PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Coatigan]

It’s a meta…….. oh forget it

An overused one.

If they had a smoking gun, why is it taken 4 years to investigate & why didn't uefa & CAS see that smoking gun

Because it was a water pistol.

 

[foggy1974]

Because it was a water pIstol.

Hahahahaha

See when people put up gifs and images of bubbling pots on the hob, they do know that piss boiling is meant to happen inside the body right, from all the anger? Doesn't really work if you piss in a pot and stick it on high heat.

How do you know? ;)

The obsession with "empty seats" is what gets me, comming from a rag or dip is understandable but from Huddersfield and Luton ?. On this very subject, the way things are shaping up, next season when clubs across Europe are playing in the various UEFA comps on Tue/Wed/Thu nights there will 76,000 empty seats in the swamp every single night....

Same with all the away fans that turn up at the Etihad and sing WWYWYWS.
While there’s empty seats at their own grounds every week.

Didn’t know it was a Grimsby fan.
Makes it all the more compelling and factually accurate to come from the mouth of someone who has no relationship with City.

Not really surprising when Grimsby have the highest ever crowd at Blundell Park West…

Had a soft spot for Grimsby since last year's playoffs. They were absolutely brilliant in the face of adversity both against Notts Co. in the quarters and Hollywood FC in the semi's. Also enjoyed the fact they were sponsored by Young's fish fingers. The penalty decision in the Semi's possibly one of the worst ever

worth an oggle...

Nothing we didn’t already know but a lot every other **** doesn’t.

Nearly made an Adam Johnson joke there.

Written by a rag, clearly.

Written by an imbecile who doesn't understand football finance. In the first two pars he refers to breaches of FFP rules dating back to 2009. In fact most of the allegations are nothing to do with the former FFP rules. The allegations from the PL are mostly around false accounting. Meanwhile it is impossible for FFP rules to date back to 2009 because they weren't introduced till 2012. Still never let the facts get in the way of a story as the saying goes.

Is it litigious? I mean I read that BBC piece and immediately you could see the glaring errors.
