I assume you don't use that term in the Small Claims court then?

Not at all.

they use FFS all the time as I understand it.

‘Mate’ and ‘pal’ are the standard terms of address in the SCC.

‘Mate’ and ‘pal’ are the standard terms of address in the SCC.

Not "blud" and "fam"?

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Not "blud" and "fam"?

Only at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court.

How small is this small claims court?

You would think they would build a bigger one.

As in ‘jog on, pal’ instead of ‘I’m not with you on that point, Mr Moustache?’

 

[Ardwick Green Blue]

There seems to be a pile-on with @gordondaviesmoustache being accused of being an habitual drunk by all & sundry.

Disgraceful..

As in ‘if I could invite Your Lordship to consider Practice Direction 2F: Court Sittings in relation to Michaelmas sittings, contained in CPR Part 2, 1.1(1)(a). Cheers mate’.

I like to mix things up.

Who is they? Ronay, Wilson or Liew.

All rats, the guardian is very anti City as we all know.

Any outlet that's for so many years put forward a loathsome, smug and vacuous dilettante like Barry Glendenning as someone worth listening to really deserves bankruptcy. Especially when the charge-sheet also includes inflicting David Conn's vapid, po-faced bilge on us over the same period.

Did the head honcho turn up them?

If we win can I go and thank khaldoon in person?

 

[Marvin]

You keep telling us to not to read/listen/ comment on the guardian but you do it all the time

You have to know what your enemy is doing.

"thank" Is that what it's called now.

 

[Impeccable One]

I know what you mean.Feels like derby week but worse.We have to win by a knockout.

Hope it doesn't turn out like one of those 2-1 losses where I was just grateful we didn't get massacred :O

The Guardian Football Weekly Podcast is wank.

The first 2 words and last 2 word suffice, no need for the middle 3

The main offender today was Philippe Auclair.

I saw your comments about Rob Harris and Auclair was mild in comparison.

Rob Harris on Talksport (Natalie Sawyer show, last 10 minutes of the 10.00-10.30 segment) I don't ever listen to Talksport for the usual reasons but wanted to check what Harris had to say. It was bad.

"The case is about city trying to show the (UEFA) evidence is inadmissible. City say it is based on hacked or stolen information, documents published by der spiegel 18 months or so ago. It is about City trying to say you can't use this information because it wasn't legally gained. But other cases in Switzerland and CAS have said it is allowed to use such information and recordings.

City were previously sanctioned by Uefa six years ago for FFP breaches. That was overstating the source of revenue from sponsorship linked to their Abu Dhabi ownership. This is not retrying that case. It is new evidence around that and the suggestion that Manchester city actually were misleading or deceiving UEFA for a longer period of time over the true source of the sponsorship income. Some of it was allegedly linked back to the Abu Dhabi ownership, other companies in Abu Dhabi and the money was being channelled around and that led to the income being overstated.

There was significant evidence published by der Speigel showing internal Manchester city correspondence discussing this attempt to circumvent FFP. Manchester city have never disputed the authenticity of this documentation and they are trying to say it is out of context and should not even be considered because of the illegality of how it was obtained. But there is a pretty extensive amount of detail there of how city were trying to artificially raise their revenue because under FFP you are only permitted to make €30 million losses over three years and you need to be able to generate the money yourself".

All & Sundry is the name of the firm that handles most of the Small Claims Solicitors’ disciplinary work, so being accused of being a drunk by All & Sundry is actually quite serious.

It’s Philippe Auclaire saying those things. He’s a Wenger mouthpiece. He even says financial doping and assumes City’s main argument is that you can’t use stolen emails.
