As far as I can tell Jordan is only good at 2 things (1) forming long sentences that make absolutely no sense (2) running football clubs into administration

You have to think if Jordan was struggling with the concept of FFP and what it really means then no wonder Palace nearly went down the shitter,I think more people on here know more about its implications to clubs than him....
'Oh..it's twue, it's twue..!!' - Lily Von Schtupp, 'Blazing Saddles'.Fwankenstein Wuined My Life.
I've listened to Jordan a few times over the years, the last time was couple of mths ago when projectriver was on TS. Even when details of City's case were presented to him, most of which was clearly above his head, he couldn't help interjecting to try and make himself relevant with little jibes against us.
So I agree, he doesn't seem intelligent enough to have come to this conclusion himself.
I recall when the PL initially raised these charges against City, he was almost joyous. He has always had a clear agenda against us, calling us a Frankenstein club, with no acknowledgment of how in the past other clubs have also had large cash injections.
There was certainly no insight or even analysis from him at all into why the PL introduced FFP.
I realise that's how TS often operate, to create agendas and get people worked up and on opposing sides, to listen and to ring in, clearly Jordan is just an affable pawn in their strategy, often without the intellect to fully understand the subject or present a balanced view.
Simon Jordan has a keen intellect and is often insightful. On TalkSport, he is stupid for money.

So by that theory, would have Murray Rosen have seen both the charges & City's evidence before the Judicial Panel sit?I don't think for one moment they've been "dropped".
But there's a sense that Murray Rosen is saying they're weak, and the PL are looking for a way out. Hence the approach from them about a settlement.

Some awesome big words in one post, splendiferous.Yeah that’s my view too mate. Organisations make calls based on the information before them at the time and cannot possibly be expected to anticipate how matters will develop. I expect it was seen as an irritation and an act of egregious disrespect at the time, rather than anything that could be a real threat to our hegemony.
And looking back, it was actually a serendipitous decision as (assuming the act gave Liverpool added impetus, which I think it did) it has given us a consequent rivalry which contains three epic title races (four, if you include this season) where we have come out on top - with some truly incredible memories along the way.
And Liverpool got to lift the PL trophy in an empty stadium.
Seems like poetic justice to me.

I told you all weeks ago...
Don't worry about a thing!
I'm not sure about any of the info on that Facebook post, but it makes sense that the PL and City would take security concerns seriously... given how upset fans of the Red Cartel are going to be.

Maybe in some areas, he is clearly a good businessman, but his 'stupid act' on TS is too good to be an act. He often comes across as too sensitive to criticism of his ideas to have a keen intellect imo.Simon Jordan has a keen intellect and is often insightful. On TalkSport, he is stupid for money.

Well, yes, of course he (or his panel) would have to have seen these.So by that theory, would have Murray Rosen have seen both the charges & City's evidence before the Judicial Panel sit?

Explain please.Data protection act
We should service mark all the regular phrases. We could make a fortune out of ‘mancheaty’.Of this I am certain. Guilty or not guilty, they won’t stop.
Calling us out as cheats has become a cottage fucking industry in this country and they will never stop with it.

Bollocks.Anyones personal data that was on that database could have raised a claim against us for not keeping their data safe, we would have been liable to them. Liverpool were liable to us due to the actions of their employees.
It was in both clubs interests for it not to go further than it did.
They accessed our data base covertly and certainly without our authority.
It could've been illegal !!

We've always been labelled cheats ever since the takeover. Every trophy, every title was won by "Oil money", it's just now the critics have a new phrase to use, "115".
Fact is I don't care if Liverpool fans, Arsenal fans, Aston Villa, Bournemouth or even Coventry fans give a shit about Manchester City winning the title. The ones revelling in a Manchester City title win would undoubtedly be Manchester City supporters. That's why I don't get the "No-one cares if City win the title" narrative because, unless you support MCFC, why would you?
We're called cheats, told that nobody cares, well someone who wouldn't care wouldn't bother talking about us all the time, would they. Let these little snidey digs brush off you and realise that they are ALL hurting, because they cannot escape the reality that their team isn't as good, Manchester City IS the best team in the world and this is just their way of coping with it.

It’s not bollocks mate. Liverpool’s hack was criminal activity, whereas City would be held responsible by the ICO for the data breachBollocks.

Both City & Liverpool were culpable in this instance
