Re: Re:

Keith, can you explain to
Me why it contravenes EU law?

In short, because it restricts competition. I believe that legal opinion given to our owners supports this.

Correct, a judicial challenge of the FFPR at ECJ will only have one outcome.

It's currently being challenged but its the break even rule that they have gone for.

But to reiterate again its worth looking at the two new rules and then people will realise that it's only giving an opposing team the right to object to a plea bargain.

We have no need to plea bargain as we haven't been punished. The press have jumped on a small change in the rules which allow a club to have a say in another clubs plea bargain.

So lets say we we're punished, which I can't see why we would be. UEFA say right you can't sign any players for a year. We say call it a 10 mill fine. UEFA say ok. arsenal say we think its unfair because etc etc.

It's all ifs and buts.

Not necessarily but it is wide open to challenge. This is an interesting article on the subject:

Re: "City face Euro Expulsion"

Yet clubs can be in debt, its a load of tosh, i still believe the reason we are trying to break even is a our business plan rather than anything to do with FFP

Re: "City face Euro Expulsion"

If any or all of those clubs tried to take City to court via UEFA, the future of the PL would be at stake.

Can you imagine the fallout.

City would hit back and use their wealth via Abu Dhabi and drag those clubs through the courts. The PL would also be dragged into it.

Re: "City face Euro Expulsion"

Re: "City face Euro Expulsion"

A despicable dirty tricks campaign. Amazing how the media lap up every word Jose says without even thinking it through. He could say the world is square and the media would publish it.

We've clearly rattled our competitors and they're very scared.

Hope we thump them 8-0 and win the league at a canter.

Re: "City face Euro Expulsion"

So they want to take the ball home. Childish wa..kers. That's all it comes down to. Sad thing is these clubs got their own way before doing that.
