PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

On no here we go again !!! ...

Breaking News...

The European Super League have just announced they are charging Manchester City FC with numerous breaches of the leagues disciplinary code including:-

Rule 1a : All member clubs MUST complete the formal application forms using BLACK ink.
Rule 2a: All member clubs MUST complete the formal application forms using the date format DD/MMM/YYYY
Rule 4a: All member clubs MUST complete the formal application forms before 01/JAN/2023

In the latest shocking revelations revealed in DER SPUNKER investigative journalists have stolen emails in which officials of MCFC openly discussed completing application forms using Blue ink pens provided by a Middle Eastern stationery manufacture. The applications forms sent by MCFC also contained willful use of alternative rogue date formats. This was done in a willful attempt to deceive the Super League. There is also documented evidence that the application form was not received by the ESL until 5mins past the specified deadline.

if found guilty, there are NO limits to the punishments that MCFC can receive. These could include the demolition of all the Ethihad Campus including the associated ASDA superstore. All supporters of MCFC could face re-possession of their homes and have there passports revoked. Its also possible that a £500 million fine could be applied.

In response MCFC have published the folllwing statement:-
"We are baffled by these allegations made by the ESL disciplinary commitee as we havent sent any application forms to join the ESL"

This denial by MCFC has been meant with deep skepticism, former LFC player and Sky Pundit Jimmy Scouser commented "They must be guilty and should be thrown out the ESL before it starts, the ESL must be seen to be applying the rules - apart from those related to computer theft, falsifying player medical records and the attempted destruction of any opponent's team bus"
 
Ex-City financial advisor Stefan Borson, C.E.O for Watchstone Group, said it could take a “long time” before the process is completed.

“I think it is unlikely that the club will be able to appeal to the English courts due to the Premier League’s rules requiring its disputes to be dealt with by Commission and arbitration,”

“The seriousness of these allegations is likely to mean it will be a long time before the disciplinary process can be completed -- I would not be at all surprised if it took in excess of two years.

“Ultimately, I believe it will be very difficult for the Premier League to prove this scale of wrongdoing..."

If John the murderer says “I think I should deal with my own sentencing at home, my mate Jim can decide the verdict”, do we spare him the process of a trial and conviction and let Jim proclaim John’s innocence?
 
The anonymous gentleman won't have to sully himself with Trivial things like brown envelopes, or indeed do any form of violence to them, his job will be to explain what life will be like for them if his requests are not carried out forthwith.
Absolutely right. In olden times they used to show the prisoner the instruments of torture long before they put them to use - and often that was enough.
 
Here we go.

They’re all meeting.

Even the fu*king Saudis and Newcastle are apparently in on it.

As for Boehly, having just spent hundreds of millions on players and getting around FFP by giving all the new players long contracts.

Cunts, the lot of them!

Didn't Amanda Staveley work as an advisor when Sheik Mansour/Adug bought City? Or she helped to broker the deal and was paid rather handsomely for her work. I remember something along those lines in the press at the time.
 
It's not like a private members club though is it. It's a business worth hundreds of million of pounds, with hundreds of employees. We don't go to the pl private members club for a drink and a bite to eat, then get a lifetime ban for calling the landlords mrs a slag. It's our whole business. I believe we will win, maybe a fine for non cooperation same as CAS, but any draconian punishment that doesn't fit the crime will surely have a route to legal redress.
The Premier League cant act outside the laws of the land surely…??
 
I’d be very surprised if there wasn’t some diplomatic pressure being applied from the UAE, tbh. This has gone a bit beyond just City now, with the likes of Khaldoon and Mansour himself, having their integrity so publicly questioned. It seems unthinkable that the recent investment plans won’t be used as leverage imo.
But we’ve got probably the most incompetent government in history so we could end up in a far bigger mess if they get involved ;-)

Think it’s already been mentioned but this was a scheduled meeting and nowt to do with all the bollocks that’s come our way this week.

They're right shit stirring bastards aren't they?
Fuck the media.
 
Unlikely to be dropped one day but a hearing hurried up and no case to answer. Though a fine for non-coperation.
I think that's significantly more likely. Having announced that it will go to an independent panel, the idea it doesn't make it that far seems remote. As has already been stated, if we were going to use diplomatic pressure then wouldn't it have been used long before now?

It does, absolutely. Al Jazira is a personal holding for Mansour, it was never integrated into the CFG nor even with ADUG, once they shine their torches on both clubs at once, it becomes a personal attack on HRH.

That also makes it an attack on the House of Nahyan, which in turn makes it an attack on the UAE.

City business on it’s own is not UAE’s business. Likewise, Al Jazira business on it’s own is not UAE’s business. But put it together, and it suddenly becomes personal, and that’s exactly what the league has done.
