PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Maybe I'm way off on this one but could it be possible that we've been talking with the prem league for a while and we've admitted our guilt. Some sort of settlement has been agreed which would involve a huge fine and points deduction, but the hearing still has to take place anyway.
It's could be another reason as to why we aren't spending this summer.
I think your opening is spot on, in that you are way off.

How many times does someone have to be so wrong that they just stop thinking and typing.
 
the bottom line is this and i have always said this when HMRC come knocking at the door then ill be worried until then this is nothing more than smoke and mirrors and a media campaign, it is baffling to me that not a single person in the press has picked up that what they are accusing city, a royal family, one of the worlds largest investment vehicles and a country, not to mention multiple pre eminent business people is fraud which last time i checked was a criminal offence, yet not a single criminal charge has been laid or even passed to the relevant authorities, i do wonder why.
You know why.
 
Agree when I look at the 'facts' and who the pl are accusing of fraud, I find it unbelievable that a tinpot Masters and the pl think City are fraudulent. City's board and sponsors are big fish on the world's seas !.
Why would they risk everything for little old City ?
To keep the redshirts happy.

She is cute, but a little old, I think. Surely they can ship some younger ones in?

this is what is hilarious to me, in terms of the deals that these people do city are small fry, the idea that they would risk their reputation just to help city out for a few million the very idea is ludicrous
 
“some successes and some defeats”. Isn’t that just another way of saying a deal has been done with compromises on both sides ?
Possibly but not necessarily so. If we challenged them on points of competition law it may just be that we won some and lost others. If we won some, the PL rules will have to be modified. I doubt we realistically expected to win every point.
 
Serious question. Say we get done and relegated or whatever, the verdict is in January. Would we finish out the season? Or no games until following august where we start in championship? Or how does it work?

We’d win the championship in half a season then rear our ugly, cheating heads back up in the PL next season ;-)

my boss just suggested we get clipped 40 points, mid season. I replied ' bit harsh that, we may struggle to get top 4''..
 
Well its actually a win-win isn't it - being a glory hunter (although first game was in 1972, I only got my S/T in 2003) I've got loads of lower league grounds to tick off if/when we get demoted! So bring it on!

Just guessing here but from what Stefan has said we won't hear the result until near the end of the upcoming season and if it goes against us we'll appeal it.
