PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Jesus H Gabz]

Anyone know of the government’s involvement in the sale ? Things could get very messy, especially if Chelsea discovered said misdemeanours during the sales process then spent a billion

 

[CC1]

Just a bit suspicious about this. Chelsea have obviously been overspending & I just hope that they haven’t struck a bargain with the PL to take an unprecedented points deduction (knowing they can’t compete this year anyway) so that the PL can use it to do the same to us???

Sounds far fetched but I don’t trust the FA PL UEFA FIFA or any of the supposed “top” PL clubs - who all just want to stop the City juggernaut

Am I being paranoid!!???

 

[wolviedinho]

A sign that the PL are perhaps distancing themselves from the charges?

What does “independent” look like?

Can only be good news.

 

[wolviedinho]

Chavs new owners dumping everything on the Russian. Didn’t see that coming! -:)

Nicely played tbf. They can claim ignorance and the bad war mongering man.

 

[Paladin]

Hopefully they will be stripped of all titles they won, and they will be awarded to the runners up.

Nothing Independent about this. The Premier League chose the Chair - les arse season ticket holder - then he picks the rest of the panel.

Not sure, but it may of been the guy Pep didn't want the team to shake hands with. Edit: Just found out it wasn't.

Let's hope they have inadvertently given the authorities an opportunity to delve deeper into their affairs ?

Maybe they have opened up a can of worms causing an investigation into their past dealings

The David Luiz transfer from PSG at the time was mooted as being dodgy. 50m and he was shite. Then they sold him back for the same price.

Oh yes. Chavs pay £25m for him, sell him for £50m, buy him back for £30m then sell him to les arse for £8m.

They had a few sales that weren't quite right.

 

[Cityfan1977]

there is such a strange take from many that City is somehow getting away with things and have the PL and UEFA in there pockets .
I think it is because rhe media have reported this saga completely wrong.
There is no doubt that City won at CAS because there wasn't any proof.
This is all what can we find on City to take them down instead of like what is happening at Chelsea where it is obvious they are cheating FFP.

and what the fuck is the women beater Collimore problem. What if Liverpool would be investigated would he say the same.

No that was bizarrely the former Palace manager Alan Smith. No sleight intended, Pep realised belatedly he was in front of some of the players. They had a handshake and long conversation afterwards by all accounts, plus an apology from Peo
Media trying to make something out of nothing
Not sure why AS was part of the presentation party in the first place tbh

 

[I'm Blue]

I think I heard that Chelsea under the Abramovich era are being investigated after the new owners reported the irregularities to both the Prem League and UEFA. I may be wrong but thats how I heard it this afternoon.

That was my take also.
Be interesting to see what they do about it considering it's the new owners that have brought it up.
Either way Chelsea are cheeky fucking cunts putting their name on that letter.
Old owner or not I hope they throw the book at them.
I hope Arsenal are next.

Pep please put the bike back before someone calls the cops.
Don’t worry Kyle no body saw me take it, and as it’s got no lights no fucker will see me ride off into the night.

 

[burning blue soul]

They handed themselves in?

The fuckin melts.

Exactly! At least go down fighting in a hail of bullets, ffs!!
Soft southern lightweights!!

 

[cookster]

More telling was he referred to our owners as a regime and that our dominance would come to an end.
Sounded like a threat.

 

[nmc]

Can’t see this Chelsea story all over the BBC - it would be headlines if it was us with Dan Wanker Roan Talking up our guilt and setting out the sanctions….

 

[jrb]

Points deduction. It is the Daily Fail.

New owners handed the club into the PL, etc.

Some of the comments are hilarious. :-) What about City!

Chelsea 'could face a points deduction' over secret offshore payments

The club's new owners uncovered a series of irregular transitions during the takeover process and alerted the FA, Premier League and UEFA to their findings.

Just repeating what Ten Hag said at the start of last season & we know how that went

Hahahahaha

I hold this view. I also suspect that by the time our case has ground through the various stages of pre- hearing challenge there will be an Independent gvmt Regulator in place who may play a significant role.
What an elegant solution for the PL and job done coz we continue to be covered in shit.

 

[jrb]

I wonder when the shit will hit the fan about United funnelling their revenues through the Delaware and Cayman Islands Tax Havens? Maybe that has something to do with the delay in selling United?

Sounds like Cerefin before he realised that the UEFA case was a sack of shit, at which point he came out with a similar statement as Masters.

Remind me again, how did the UEFA charge turn out?
