PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Rory Bluelow]

Of course it’s perfectly possible for the parties to be working towards an agreed exit strategy and the charges and planned hearing remain current in the meantime. Charges would always only be “dropped” by a formal announcement.

So the ridiculous Tony Evans wants us to take him to court? Thought he was already on his uppers?

Be careful what you wish for soft lad. (We know he’s reading this)

It's perfectly possible that the hearing will still go ahead for political reasons so the PL can show they've followed the process.

That, in their view at least, helps keep their hands clean.

No- libel. It is published on Youtube. Libel is not just written.Libel is a defamatory statement that is written. Slander is a defamatory statement that is oral.

You sure about that?
I'm happy to be corrected but in UK law, libel is normally a defamatory statement that is written. Slander is a defamatory statement that is oral i.e. spoken. Hence the distinction.

Top work mate.

Or the camera cuts to Roan, nailed to a cross, along with a load of his fellow "journalists", all singing 'Always look on the bright side of life".

He’s not the BBC sports editor, he’s a very naughty boy.

That’s what I think will happen. Can’t see how the premier league would be willing to pull the plug.

Yep, relegated to the cellar.

Man cave if you do not mind:)

Who knows ?
That could well be the “exit strategy”, I’m pretty well convinced that something’s happening - and it’s positive for the blues !

The process needs to be followed and justice must be seen to be done. Even if they accept their case is weak the PL will have to see this to the end or otherwise the cries of corruption will be deafening.

NEWS DROP:

I’ll start by making it clear that the following post is not based on confirmed fact.
However, the source from within the club which this post is based on has said things in the past that panned out exactly the way they said it would, including managerial appointments, transfers and the UEFA CAS conclusion.

So… City have successfully cleared their name before Murray Rosen KC and his independent commission panel appointed by the Premier League. The charges have again failed to stand up to scrutiny.
City are now working with the Premier League to decide and implement the best exit strategy for the shit storm that will unfold once the official announcement is made.

With other clubs already punished and millions of football fans around the world whole heartedly expecting this process to be a formality with a view to City facing the music, it’s not going to go down well at all.
Both Etihad Stadium security and the security of the Premier League’s head office in central London are being reviewed and bolstered in anticipation of the fallout.
In addition to these ongoing plans, City have prepared multiple legal proceedings against various individuals and organisations (not limited to the UK) who have been deemed to assert City as guilty before due process has concluded.

The Premier League must now lie in the hole that it’s dug for itself. They had the opportunity to stop what they were doing when UEFA failed at CAS, they didn’t. They had the opportunity to stop when City refused offer of settlement, they didn’t.
Why they didn’t is likely part of the bigger picture that involves other clubs within the league and their overreach of power and influence over the years.
I urge you now to buy popcorn while it’s still in stock blues… THE SCENES WILL BE BIBLICAL
