🧵 The Crystal Palace sage is the tip of the iceberg. By my count, 16 Premier League clubs are part of some sort of multi-club network Spurs, Wolves, Burnley, Fulham - if you don't see your club's name, your team has ties to another somewhere else in the world Here are all 16🔽

Reading Chelsea news, am reminded what Premier League owner once told me about Roman “Everyone says Chelsea are amazing in the transfer market. Well, I could be amazing if I just paid agents what they asked me” Suspect the sense of betrayal at slap on wrist will be off scale

🚨 Chelsea co-owner Jose Feliciano says £355m loss is "sustainable" - and BlueCo want to win Premier League "soon." But with ~£5bn pledged, UEFA restrictions and high-risk player strategy, how do #CFC owners make the numbers add up? For @CFCChronicle ⬇️ thechelseachronicle.com/news/chelsea-o…

Might ostensibly sound like dull industry news, but it could change the way fans consume the Premier League. Sale of TV rights (worth £1.7bn p/a & distributed among clubs) is easy and relatively risk-free atm. But long-term, big clubs want D2C as TV cash plateaus and piracy rises

Masters also confirms Premier League will launch first direct-to-consumer platform in Singapore market. Trial run for 'Premflix' (not PL's official name), which some believe is the next big financial quantum leap.

A bit more from Masters when asked by @ben_rumsby about how PL can avoid such lengthy processes in future: "I simply can't [comment on City case]. But any regulator wants its judicial system to be efficient and seen to work swiftly. That's about as far as I'm prepared to go."

PL CEO Richard Masters' (very predictable) response when asked at @FinancialTimes Business of Football Summit about Man City charges: "We're still awaiting a decision. As you know, I can't talk about it; I can't talk about the timing of it. So, there's nothing more I can add."

We are now seeing the inevitable next phase of the uk national discussion of Ratcliffe, with people pretending he is being told he can’t have an opinion. What is irrefutably objectionable is he is literally making up numbers to distort his case.

Update from Companies House: West Ham terminated David Sullivan as a director about 15 mins ago… Only to re-appoint him (with amended middle names) moments later. Sorry #whufc fans. Looks like someone dropped the ball on the admin. Similar change of details for Jiri Svarc.

Reported exclusively that Ipswich Town were exploring a stake sale at ∼£350m valuation back in July. That has now come to pass. ORG have sold part of stake they manage on behalf of PSPRS to a new majority shareholder group made up of existing investors eflanalysis.com/news/ipswich-t…

📰 Ipswich Town Football Club can today announce changes to its ownership structure. The majority shareholder is to become Portman Holdings LLC, following a transfer of shares from ORG Portfolio Management, who remain a key stakeholder. ⤵️

🚨 Everton's move to the Hill Dickinson and the return of big hitters Leeds & Sunderland means the PL is set to hit £1bn in annual matchday income for the first time ever. 🎫 You can see why @WeAreTheFSA is asking for a two-year freeze on ticket prices. everton.news/evertons-hill-…
