PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Let's get relegated for the fun of it.

Give the rags and scousers fun for a year or two and then show them up again by spending a billion.
 
As a fan of another team, I find this very interesting. But what strikes me after reading a lot of this thread is that there's a lot of blame-game going on here. I've read a lot of blame towards other clubs, the FA and PL, but very few, if any, are talking about the real case and the substance in the accusations. If there's done something wrong, which the enquiry will find out, surely there has to be consequences?
I don't think anyone disagrees with that.

We also can't talk about the "real case" with "substance" as there's no information out there to do so - the charges are so broad.

What the "blame game" might be about is the concerted, repeated, organised and clear vendetta against our club orchestrated to ensure that pockets are lined and trophies are won by other clubs.
 
The directors could have a go, but I think the strongest defamatory remark is the one I've highlighted below - this alleges that "The owner" paid something, and - going off what Prestwich Blue posted earlier today - the payment can be distinguished in law as coming from the sponsor:-

"....There was a total lack of transparent flow of financial information. With a battery of lawyers, they did everything they could to counter the work of our auditors. In addition, it turned out that money from sponsorship was actually paid by the owner.' "

It would be lovely to hear that Msr Letterme and the Mail are being sued by everyone on the board, but the problem with any claim in defamation is that it will prolong matters, one way or the other. No doubt someone at City is combing over everything - if not, I volunteer my services in return for a new club scarf and hat.

Not sure, that statement could be argued isn’t incorrect. It’s just not complete.
 
We’re in good hands

They'd fucking better be.

Any reason it has to be a UK firm? Aren’t there some US lawyers who can get anyone off anything if paid enough, the sort who get celebs off rape charges or make sure various illegal government activities never get made public?
Johnnie Cochran, Robert Kardashian, and F. Lee Bailey are deceased...Robert Shapiro is still kicking...
