Do we need him now we've got Moshiri that's the big question?

Do you not think that these very powerful individuals have had very expensive and competant lawyers look into this for them ?

I certainly hope so!

It would be so Everton to receive a fine, 12 points deduction & suffer relegation on the back of joyous news .......

Nothing has changed since I wrote this article in August. I'm delighted and surprised in equal measure that USM are sponsors/naming rights partners, but the issues relating to Usmanov becoming an owner of Everton still exist.

Unless I'm mistaken hugely mate, you also disagreed with me that usm would invest/sponsor the club when we where having a lot of debates over usmanov, and where quite adamant about that as well.

Usmanov will not have any involvement in the club was your stance I believe, as of today, he is involved now.

I would think there is an 'arms length' agreement which would limit it. I think the sponsorship would have to fall in line with what we would get from an external, indirect organisation or what similar rivals would get.
I could be wrong.

That's pretty much my understanding too.

Assuming this isn't the greatest photoshop con ever ( where is @Prevenger17 btw ? ), then the relevant people in Moshiri's team will have checked this very carefully and will be extremely confident that the deal will be ratified by the authorities.
