Recap pages are Spoilers Off, but I'm not sure ATT is - would you mind tagging some of that?
Too late for me, but other tropers might appreciate it.

Shortly after the episode aired, I added the following to Recap.Ted Lasso S 3 E 12 So Long Farewell.
The entry was subsequently deleted twice; the first claiming that Rupert was at risk of losing the club over "inappropriate conduct towards his employees" and the second resorts to speculative troping by claiming we don't know what the allegations are - except the episode makes clear that it's allegations of "sexual impropriety".
Now, here's the thing - the Premier League handbook
lists the various disqualifying factors for their Owners and Directors Test on Page 75 of the linked pdf, and convictions regarding sexual harassment or other related crimes are not a disqualifying factor. Rupert simply could not be forced out because of those allegations, guilty verdict in court or not.
I propose the following rewrite before reposting to the page:
- Artistic Licence – Sports: Rupert would not be forced out of West Ham ownership over allegations of sexual impropriety, as the episode suggests was on the brink of happening as he arrives in the executive box prior to kick-off, as criminal charges relating to such actions are not one of the disqualifying factors under the Premier League's rules for being owner or director of a Premier League club; assaulting George Cartrick during a highly viewed internationally broadcast game, on the other hand, could potentially result in Rupert facing criminal charges and subsequently being disqualified from being owner or director of a Premier League club under the league’s rules for ownership as such charges are one of the disqualifying factors.
