Ok lets not talk about terrorism being involved in football please
State owning PSG is ok but lets not involve things that are nothing to do with football!

Qatar spending their money from terror, drugs, weapons and oil. This is what is happening. It's a disgrace that UEFA is doing nothing about PSG... Probably Qatar's money bought their silence, too.

How the Qatar would even produce drugs or weapons? They don't have oil and terrorism cost money, it does not earn it. You managed to be wrong on everything, congratz.


Qatar doesn't produce oil ? Haha, OK.
Qatar is supporting terrorists by reselling weapons to them. So yeah... You are wrong, congratulations.

Even if their money are totally legit and earned by fair means, UEFA should still take action against PSG. They are a team supported by a state... It just so happens that this state is also a terrorist state to make the matters even worse and actually disgusting.



By the logic you are presenting pretty much every major European country and the US is also guilty since they arent stupid enough not to know where they are going. If the world was so worried about Qatar reselling weapons they wouldnt sell them weapons.

There are plenty of complaints to be made against Arab countries but I would fuck off with your pseudo political bullshit.
Please keep the politics out of it. You clearly dont have a clue anyway.

I mean, if we try, we could link every single team in the world to some shady stuff

just off the top of my head, Real Madrid is sponsored by Adidas, which has been linked to child labour many many times

see ? is pretty easy

Some rumors say Van Djik has boarded a plane heading to Liverpool. The way Liverpool are suddenly spending seems a bit curious too, but who knows...

Still doubt will make them a title contenders, but who knows...

at some point they have to start spending if they want to win the league again.

Who cares about Qatar ? I don't really care about politics. What I'm saying is that PSG is backed by a state, which is against the rules of UEFA. They are competing with unfair advantage and should be banned from all competitions under UEFA, until they can proove the source of their money.
Obviously that will not happen, because UEFA is a complete joke.

It is ofcourse extremely disconcerting the way things are and I am sure if there was a will to investigate things could and should happen to prevent this kind of stuff. The stakes unfortunately are of a magnitude now where little can be done about it without risking a backlash and fallout that may well even cripple the system thats sorta developed now.

Cut the sentence at "Qatar is spending" and my point is made. You and one other guy decided to focus on the rest which is irrelevant to this thread, so I'm not going to discuss it (yeah I answered one time which was a mistake...).

You can ban with "Prove to us where your money comes from" attitude. If a person can go to jail by failing to provide evidence for a legitimate source of income, why can't UEFA ban PSG for the same ? All of a sudden they spent 200+ mils for one transfer and are signing a contract to pay another 180 next year. According Deloite PSG had 520 mil euro revenue for the last year...
So maybe someone at UEFA should figure out that something doesn't add up. Well, if they were not corrupted trash that is.

If Uefa gave a shit they would have stepped in when Roman founded Chelsea in 2003. They don't and with the way they weakened FFP after it became clear that they would have to actually ban some big teams (PSG, Man City) speaks volumes for what will happen about the Neymar transfer, nothing.

You are misunderstanding, I am not saying that they should be out scott free if they fail to provide sufficient evidence. I am saying that you cant ban first and then ask for the evidence.

If the will to do so was there, there would be a proper procedure to stop it. I dont understand why people are crying about this now when financial instruments have been used to do this for 10 years now.

From a moral point of view whats the difference between Perez using his personal wealth + Show Spoiler +
( take loans for club use his companies assets as collateral, so basically just not as overtly as say our favourite Roman, and to be fair he also grew the brand insanely well, then again so did Chelsea )
and Qatari's through a wealth fund which is basically just their excess cash, doing the same thing

And believe it or not they dont make their money from " terror, drugs, weapons and oil" which it seems you are happy to walk back.

Now you have an issue because they just started doing it better with more money?

This was always going to happen and something should have been done about this way before it got to this point.

So i find it all a bit fresh to get all uppity and lose your shit now. All big clubs have contributed to this problem and governing authorities have been silent on it because they benefit aswell.

The idea that "OMG WTF THEY ARE A COUNTRY THAT IS NOT ALLOWED" is absolute bollocks. Sugar daddying was bad period and it should have been nipped in the bud. Good luck handling the monster now.

Finally, lets assume that they do ask them to "prove where there money comes from." I am afraid many clubs with Europe based owners if audited properly (you know your Romans and Perez's) will find themselves in some pretty hot water. Probably more so than the Qatari's because their money is probably alot cleaner. They have too many resources and too little to actually have to spend it on to even bother with shady shit. (not that they probably dont, each Prince has massive kitty's he can do whatever the fuck he wants with.)

The stakes are way beyond what normal people like us can imagine now. We the regular football fan are just as complicit for tacitly approving it with our silence. Personally I dont care enough about it make a fuss and my or anyone elses personal disapproval without some sort of mass collective action is pretty meaningless.

and Qatari's through a wealth fund which is basically just their excess cash, doing the same thing

And believe it or not they dont make their money from " terror, drugs, weapons and oil" which it seems you are happy to walk back.

