The only owners it disqualifies are those subject to UK sanctions and if they were subject to UK sanctions then how did they buy the club in the first place and why weren't their shares in the club seized as part of sanctions enforcement?

This is just the government's way of inserting themselves into making some of the money that previously was only going to the football governing bodies. Politicians literally wrote the book on corruption, I'd be surprised if anything meaningfully changed

Shit it’s NJ stuff - worst ones where when my relative wasn’t there due to a pay to play thing with a bunch of the Dems in NJ - think they ended up doing about 1 mil into campaign donations. Everyone on their side was implicated but I think most of the guys receiving (politicians) still run the state.

I’m honestly surprised I didn’t get downvoted for that previous comment. Found this on the news tab and think anytime you bring up something Woodie Johnson or Avenatti based you just get buried on here.
