PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Ah ok. I do watch or listen to the podcast if that back pages show, and I honestly haven’t ever caught that, but yep, it is positive if they are doing.
What is really really obvious on that show is when the usual suspects (Delaney etc) are on it, they are so much more reasonable in what they say about us, in comparison to their written output. You would never guess the vitriol they write from the way they refer to us on air.
I do wonder now whether that’s due to a briefing from sky, or something direct from the club like TH is mentioning.

I actually don't mind Delaney on the back pages show, but his written articles are still close to the bone

Well I wouldn’t quite go that far(!), I’d always rather not see him, but there’s definitely a clear difference - I still think 100% that his written work represents what he really thinks about us.

Its because there are broadcasting standards which Sky must adhere to in terms of balance - there are none for written/printed/published press

Yep, we had to learn several phrases/laws, as I said it was 1 of 6 modules for the HNC, I used to have a good memory but our tutor advised us to write them down on cards, put the question on one side and the answer on the other. Shuffle them, then pull one out, read the question then try to recall the answer. It was learning parrot fashion really but I passed so it worked for me.

One of the others I remember was a case, Donoghue v Stevenson, which was used as a precedent law of Tort, the defendant was accused of being negligent in not preventing a snail to get into the Plaintiff’s ginger beer bottle.

I maybe an FOC with a somewhat dodgy memory these days but something’s do stick, I guess it’s the same with the Ryan Giggs song, “illegitimate”, that’s probably knocking on for 30 years old but we all remember it :-)

Crikey, Donoghue vs Stevenson takes me back to O Level Law in 1976/77 at Wythenshawe College. We had the coolest lecturer in town: Iain Morris from Wales, lived at the YMCA on Princess Road and had a fuck off Fenderstrat guitar. Happy days!

Do I get a bonus point in the history round for knowing the name of the YMCA hostel?

How do you know where he lived and what was in his house? Do the words “come round to my house and play with my Fenderstrat” mean anything to you?

It's a fruitless exercise. Yesterday I responded to a bloke who called us "oil money cheats". I asked him if he knew what the 115 breaches were? I then explained that almost all of the alleged breaches had been thrown out by CAS, so what were the PL thinking by coming after City again over the same allegations, using the same hacked evidence?

He responded with "STILL oil money cheats". What's the fuckin point? They've bought into the Red Top Mafia & Spuds narrative, & concluded we're guilty without even knowing what the breaches are.

It's frustrating, but fuck the lot of em. When this is all finally over & done with, today's newspapers will become tomorrow's packing material. The mud will continue to stick, but I suspect this was the least worse outcome for the Cartel Clubs.

Seeking to educate the stupid really is a pointless exercise.
