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

[manimanc]

Odious club and fan base, imagine taking defeat so badly, it really is the most pathetic response imaginable.

Well what a surprise.

Lowton is a gooner isn't he?

Tarquins are going full mardarse in front of the viewing public, this after Tony Adams cryarsing that nobody can get near us.

Fuck em.

Anyone remember that Arsenal headed letter that circulated about getting the hateful 8 together?

Payback time.

Well City must think they’ve got a very good chance otherwise why even take it on when losing it appears to be potentially quite damaging

Stefan said the final decision won’t be made public.

Unless it’s leaked again. ;-)

I find it very ironic that the likes of liverpool fans who fought against the press that wtote lies about their club can now believe them tooth n nail - but then again they own certain media dont they so they can spin the narratives

Would they believe the Sun if they broke the news that would blow their minds :)

 

[Coatigan]

He said nobody has seen the evidence.

He said in his opinion.

Of course he could be wrong.

But he sounded pretty adamant about it.

TBH, most of what he has said on 115, and now the APT, we’ve agreed with, so I’m quite happy to believe his opinion on the APT part of City’s case against the PL.

He sounded sensible. He is entitled to an opinion, personal and professional. He is entitled to change it too in time, if things change.

Stefan said the final decision won’t be made public.

Unless it’s leaked again. ;-)

I heard him say that, I guess he meant the detailed findings and evidence. The final decision will be obvious surely.

It wouldn’t have been damaging if it hadn’t been leaked. But yes they must believe they have a strong case. To be fair though it seems to me we are only trying to row back the February changes, it has been blown way out of proportion and isn’t that big a deal.

 

[Coatigan]

I see the Telegraph are digging deep tapping right into their innermost hatred

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

So - is it true that united are supporting City in this action ?

I don’t know. It makes sense, but Stefan seems to indicate it may be Newcastle.

It might have been put up already, but does anyone have a list of the teams that voted against the new rule in February?

 

[Bluebeemer]

I hear from 'reliable' media sources that the the Bundesliga has launched an investigation into Bayern Munich's domination and it's APT finance.
Also, coincidently, La Liga has, apparently, instigated legal proceedings against both Real Madrid and Barcelona for receiving state and regional funding for player transfers: so enabling both clubs to dominate the Spanish national league at the expense of all other clubs.

I’m not sticking up for Stefan.

I’m just posting what he thought and said on the APT part of the case.

As I’ve stated, he could be wrong.

Obvious City and their Barristers, Lawyers, etc, think they have a winnable case against the PL regarding APT.

Definitely.

There’s no way that can be kept secret.

Oliver Brown and Sam Wallace leading the charge

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Just for clarity, I was born in Manchester, moved away in my twenties and returned in my sixties. I was a season ticket holder before I left and I’m a season ticket holder now. I think I have a pretty fair affinity to the Club.

Rag.

 

[bernard o'silver]

Ah the blame game.
Now I come to think of it where were City the day the Titanic sank?

Sheffield Wednesday at Hyde Road on Saturday 13th April 1912 , won 4-0 is the nearest date , Titanic was at sea , she sank early hours 15th April

 

[slbsn]

Yes, I'm sure you found it a real blow.

You know for someone as willing to play in the limelight and idolised by so many on here, Stefan leaves an awful lot open to a negative headline and possible out of context quote. Sometimes does more harm than good , but with the right intentions.

Listen if City want to hire me as a spokesman that is one thing. If I am giving a good faith opinion (with caveats) I will say what I want to say. Cheers

 

[Scaley]

So in a nutshell will we bring a end to the Premier league as we know it now.

 

[Damanino]

I hope the big leak from yesterday despite all the confidentiality rules causes lot of headache for PL before the hearing starts next week.
Our lawyers need to start with questioning it and the media backlash with the clear one sided spin on it. and then provide all the proof how these rules are anti-competetive and also against the law.

Yeah same, I'm just saying, I see his point (a couple here suggested similar themselves, based purely on how people read what is available). And, it is his opinion which he is entitled to.

 

[Bluebeemer]

Another 'hot news' item just in - Red Bull Racing has had it's F1 cars confiscated by the governing body FIA, for being TOO successful!
Yep, City became TOO successful - can't have that. That was City's big mistake, should have been happy with just being a mid table Manchester club!

I think if he ever goes fan > expert he destroys the all the credibility he’s built up over the last months. Non-blues will simply turn away.
