PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Who else remembers reports that UEFA had the "smoking gun" (provided by us!) to prove us guilty of all charges? They must have mislaid it. Perhaps it was lost in the OT trophy cabinet.

Our legal team were reported to be shocked when they realised that UEFA were relying solely on the emails and that the much vaunted document from City’s files did not exist.

Henry Winter in the Times stated then that City had tried to kick UEFA case into the long grass. He gave no evidence of this nor a reason why we would do that. He repeated this nonsense a few weeks ago re the current case saying: “The case should not be delayed by lawyers.”
Henry, it is called DUE PROCESS.

City went to CAS to have the case kicked out due to the breaching by UEFA of the confidentiality of the investigation by the investigative chamber namely Yves Leterme the chief investigator, the same man who forgot to charge PSG in time He’s was dismissed by UEFA after the City CAS verdict

*CAS refused to consider the appeal as City had already appealed to CAS to have the 2 year UCL ban lifted

Although we did not get a judgement in our favour due to jurisdictional issues, CAS gave Leterme a real kicking. Of course the British press reported it as “City lose CAS case”. Not one paper reported the severe criticism of Leterme.
The Adjudicatory chamber of EUFA appealed to CAS the decision of Leterme to clear PSG, but CAS just laughed at them (in suitably legal language) effectively appealing against themselves.

To be honest it just popped up on my youtube feed and i was only going to watch it for about 2 minutes but the more he got wrong I just kept on watching it.

Whats really interesting though is almost all the comments I read actually believed what he said was factual.

Whatever happens, the majority of football fans will consider us cheats even if we are cleared. The only non-City youtube football channel who is rational and sensible about this is Lee Gunner

And for this I cant see City settling quietly, why should we ?

The American clubs and the pl have thrown untrue slurs. I personally would City to dish the shit about the disgusting rags and dippers !!

The club might have no choice unfortunately. We want and need to stay in the premier league. The commercial contracts would also not be happy with a club in the sporting wilderness.

As fans, we want all hell to break loose and start attacking any club or journalist that has trampled over the clubs good name but we also have to remember it is a business first and foremost for Khaldoon & Mansour.

As such cool heads are needed to prevail. So although when we do get cleared we may have to swallow our pride and get on with it. Hence the closed doors agreement. It’s not right but what can you do. We want to be accepted.

Not going to post it on here but Goldbridge has posted a video about the potential trial date.

It's absolutely staggering the amount of stuff he gets wrong in 10 minutes

Are you surprised? What the fuck would he know about the inner workings of MCFC never mind the charges. He needs to keep the clicks coming in and now that the lemmings don’t have the rags to laugh at until Saturday, why not get them all fired up with a city video.

Can you explain what you mean by 'get cleared' via a 'closed door agreement' mate?

I see Everton have appealed.
HOW DARE THEY!!
Don’t they know they should plead guilty and except anything that’s thrown at them.
Plus how long is this gonna take?
I’m sure this has nothing to do with justice and they’re only doing it to hold things up.

All I’ve seen on social media today is everyone wishing Everton luck!

Well it sounds like he is a wanker and to think that some poor fuckers somewhere have probably had to listen to this guy when he's pissed for over half a century.

What about his Mrs? Poor lady although she probably walked away years ago. Being a Gooner he probably ejactulated too early.
 
2,3,4 or 5 more years to go till final decision, who knows.
But the longer it goes on more clubs may see through the premier leagues hounding of City.
Newcastle and Everton are now seeing things from a different perspective I would imagine.
Everton supporters are now seeing the link of nastiness shown by livarpool towards their club, from the attemped blocking of planning permission for their new ground to livarpools fingers in the pie of FFP that has now seen them deducted 10 points.
Newcastle supporters now see their path to success blocked by FFP instigated by the premier league at the bidding of the red tops.
Chelsea will not be on their side and neither I think will be West Ham.
So the longer it goes on more clubs will see our side and if one of the red tops is sold I can see the whole charade collapsing.

Hypothetically, let’s say the league came to the conclusion that they do not have enough evidence due to 1. because we have done fuck all wrong & 2. They can’t reach the extremely high threshold required to accuse the club of fraud. So out comes a statement saying the case is closed and we are satisfied MCFC have acted in good faith and within the legal and accounting framework. City agree as we want to stay at the top and off we go again.

Another battle won albeit with a few scraps.

All behind this political and financial pressure will be asserted.

It’s only my opinion mate. These things normally go away when no one is looking.

News lead with "relegated the cunts, take that".
