PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

What are the odds on two people being up at 12.51am at the same time? Even in conflicting time zones, when one is more likely to be wanting their bed and the other is having his dinner?
Harris is a wanker
He's also Magic Hat
And when he's arguing with himself
He looks a total twat.
 
If the club’s lawyers wanted to prove Magic Hat is Nick Harris, then it's trivial. AI based Anti Plagarism software will return a "same author probability" in the high 90% range if there is sufficient sample text. Because he's been proflic as Magic Hat in the last few days that won't be an issue. Assuming City have issued a C&D letter then he would be in deep shit. They could seek an injunction to stop him spewing out his continous stream of bile. More likely they just consider him an irritant ie of no consequence to anyone. When all this is over how will he fill the void in his life ? He may become the journalistic equivalent of the Japanese soldier who carried on fighting for 30 years after WW2 ended. Alternatively, he may be funded by someone at war with the UAE or as someone mentioned, he's hoping to sell a book one day. I can just see huge queues outside Waterstones waiting for signed copies of a racist book full of hacked emails, spreadsheets and PL regulations.
Check out the engagement on Nicks twitter page for non City related stories.

His post about travelling 1000 miles to Wembley with a link to his substack article - 8 likes and no retweets from his 148,000 followers.

Desperate measures required for desperate times !
 
I was quite active in this thread about 2000 pages back, but long since checked out from it. I did think, by what's been in the media, that there hadn't been any major developments for quite a while. Dropping back in at this late stage, I'm not so sure.

Who is Magic Hat?

Who is Magic Hat?

Nick Harris / Sporting Intel
 
Why is he called Magic Hat, and what has he done? Just writing the same old smears as the majority of the press, or something bigger?
Just re-spinning the Der Spiegel emails again. It was probably planned for this week in case we qualified for the ECL final. He's advised, however personally he has absolutely NO qualifications or expertise whatsoever in any of the following:-

Law - None
Contract Law - None
Accountancy - None
Commerce - None
Forensic Accountancy - None
Finance - None
Business - None
Auditing - None

His only known qualification was in African "studies".
 
Magic Hat = Nick Harris. There is no doubt about it.

Harris has created this alter ego to remind the footballing world of the atrocities committed by City. He then makes up a fictitious dialogue to make everyone think Magic Hat is a North American college student that follows soccer. Having created this false impression, Harris insults his created character to such an extent that they become estranged from each other, leaving Magic Hat to continue Harris's ongoing campaign against City in anonymity.

Well just as Harris accuses Magic Hat of betraying his nationality, Harris himself makes a number of errors that indicate he is Magic Hat.

We have already looked at their shared vocabulary and common use of a number of uncommon words. There is also their common use of arsehole, when, as pointed out on here an American would most likely use asshole.

Further evidence that Harris and Magic Hat both posted from the same time zone can be found in the chat thread Harris asked to be published.

The excerpt here is from Magic Hat's chat. The blue chats show Magic Hat's own time stamps. The white chats are Harris's, with the time stamps for when they were received by Magic Hat. Harris, trying to create the false impression Magic Hat is in America, estimates the local time for him is 5pm or 6pm - five or six hours behind UK time. This means Harris must be five or six hours in front of where he thinks Magic Hat is. So Harris's actual time is 11pm, which is the same time zone as Magic Hat.

Magic Hat also stated in the chat that he discussed City's charges with people at the footy. This can only mean whilst attending games in England. Americans do not use the word footy?

So, there is a very strong likelihood that Harris and Magic Hat are both in the same time zone, here in the UK. Their chats have been between these times:

11:29pm to 01:08am
09:59pm to 10:09pm
08:53pm to 08:58pm
10:10pm to 11:54pm
12:27am to 02:27am

We know Harris is often awake in the early hours of the morning posting his online ravings, but are these really the kind of hours you would have an online chat with a complete stranger? I don't think so.

Therefore, on the balance of probabilities, which is sufficient for this little study, I find that Nick Harris is Magic Hat.

Of course, as a City fan, I would want City to win this case once and for all to protect the reputation of the club I care about.

But I would rather us win this case just to witness the sheer meltdown in Twitter, RedCafe and RAWK. Imagine the crying faces of our old friends Nick Harris, Miguel Delaney, Javier Tebas, and especially our beloved Mr Tariq Panja.

Mass Seppuku or Hara-kiri to follow.
We live in hope!

The other pointer is that Harris was at Wembley on Sunday, watching Southampton. So no posts from him until later on that night when he got back home presumably. Funnily enough there were no posts from Magic Hat until late on Sunday night either.

I follow @projectriver on twitter and when he advertised the podcast of himself and nut job harris discussing the charges, I listened and then replied to Steffan saying what a great listen it was and how I enjoyed that he put harris back in his box
I didn't copy harris in and for some reason there were tweets appearing on my timeline where I was blocked
Yip, harris blocked me even though I'd had no interaction with his account and I certainly had no interest in his tweets
He must have sat there reading the replies to Steffan and gone on a blocking rampage
He’s done this for a while now. I got blocked under similar circumstances, only difference being I copied him in and called him a Grade A **** Muppet….

Next thing i know, blocked. YCMIU ;)

No one has, as far as I'm aware, said he's American apart from Stefan taking a wild stab in the dark.
