PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Every succesful club are hated by many , Bayern,Real , Barca , Juventus , PSG and other clubs who dominate their domestic leagues are hated by their competitors , we are hated because of our success in England , the Rags and Dippers were despised by many when they dominated included ourselves, we loved nothing more than stuffing the Rags on derby day.
Success breeds contempt , but the hate for our club has reached new heights , when certain clubs can force the league administrators to bring charges for off the field issues, it really is a sign of desperation and a last throw of the dice.
Our club is the best run club in the world from Sheik Mansour down to the tea lady , we have the best manager , players , facilities in the world and we cannot be beaten on or off the pitch , its been proven over the last decade or more.
We will not get the recognition we deserve because the all powerful red'istree clubs dont want us to , but probably well past my sell by date we will in years to come , in a decade or more we could be considered alongside the 'istree clubs , but that's not why i started supporting City , i am not interested in being the biggest , only the BEST.

The likes of Liverpool and United can’t compete with City on the pitch, they don’t have the business acumen to mirror what City do with their academy which is a huge revenue stream. They don’t have the ideas to create multiple clubs across the globe aligned with each other to grow a brand globally. They don’t have ideas such as building the biggest arena in Europe to turn the Etihad campus into a seven day a week destination.

They are lazy and incompetent which is why both clubs are saddled with debt and both owners would listen to offers if the right money was put on the table. City have broken them and their last desperate attempt to get one up is to have City erased from the playing board. It’s no coincidence that both these clubs were architects of the super league so they could ramp up their influence over top level football even further.

Which begs the question, why did the PL hand out these charges so willy nilly.
Surely they didn't think we'd just say "ok guv, it's a fair cop".
The PL's stance on all this makes no sense to me

Yep, exactly. The club is adamant there is nothing wrong at all. But the PL also must think to some extent they have a case. Otherwise we wouldn't be here.

They had 4 years, to come out of this, and could have used the cas outcome as proof if nothing else, given uefa's threshold is a lot higher than the PL's. They chose to spend those 4 years sticking as much on as they could find. That is not just some parade set up to fail. They will think something will stick. Time will tell who is right.
 
They have fucked it with this Everton decision. It makes no sense, you failed FFP by 20 million so we'll relegate you in the middle of a half a billion stadium development and send your 100+ year old institution bust.

Its a load of bullshit, the Government need to step in and wipe the boards and setup an independent regulator.

The current PL clowns are currently fucking up the UKs biggest cultural export to the world at the behest of a few yank owners who want a closed shop like the NFL to line their dirty pockets.

Funny coincide isn't it that the 2 main clubs being heavily persued by the Premier League and getting panned in the media (Everton and City) just happen to be the city rivals of the two red clubs who have historically demanded all the power and money in England. Also, those two blue clubs have middle eastern owners and the red clubs have american owners......

They were obliged to start an investigation once UEFA did as the two regulations are linked. I suspect fear of losing their honey pot with pressure from the other PL clubs and a potential independent panel drove the 115 charges.

By the same logic, once the cas case was concluded, that should have been enough to close their investigation. I'm not buying it. They are not blameless in this.

Cunts in the media falling over themselves to conflate Everton and City are like someone comparing a driver who got flashed doing 35 in a 30, who pleaded guilty to the offence, and got a harsher sentence than expected with another driver accused of doing 70 in a 30 who not only denies the offence but has asked the prosecution to provide evidence of the alleged offence but none has been forthcoming.

There is literally no evidence in the public domain in relation to these 115 charges - and my very strong suspicion is that none whatsoever exists. Certainly none of the cunts conflating the two situations will have had sight of anything meaningful or we’d be fucking sure to know about it.

So yes, City will be punished more severely if the case against us is proven, but presently there appears to be no case to answer, because if there was it surely would have been determined some considerable time ago.

Any talk of City delaying proceedings (which was the prevailing narrative in the media yesterday) is a complete red herring, as is the notion that City need time to prepare to defend these 115 charges. I expect the legal professionals we have engaged could do so in under a week, if required.

If the PL had the evidence to support these charges then we would now unquestionably be at a wholly different stage of proceedings.

Time will tell of course, but I fully expect that the delay is simply because the PL have nothing of substance to back up these charges.

The alternative, namely that the club has committed grand-scale fraud over a sustained period, is not only absurd, but lacking any discernible supporting evidence.

This part of the equation is always conspicuously missed by these cunts in the media.

Funny that.

"Yeah, but all those emails..." is one response I saw in a comments section when asked about concrete evidence. You know at that point it's futile getting into a debate.

The Evertons of this world wont be needed when the football vultures condense football into the world league they want.
 
Currently , today I'm not mithered. I just want them to bring a conclusion to it. I'm annoyed at our club for not defending this more publicly, I'm annoyed that the only pov on this is currently being given by our opposition fanbases and pundits, reporters. Relatively nothing from City podcasts, City media accounts.

Really disappointed if this goes on and on then we're found guilty. That will really piss me off with the club tbh. But that's what makes me think our club know this isn't going to result in any charges.
 
I watched the news last night and the situation with Everton was being discussed. The reporter mentioned City and Chelsea as much as he mentioned Everton. What’s the situation with City? Will they or could they be deducted points too? The bbc **** seemed to be getting sexually aroused at the prospect of City getting it tighter than Everton. Can anybody give me a steer about where we you see City with this stuff and if there is anything to worry about? Ta

The stuff that CAS discounted due to time barring won't apply to the PL though, they still had to conclude the investigation at least.

But that same stuff also can't apply in the PL, as FFP in the league did not exist at that point, and wouldn't for a good few years.

Club says completely innocent.

PL say appears quite guilty, big punishment looms.

Mibbes aye, mibbe naw. Stay tuned.
 
It's all very surreal currently.

Has a panel actually been selected? If so, has it sat yet? If it has sat have any charges been dismissed or not?

In a court case with multiple charges very often one or more will be withdrawn by the prosecution. This happened in the first Mendy trial for instance. Is the process we are in so secretive that nothing can be revealed until everything can be?
