PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Apologies, im in Thailand supposed to be on holiday so I have to meticulously plan time to check my phone when Mrs L isn’t looking!

On your points, I think it’s pretty clear we come at this from diametrically opposed positions and won’t see eye to eye which is fine.

As we have all discussed to death, the ‘serious’ charges re: sponsorships it’s impossible to see any realistic prospect of the PL landing, so if your position that despite being ‘charged’ with not declaring Mancini’s full salary and over the Fordham setup they’re indeed nothing burgers and non-actionable then the tribunal will be substantively over before lunch of Day 1 :)

Where in Thailand? I can explain it all to you face to face :)

Well, bugger me with a fish fork. That's where I live. If you went Mae Rim to the Tiger Park you would have driven past the golf club. We have a house there. Thaksin has his house a few up from us. The ****. You should have told me yesterday ......

You are in CM too? Some sort of Bluemoon reunion no-one told me about? :(

But yes, air quality this time of year is always bad.

Edit: And while I think about it. Not at all posh, you cheeky bastard. Just a ****.

You could also add that clubs are now asset stripping to stay inside the new financial rules. Whilst rags for example just carry on with their model.

How can Newcastle possibly having to sell players to be within the new regs when they have the riches owner in the UK be right ?

How can it be right that the club with the biggest debt is going to the government to fund their new statium. Also were fined for failing UEFA ffp by nearly 50million but pass the pl regs.

How can it be right that a club funding its own statium is now struggling to meet the regs and has points deducted

One statium could be state funded like WHU who got a free statium. How is that fair on clubs that had to fund their own statium.

The PL is a total shambles

I thought United was minor breach and we did not know how much they failed by. That amount they should have resulted in serious sanctions not tiny fine

they were unable to adjust for €47m of Covid losses in the 2022 monitoring period because of an unforeseen change in how Uefa treated those losses during the transition to its revised financial sustainability regulatory framework. The losses came on top of €234m of pandemic-related losses across 2019-20 and 2020-21.
 
If UEFA thought only 6 emails from the stolen 5 to 6 million documents were worthy as evidence, where are the Premier League getting any new evidence from? Based on the CAS case, without any new compelling evidence, it's unlikely the PL will be able to prove that City are guilty of financial wrong doing. This is a witch hunt pure and simple. Why aren't the press reporting this angle? Because the baying mob want blood and the facts spoil a good story. Ignore the click-bait.

Wrong again, it is true that there’s no time bar in the Premier League rules unlike UEFA’s. Thats a fact, I don’t care if you can’t stomach it.

Both are subject to the law of the land in which they’re enforced, like every single contract ever written which is why no one feels the needs to spell it out in every post.

That is what you’re pointing out, but that is something completely different. The panel won’t be making judgements on the statue of limitations, just as CAS would have allowed the earlier evidence into the case if it was looking at the PL’s rule book and the club would have to go to a high court after a verdict to appeal on the grounds of the statute of limitations.

Limitations, where do you want your statue?

Weren’t United the only club claiming covid losses in the Premier League in their 2022 accounts. Dodgy as fuck that.

I was there last week, I had to get out because of the air quality. Headed south to Krabi but it’s still pretty bad there so headed to Samui, which is fine. Seems to me that the bad air quality has lasted longer than it normally does. Fucks me up with my asthma.

Don't know about that but Spurs and Liverpool(?) both claimed for furloughed staff, one backtracked when public outrage hit them, it wasn't Spurs obviously.

It’s not been “done in a fair way” from the start.
We’ve been portrayed as guilty from the the first minute we were charged by ALL the MSM, SKY, TNT, TALKSHITE and everyone else.
So you Scouse **** you can shove your support where the sun don’t shine.
It’s quite frankly too late as the damage has been done.
Let’s be honest he’d be saying fuck all if his beloved Everton hadn’t been charged.

Burnham has shown poor leadership skills on the City issue. He is mayor of Greater Manchester and Sheikh Mansour has been one of the biggest investors in his region. No one is asking him to speak in detail about the allegations but he could have shown public support to a project which has brought billions of pounds into his city and created thousands of jobs. The reason he has tried to stay on the fence is because he fears losing votes from the huge volume of MUFC (and some LFC) fans in his patch. He is just another spineless politician playing the long game. This country is full of them.
