PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Invisible Man's Bandage]

Chelsea will have a case to answer next season and unless they come up with some incredible transfer income they are in very serious doo doo.

Chelsea have three issues to contend with and the one you reference is indeed for next season but the other two are potentially far more serious:

The new owners have reported potential issues with previous years accounts. Although they are from the Abramovich era it will be the club that receive any punishment. You'd assume there could be some mitigation though.

The Guardian have an ongoing investigation into disguised owner investment by Abramovich involving millions going to club employees, players and agents. Essentially a mirror of what we've been charged with

Marina Granovskaia linked to secret payments by former Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich

Powerful chief executive of Chelsea under Abramovich appears in documents showing offshore payments by oligarch

Finally, it is almost certain that they will fail PSR for 2023-24 by a huge margin. They need to raise way over 100 mill net profit on player sales by June 30th this year.

Stefan discussed this with same outcome on TS a few weeks back. Basically they can't get out of it as the players they would need to sell (i.e. the ones in their prime) would not go to the only clubs that would be willing to pay the required over inflated prices for them (i.e. Saudis). FFP and PSR means that most other European clubs would be priced out of what Chelsea would need to get for them

The stupid fuckers didn’t take into consideration that were the best run club in the world

Hopefully

Hopefully

That’s why the rags are trying to copy everything we do mate

Not a problem according to a Chelsea fan on Stefan's Twitter. All they need to do is sell six players to Saudi by June 30th. He reckoned Stefan was a prick! His reply was very funny.

We will find out who the prick is on July 1st.

"Guilty" till proved innocent, is the approved method in today's society.

365 site is a clickbait site for red tops, spuds and other brain dead football supporters.

Unless it’s a red club - they’re never guilty even when proved

Minor issue

I wonder if the PL can name any equivalent body that has an arbitration system where:
1. The governing body get to pick a member but the other party does not.
2. The governing body’s pick gets to pick all the members of the panel.
3. There is no appeal except to itself or to a court only in the most narrow of circumstances.
Justice not seen to be done.

 

[Ballosteve]

I'm pretty sure Arry's dog completed that deal

To busy eating his cheque books...

 

[Stoned Rose]

They're not independent. What verdict do you come up with if your job depends on you saying guilty? Just be prepared for relegation punishment, absolute uproar followed by a public hearing of some kind via new government administrators.

The only absolute uproar is the one in your head mate.

They've probably just watched the Netflix Documentary and realised they've picked an unwinnable fight.

We really should have got a 1st one for the centurions season.

I'd make Masters present it in his Gimp suit for full humiliation.

I'd make Gill present it in full City kit for full humiliation.
