PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I can send Pep an email with tactical analysis for the Spurs game but that doesn't mean he will pay attention to it.

The PL aren't collaborating with other teams no matter what those teams try and do.

If they actually did that and that was ever provable, the PL would be susceptible to an absolute nuclear bomb of antitrust legal action.

Funny the directors of red clubs are seen all have dinner together.
Clubs write a joint letter to the league about us.
But yes….. you must be right (or short sighted).
I agree - the PL aren’t collaborating with other teams but - twisting it round somewhat- I’m afraid certain directors from certain clubs are collaborating with the PL

Funny you should mention Pep when he himself name-checked Daniel Levy last year as someone whose hands are all over this. Pep's far from stupid and wouldn't go around lobbing accusations like that if he didn't have any evidence of it.

I'm not being funny mate but you're incredibly naive if you don't think other clubs have been pushing the Premier League into taking action against us.

I have literally never said other teams aren't trying to influence the Premier League. We saw the 9 clubs get named publicly by Pep that wrote to UEFA (and he was right to do so).

What I've said is that there is no evidence the Premier League is actively involving them in the decision making process. Because that's a giant conflict of interest.

Get with what?

That's just confirming what I've said.

Other teams are going to want the Prem to bring the hammer down because it benefits them.

There is a difference between "other clubs want the Prem to kneecap their rival" and "the Premier League is actively fixing a kangaroo court with the help of other big clubs to guarantee we get the maximum punishment".

Nobody has said other clubs are hiding their interest in this.

Stop being fucking wet, for Christ’s sake! Of course there isn’t any evidence. Do you think they’d publish books about it or something? “My lunches with the Glazers and Scruffy Jim”, by Richard Masters (Harper Collins 2024). Chapter One. “Our plans to nobble those football ruining Blue bastards.”

Classic backtracking.
A little removed from your previous sarcy gambits.

despite suspicious accounting practices of liverpool and outright cheating in terms of hacking our database and despite the rags failing uefas version of ffp why have neither of these teams been subjective to the detailed investigation of their accounts going back over 15 years and an absolute forensic investigation of their books and business practices in the same manner that we have?

Not forgetting Liverpool failing FFP in 2013 and only escaping punishment by UEFA because they failed to qualify for Europe that season.

Then they were on the brink of failing FFP in 2015 but suddenly conjured up £35 million in 'stadium development expenses' specifically for the non-existent Stanley Park project which was initiated by Hicks and Gillette and no construction had been started by January 2012 when FSG canned the project. No details of how they could spend £35 million on a project that literally never got off the ground was made public but UEFA passed it and allowed the £35 million to be offset against Liverpool's FFP losses. (Take a bow R. Parry). This stunk to high heaven and my own feeling is that they held these 'expenses' back for a rainy day and produced them like a rabbit out of a hat when they were in deep shit in 2015 despite Hicks and Gillette having sold the club and ridden off into the sunset in 2010.

No Liverpool fan I've ever mentioned these two FFP breaches to either knows or admits to knowing anything about them. Some insist that these stadium development expenses were for Anfield but they weren't. The expense claim for Anfield also lodged with UEFA at the same time amounted to only £14.9 million, well under half the amount claimed for Stanley Park.

Maybe the PL can explain why they've not investigated either case but of course they won't.
