Personally, I think there’s no way the Premier League wave this through now, whatever assurances 777 give them.

It’s clear to the world that 777 is on the verge of collapse. If the Premier League approved this takeover, and 777 dragged us down with them, it’d be a PR disaster for the league and make a complete mockery of the idea that it might be able to govern itself.

It wouldn't be a PR disaster for them. They're currently going through one now (VAR, FFP, independent regulator) but none of it is sticking and still cracking on as normal.

The PL would approve it if they tick the boxes they've told them to tick. Funnily enough it's those boxes that have seemed to have folded them.

However, if they got the money, they'd be taking over.
 

There are 'red lines' that prospective buyers have to cross, if they fail, they're refused. If they pass them, as 777 did, there doesn't appear to be anything to stop them, unless they break one of those 'red lines.' No idea what those are, but they must be getting damn close.

Again though what is the point of the process if thats the case. Looking at all the info on this lot, not just recently the average Joe can see there is not a chance in hell they are fit and proper, yet the PL are dragging their heels as they havent passed whatever red line they put in. The fact that its got this far shows its not fit for purpose.

how can’t they reject them when they don’t have the money to pass?

Dont think anyone understands Matty. They have been given conditions but have they been given a deadline to meet them? Or can they just plod along for another 6/7 months trying to scrimp and save whilst we get into a spiral.
