City launch legal action against the Premier League | Club & PL reach settlement | Proceedings dropped (p1147)

[Zabbasbeard]

I’d imagine there’ll be more to follow soon. Wednesday Week perhaps.
Mind you, I’m looking forward with relish, as Here Comes The Summer.
It’s Going To Happen, whatever I suppose.
Good job Pannick said to Khaldoon “You’ve Got My Number” last time he saw him……

This is great, good to see the club standing up and flexing it's muscles, and as it summer, we need excitement and need it bad!

Go for the jugular and then squeeze harder CTID

Suspect that during the course of this City will be revealing evidence that will shine a light on our opponents business practices and attempts to stifle us.

Great point. We can’t really do that with the “115” case as it’s tantamount to whataboutery but in this instance it’s highly relevant.

 

[argyle]

please someone break it down really really simply. this good or bad for us regarding 115

glass half empty. I’m thinking the case of the 115 charges ain’t going well at all and city are trying to sling some mud about the place. If it was going well why would we rock the boat.

Not a good sign for me, sounds like it's a last gasp attempt to throw off a bad outcome from the 115

Nothing to do with 115 charges.

It's a seperate issue to do with limiting Newcastles and our own sponsorship deals.

Also I've found Nick Harris' other accounts.

Is there a link to when scruffy Jim started saying how good we were and the date this case was filed.

Not got time to look at the moment.

 

[Sofiablu]

Am I right in thinking that this case will be heard in open court (as opposed to the 115 case which will be a closed hearing). If so perhaps this gives the club the chance to put into the public domain some of the stuff that’s been flung our way by the cartel and the PL. Interesting times if that’s the case.

The Premier League fucked around and now they've found out

By the time this is all said and done there's going to be a load of 16-21 year olds with enough legal knowledge and jargon to put them through Uni. Can't wait to hear some lads coked off their heads in Mary D's discussing 'defamatory legal charges'.

 

[argyle]

Yep. I’m seeing a real siege mentality from others because of this but all it’s done for me is cause worry - if the club were as confident as they let on about winning the 115 case there wouldn’t be any need for this, surely?

It has nothing to do with the 115 charges. It's a completely seperate issue.

 

[Metal Biker]

BLUEMOON LEGAL EAGLES, ASSEMBLE!!!

 

[plattlanebenches]

I would love to have seen Master’s face when he saw the letter from our solicitors.
“Dear ****, we are going to destroy you. Love City.”

PMSL

 

[richards30]

Must be confident in this otherwise we are gonna look EXTREMELY daft

 

[dadnlad]

snivel and spitty had their say yet

 

[Centurions]

Boom!

And for all those who have been whinging and whining about our PR team not going all out, this will be why. There is so much going on in the background that we will never even hear of, they've been given their directions and have been doing their jobs all along. May you live in interesting times.

 

[Asa's left peg]

I wonder if City are expecting something in particular to come from the 115 charges case, that goes against us. 'Yeah we know you're innocent but we are going to find you guilty anyway' sort of thing?

 

[KS55]

This is great, good to see the club standing up and flexing it's muscles, and as it summer, we need excitement and need it bad!

Yeah, much better than 22 men kicking a pig’s bladder round a field.

 

[Skrastins]

This is, imho, hard to prove

 

[Cobwebcat]

2 separate cases and City suing the PL over this issue has been a strong possibility for months. City told the PL they were considering this and obviously followed through with it after taking advice from their lawyers. If I remember correctly rules were introduced shortly after which said the Directors of the clubs that brought it in could not be sued personally.

Most seem to think City will struggle with this but City must think otherwise or they wouldn’t have bothered.

 

[HelloCity]

‘They are the genuine soap opera club…’

There always has to be some over the top storyline going on. If we’re being honest with ourselves, we all secretly love it.

Admit it to yourself - as you read the article you felt the excitement and tension as this latest angle unfolded haha.

Just waiting for Meghan Markle and the cast of "Suits" to make an appearance.
