This is from Al Jazeera Sports, which is owned by the Qatari Royal Family, the same owners as Ooredoo.

The link below is in Arabic but has quotes from a director in the company which I translated below.

"The goal was to sponsor a big English club with a huge history, our search included Arsenal & Manchester United but the former two have long sponsorship deals and the same applies to Manchester City so Liverpool is the only club available right now."

"We want to sponsor the club in full. We want to sponsor the Stadium (possibly rename it) as well as the club's kits. Our goal is to reach the Asian markets where the Premier League has an enormous fan base."

"We received the tender from the club a few days ago and we are currently in the process of due diligence and we are studying each aspect of the study."

"It is a dual interest, Liverpool needs the money to compete with the European heavyweights and we want to expand our brand to reach new markets via football."

Oh dear !!!!
 
Part of the conclusion from the FA Report.


82.9.


The participants in a game of football do not expect to be bitten by another participant when they come to play football. In this incident, Mr Ivanovic would not, and should not, have been expected to be subject to such a shocking and reprehensible action.


:lol:

Sewer rat.

They came to bite.
 
TBH I am amazed they didnt appeal that, the reasons given for the length of the ban are not nearly as conclusive as they should have been (no mention of his previous history of offending, no mention of the other incidents throughout the game).
