PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[halfcenturyup]

I have a similar ish view, then I think Hmmmm what happens when/if he gets the gig?

Frankly, I think the world would have ended and we will have all gone to hell before that happens.

So….we’ve just hired a performance analyst, that up until 18months ago worked for the dippers, I wonder if he has any nuggets for us

But that's assuming their own media outlet wasn't/isn't in someway complicit in that corruption.

Yeah, you literally see how the twitter files are all but ignored by the MSM in the US, for example.

I think the stuff about any supposed recording is probably best kept in a separate thread, as it’s distracting a bit from the main subject here. Cheers.

Exactly. This thread has turned into garbage. Can we get it back on focus for real updates and comments and not the David Icke nonsense that’s been on the last 50 pages.

If I was in possession of such info or evidence, I would take it direct to City and sell it to them for £100k and also insist on a job!

Can you play left back?

I hear there's an opening!

Going off on a slight tangent, but related topic - interesting article in the Guardian (I won't link to it), but it's basically about how social media is being manipulated by organisations for hire – I'm positive rival teams have been using this to smear us... I've reported shit loads of bots replying to City related tweets in the past week or so...View attachment 69788

The scousers definitely engage in something like this.

Especially when they smash up coaches, chuck pint pots at little girls or cause a crush with forged tickets at finals.

Hope they forgot to change his password

Fair enough. I know bugger all about these things. About most things actually.

Fair play mate. Such insight and self-awareness is all too rare on here! ;-)

Thats right! And I should know.

Long gone are the days of £50k for a story.

Most I ever got was £15k on Simon Cowell more than a decade back.

Unless you are a celeb sit-down, newspapers pay peanuts these days and just rip off each other and fuck over freelancers trying to earn a living.

If I was in possession of such info or evidence, I would take it direct to City and sell it to them for £100k and also insist on a job!

If you had any information on anything like that, I`m sure someone at City would give you a Blow Job.

 

[Silva61]

Correct. As far as those who can be trusted or get steers.

The pool is very small.

Jack G, Martin Blackburn, Phil Thomas and Simon Mullock

Two are Blues, one is a red and another is a Blackburn fan.

All are top journos.

Outside the local patch, the higher ups do brief Ornstein, which doesn't sit well with me and I'm sure doesn't with those other lads.

Said on here before, Jack Gaughan is a Blackpool fan, went to school with my son's, and used to contribute to their match day programmes.

 

[foggy1974]

Don't see the latter. Glazers would not sell up if there were the slightest chance of English clubs breaking away again.

Too much money on offer.

This is about an independent regulator cutting the balls off the Premier League and FA.

Thus, cutting the balls also off United and the cartel clubs.

Can't enforce the status quo if the votes no longer count :)

Although I agree its more about cutting the balls off the pl
Glaziers would be rubbing their hands with the thought of receiving between 4 & 6 billion without having to pay any of the loans back

 

[foggy1974]

I found it interesting if my memory serves me right, Neville took a positive slant on City after we were charged and was quite sceptical of the validity of the charges- I personally think the Cartel know the days of manipulation are nearly over and have gone for it -

Gniac thou & as trustworthy as an MP. He probably knew all about the Qatari wanting to buy the rags & thats why he's changed his tune

 

[whipper]

Who or what would/could have stopped all the hysteria in the press about the PL charges? It's gone incredibly quiet.

That, detective, is the right question.

As the FootballIsFixed guy has posted the information in his blog, I'll go live on it.

Among the information he passed on was that a number of people reporting to LFC were working in our Performance & Analytics team. My understanding is that a number of people were sacked soon afterwards. I also believe there was a 'war room' at Liverpool's HQ where these activities were coordinated from. However I believe we were already aware of this.

That's why I was so convinced something major would happen. I couldn't see how this wouldn't be a major scandal. But for whatever reason it's been 4 years and nothing. At least not yet.

Imagine going to all that effort just to be beaten to the title 4 times out of the last 5 - with the 1 having a Covid-sized asterisks next to it.

 

[johnnytapia]

Can an organisation not file for a super injunction even if the press actually wanted to run with a story like this or does a SI have to be from an individual?

We could get a local MP to discuss openly in House of Commons under Parliamentary Privilege.

Like Pep has said, we had to be perfect, had we not it could have been very different

 

[johnnytapia]

No one has exposed anything. Exposing something would mean evidence of something at least, if not proof.

We've seen half a rumour and a refusal to expand on it at all, which makes it a conspiracy theory.

It's not Watergate, it's chemtrails, illuminati, Elvis is still alive type stuff.
