP)
I don't get it, INEOS were able to handwave this by just saying they pinkie promised not to back Nice in the Europa.

>>149749489
ok but Textor didn't pinkie promise anything

and they've gotten rid of textor now, before the competition even starts, so how does the punishment make any sense?

>>149740183
the spirit of the rule is to prevent any conflict of interest/gamesmanship in matches that could be influenced by the owner, right?
Assuming that Textor/Parish don't own any teams in conference, then it should be fine

>>149758063
deadline was moved to March for some unknown reason this season

>>149726962
t. rasenballposter

>>149760380
but deadline for what? what is it enforcing or checking for? the guy wont even be around
none of it makes any sense
