PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[blue b4 the moon]

The PL have announced the phased termination of Betting companies as shirt sponsors. Along with our charges and Everton's it seems they are doing their utmost to look squeaky clean to avoid an independent regulator. Is it a strategy to give them negotiation power ? or do they really think they can stop the government white paper. I wouldn't be surprised if more clubs, apart from a certain gang of four, will get clumped any day now.

It's a bit shit though, no changes for years and clubs can still have betting logos on sleeves & around the pitch.

He’s a long time Blue who appears on some video pods, pretty sure he travels home and abroad. No reason to think he would post this for effect but obviously I don’t know how accurate this is.

It’s Twitter. Someone is bound to guess right eventually. They are suggesting in the replies that they are in the know but if you were you wouldn’t broadcast it on something as shit as Twitter.

All a bit pointless banning them from the shirts when they're backdropped by huge flashing gambling adverts all around the pitch, sky sports 'news' drop the skybet odds into their reports and Ray Winstone is still telling us to lump it on the acca or cash aaaat at half time.

Bit like telling your kid they can't have a lollipop until they've finished their kilo of sugar lumps.

But gamble aware, of course

If my Aunt Freda had bollocks she’d be my Uncle Fred. It’s a bloke off Twitter. Well meaning or not, pay it no heed……

So party time? Or a tad premature?

The timeline from the legal eagles suggest two years at the earliest but if it’s all a load of bum fluff from the league then an early outcome would be great. Time to put away the noose…for now -:)

There was a post on here a while back saying something similar. Either they've got the same source, or it's the same story regurgitated.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

I've seen the same written by a trusted member on another forum.

Even before these comments (true or not) I've got very little concern on rte Premier witch hunt I was much more worried when UEFA were sniffing around.

The first time I saw a posting to the effect that the charges boiled down to a few main aspects and all but one had more or less already been refuted was by @tolmie's hairdoo on here (I stand to be corrected if that's wrong). This guy's wording seems fairly similar to me, while he also includes the formulation "I've heard ...", which I find rather vague and unsatisfactory. It certainly lacks a claim of a source with any authority.

I see from Twitter that City Rabin thinks this guy will be reliable, and maybe he does have a source of his own. My guess, though, would be that tolmie's information is doing the rounds and this guy has just picked up on it.

I’d say he’s been reading Bluemoon

*coughs*

Yep apparently there are only actually a handful of substantive charges but they are multiplied over various seasons to give the redshirt media their desired “”105 CHARGES!!!” headline

 

[TheRubberRing]

He’s good mates with cheesy and ian had a reputable source for the CAS case. I’d bet it’s the same person it’s all come from in my opinion.

Good news if so

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

You can say that again

 

[Roachy]

Really is becoming repetitive all this now.

 

[LongsightM13]

My guess is they’ll still try to do us for token non co-operation, to save face for the PL and allow Delooney and Harris etc to still be able to write their ‘City are guilty’ articles
The latter has gone off on one again.

There seems to be a suggestion that it’s come from a “former player/employee who’s just about to retire”. If so that’s really out of character cos he’s usually very guarded when talking about stuff like that.

Can you say that again, I didn't hear you the 1st time :)

If and that’s a big if, City are successful in the title race won’t that make the congratulations from the Premier league very awkward? They’ve sat on this investigation since February 2020 and done nothing whilst two other league titles have been won as well. Doesn’t make them look like a well run organisation does it?
