“No one has control or decisive influence over both teams”

But don’t go swapping players with each other you cheeky lil rascals. *wags finger*

What happens after Sep 25 anyway, if the same owner still owns both clubs? Why is it allowed then, if the clubs are in same comp again.

If we want really want Todibo, just transfer him to Lausanne in Switzerland, then transfer him to United.

Time for Jim to sell the Utd back to the glazers and then maybe allow us to sign Todibo in the summer.

This is daft. How can you say no one has “control or decisive influence" over both teams, allowing them to play in the same competition, but then not let them sign players between clubs? It’s completely contradictory.

I reckon there's more to come here.

In an extreme example what's stopping them sacking Todibo and allowing him to join Utd as a free agent?

Technically Jim doesn't own Utd outright yet. He's only a shareholder.

That's Nice.

I really don't get the banning of transfers due to being in the same competition, when said competition hasn't begun yet and no draws have been made. It's not like it would be to give one club a walkover against the other when the chances are they won't meet. It's just stupid.

I'm totally against multi club ownership, for the record. But if you're going to allow such anticompetitive arrangements to exist, then there is no point in adding in illogical, token gesture rules after the horse has bolted

Excellently put.
