PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Sky sports news makings excuses for Everton and feeling sorry for them. Wonder if they’ll be like this if we get done. I think not! They’ll be popping champagne and doing the fucking conga round the studio!

I'm all for it mate if it happens and we get done for.

It's inevitable anyway in my opinion..In the next 25 years we will have a global league. That's my thinking.
 
Didn't take the Daily Mail long to start saying, we and Chelsea are next on the points deduction list.

I would love to hear from the critics on what are the exact 115 charges we accused of doing. I bet they can't even name 1.

We will eventually be cleared of the charges but I have a feeling we will be guilty of a few but certainly not all them.

Juventus came back before FFP really got ramped up.

If we got relegated we would lose a lot of sponsorship and TV money, 90% of the current squad would leave and the entire board would be sacked by Mansour in my opinion. Their positions would be untenable.

I also think if we did get relegated it wouldn't be to the Championship, the legal case against us of being dumped there instead of a promoted league 1 side would never stand. It would be a Rangers scenario where we have to start again. That in itself would lead to a minimum 4 years out of the PL.

And now because FFP is in full force with serious sanctions, we would be confined to spending whatever we bring in.

We would have to rely heavily on lower league scouting and more importantly our academy, of whom would primarily be the second rate players as the top class players will be getting moves to the top leagues. If we had another Foden or Palmer they would demand moves.

That's why I think if we get heavily come down upon and relegated, we will be going all out for the super league.

I think that will be our threat anyway in these proceedings. Basically us saying if you want to take us down, we are off, see you later. We've got Real Madrid, Barca, PSG, Juve and the Milan sides all wanting and ready to get it going.

Horseshit.

If you think any division outside of the Premier League would turn their noses up at City.

Rangers were disbanded due to tax reasons.

As for a Super League. City have signed a £250m fine levy if we tried to leave again.

yeah, so Stan - should someone who is accused of shoplifting (based on very flimsy evidence), forgo the legal process and automatically get the same punishment as, I don't know, say - a brummie bellend who is is guilty of kicking fuck out of a woman half his size? Where's that popcorn? don't want yours Stan, god knows where those dogging fingers have been

Heard an Everton fan on talkshite before saying that if we've been sanctioned to a 10 point deduction then City should be relegated to the conference for what they have done. Firstly I thought how does he know what weve done and is the allegation even true then I thought what a twat.

He doesn't know what we've done, none of these morons do. They all think we got of at CAS cause everything was time barred and now were done for as nothing is time barred. They literally know nothing about it other than the number 115.

"was the result of Everton IRRESPONSIBLY taking a chance that things would turn out positive"

That is curious language in the judgement. Was it really irresponsible?
£20m is approx 10 places in the league, spread over a three year period that's 3 or 4 places better off than they actually finished , which itself could be a simple as a couple of losses instead of wins.

What does this tell ambitious teams for the future?

He's heard what I've been telling the forum all along. That there are essentially just three substantive charges, plus the consequent ones deriving from those three (failure to provide accurate accounts, which then impacts PL cost control rules and UEFA's FFP).

The three are:
  1. Mancini's Al Jazira contract. Red herring and UEFA also knew about it in 2018.
  2. Image rights payments. UEFA knew about this by 2015 & it was resolved.
  3. Sponsorship revenue, probably the Etisalat contract that was time-barred. Again, UEFA knew about that and had agreed there was no issue.
If none of those can be proven then the rest automatically fail.

Multiply that by multiple rules and multiple years to get the magic 115 number.

There are 3, or rather 5 'groups' of charges.

But there are still 115 charges. You are right, if you can't prove a group, everything in it falls. But if you can, all the charges in it stand. It does not mean there are only 3 charges.

You can’t come on here talking facts. Now let’s get back to wild conjecture and re-writing history.

Be a bit unfair if a league 1 side gets promoted and we come down and replace their position? That in itself would be a court case surely?

And in regards to the fine... i think if we got put down a few divisions, that 250m fine would be worth paying to keep us at the top so to speak?
 
Interesting that we haven’t been hit by anything. I guess their case against us isn’t so straight forward. People act like we were caught red handed. It doesn’t appear that way to me.
