PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I don’t think this is correct. When/if City are cleared his audience will become stronger.

If you tell a conspiracy theorist they are wrong they just become more entrenched in their beliefs.

ie, if City are cleared it won’t be because they are innocent, it will be because there has been a cover up, expensive lawyers etc etc.

A not guilty probably helps Harris and his ilk because these people are their core (albeit dwindling) audience.

Any notion that even a total exoneration will see the world suddenly accept City have done no wrong is fanciful in the extreme.

He can't keep spreading lies though

I hadn't see his latest rantings. He is very upset by the podcast, very upset I blocked him and very upset that I refuse to take his feeble emails yesterday as some kind of de-escalation. Harris reads this thread voraciously. I will not descend to his level. I have never said to him I believe City are "dodgy" and there is a cigarette paper between my private and public view. It is safe to say he will publish (as he has done) whatever he thinks are my most scathing assessments.

I have said to him that I don't believe the toolkit thing Colin believes and that I have told Colin that. I also said Colin is wonderful self publicist (which he is). I also do not approve of any of the personal pile ons on Harris relating to his personal tragedy. I have also disapproved of that Rabin character on Twitter but we've had a mutual block for years anyway. Fundamentally, as I said yesterday I feel a bit sorry for Harris and his personal tragedy and that comes across on numerous times in our DMs over a 4 year period. More fool me.

I have published my DMs with Harris on Twitter. I won't be bullied by him.

Some people are just cunts. He is one of those people.

To hide behind a personal tragedy as some form of justification for him being a **** makes him an even bigger ****.

Nick, hi. You're a ****.

Where can I get my PB t-shirt and car sticker?

You did a cracking job back in the day. One of the few city accounts that made the majority of the journalists look like the dickheads they are.
I’m aware it came at a cost to your well being so hopefully you’re in a better place now.
You did your bit so be proud.

Nobley put - but the personal tragedy thing wears a bit thin - we all, well, a great many of us, have awful things to deal with and affecting us - usually such adversity brings perspective and understanding - clearly not in his case.
F*ck him.

Just to break off from the Harris talk, @Manchester33 has just re-iterated to me what he posted on here the other week - granted that post was slightly cryptic but he's confirmed that the club are "super confident" that we'll be fine. Now I know this is nothing new as such and City have expressed confidence throughout but I get the impression that this is based on the updates they're getting as to how the case is progressing. Can't deny that I'm still nervous though!

I'll start to worry when nobody turns up for work on the expansion.

It’s noticeable how no journalists are engaging with him & yet they do with each other all the time.

Because he is a total laughing stock within the industry. Nobody has been giving him work in good faith for a long time, but he used to be able to get the occasional column on City for the MoS to drive some clicks.

Even they’ve now fucked him off and left him having to try and hawk around his blog as a revenue source, but again, nobody is going to subscribe in good faith, so he has to go for the click bait audience by posting about City.

It all just underlines the general sadness of the guys predicament - he desperately wants to be seen as an ‘expert’ on football finance, but there are plenty of others, doing the job better than him for free, so he can’t monetise that in good faith.

He can’t write about other topics as he’s seen as a laughing stock and nobody will give him a platform, so again, he’s stuck writing about City as a potential avenue for monetisation, but then people like Stefan show him up on the big stage so he has to lash out like he has and try to paint Stefan’s evisceration of him as a performance for the masses and he has the real truth behind his paywall…

As Stefan says, the stuff about his personal life is completely unnecessary, cancer is a fucker and will affect most of us in some way in our lives. I would hope that anyone with a friend or family member afflicted by cancer in the past or present would be understanding enough to not go there.

He gives more than enough ammo to attack his more and more desperate sounding message without stopping to his level and attacking the messenger.

Fuck Nick Harris. He is completely, utterly irrelevant. He is an unstable hack who has as much access to the intricacies of this case as the rest of us. His understanding of the case is inferior to most posters on this thread. His approach is 'City are guilty. Now let's find something to support that argument'.

He's gonna sell a few books to the equally desperate masses that follow the red-wearing clubs. We'll be cleared on every charge. None of them will accept it, and they'll all continue to blame City for their own club's failings.

Need to see “irrefutable proof” mate.

Can you post your exact whereabouts on the day in question? I will not disclose the type of brick used. Also the person was seen donning a new “breaking & entering “ outfit with PB on the back singing ffp you can’t get me….

The case goes on.