Now you have an issue because they just started doing it better with more money?

This was always going to happen and something should have been done about this way before it got to this point.

So i find it all a bit fresh to get all uppity and lose your shit now. All big clubs have contributed to this problem and governing authorities have been silent on it because they benefit aswell.

The idea that "OMG WTF THEY ARE A COUNTRY THAT IS NOT ALLOWED" is absolute bollocks. Sugar daddying was bad period and it should have been nipped in the bud. Good luck handling the monster now.

Finally, lets assume that they do ask them to "prove where there money comes from." I am afraid many clubs with Europe based owners if audited properly (you know your Romans and Perez's) will find themselves in some pretty hot water. Probably more so than the Qatari's because their money is probably alot cleaner. They have too many resources and too little to actually have to spend it on to even bother with shady shit. (not that they probably dont, each Prince has massive kitty's he can do whatever the fuck he wants with.)

The stakes are way beyond what normal people like us can imagine now. We the regular football fan are just as complicit.


I'm not talking about any financial instruments at all. Financial schemes are completely different problem.
I'm talking about "involvment of governemnt in the sport".
Last year the EC found Barcelona, Real Madrid and other teams from Spain guilty of that, because the state gave them favorable tax rates...
Several years ago, when CSKA and Lokomotiv Sofia went broke, the state couldn't save them(by loans or whatever, and we are talking about a couple of millions), because "UEFA forbids that". The state can't fund the Bulgarian football union, because "UEFA forbids that". The state can't fund the construction or renovation of club stadiums, because "UEFA forbids that".
Now the governement of Qatar is basically pumping money into PSG and nobody is even saying a thing. Cool. And fuck UEFA.

So we have Neymar, Mbappe, Dembele currently, and with Coutinho most likely going to Barca we have the transfer record being smashed 4 times in a single window, making Pogba look like chump change. What the fuck is happening.

Qatar spending their money from terror, drugs, weapons and oil. This is what is happening. It's a disgrace that UEFA is doing nothing about PSG... Probably Qatar's money bought their silence, too.

How the Qatar would even produce drugs or weapons? They don't have oil and terrorism cost money, it does not earn it. You managed to be wrong on everything, congratz.


Qatar doesn't produce oil ? Haha, OK.
Qatar is supporting terrorists by reselling weapons to them. So yeah... You are wrong, congratulations.

Even if their money are totally legit and earned by fair means, UEFA should still take action against PSG. They are a team supported by a state... It just so happens that this state is also a terrorist state to make the matters even worse and actually disgusting.



By the logic you are presenting pretty much every major European country and the US is also guilty since they arent stupid enough not to know where they are going. If the world was so worried about Qatar reselling weapons they wouldnt sell them weapons.

There are plenty of complaints to be made against Arab countries but I would fuck off with your pseudo political bullshit.
Please keep the politics out of it. You clearly dont have a clue anyway.


Who cares about Qatar ? I don't really care about politics. What I'm saying is that PSG is backed by a state, which is against the rules of UEFA. They are competing with unfair advantage and should be banned from all competitions under UEFA, until they can proove the source of their money.
Obviously that will not happen, because UEFA is a complete joke.


And thats fine, there we agree. Partly anyway.

But thats not all you said originally additionally

Additionally you cant really ban with a guilty until proven innocent line of thinking. It is ofcourse extremely disconcerting the way things are and I am sure if there was a will to investigate things could and should happen to prevent this kind of stuff. The stakes unfortunately are of a magnitude now where little can be done about it without risking a backlash and fallout that may well even cripple the system thats sorta developed now. (THANKS ROMAN !)


Cut the sentence at "Qatar is spending" and my point is made. You and one other guy decided to focus on the rest which is irrelevant to this thread, so I'm not going to discuss it (yeah I answered one time which was a mistake...).

You can ban with "Prove to us where your money comes from" attitude. If a person can go to jail by failing to provide evidence for a legitimate source of income, why can't UEFA ban PSG for the same ? All of a sudden they spent 200+ mils for one transfer and are signing a contract to pay another 180 next year. According Deloite PSG had 520 mil euro revenue for the last year...
So maybe someone at UEFA should figure out that something doesn't add up. Well, if they were not corrupted trash that is.


You are misunderstanding, I am not saying that they should be out scott free if they fail to provide sufficient evidence. I am saying that you cant ban first and then ask for the evidence.

If the will to do so was there, there would be a proper procedure to stop it. I dont understand why people are crying about this now when financial instruments have been used to do this for 10 years now.

Qatar Sports Investment is not the Government of Qatar. Its a closed shared holding company, privately held.

And regardless of that
