PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Despite one or two on this forum saying he was actually quite smart, he's always come across as limited in his understanding of many things to me and this backtracking just substantiated that. Throwing in a few big words ala Joey Barton does not make a person intelligent.

He’s a classic bluffer.

The Fordham thing for me will be or should be time barred anyway. Surely the Premier League knew of it way before 2018 (UEFA certainly did) and it's not a fraud situation it's a proper business transaction method. So we'd only need to show they knew about it and then the statute of limitations apply.

I don't think we know enough about the Fordham contracts and how they were fulfilled and paid and accounted for or any other clauses like the underwriting, or about Touré and how his contracts were accounted for, to be able to come to a conclusion on the image rights. We will have yo wait for the findings of the panel, I think.

One thing of which I am certain: these issues will have no effect on the true and fair view given by the accounts (which is all I care about, really) because the numbers just aren't material enough, but there may be some issues around disclosure to the PL. We really can't say based on the little we know, I think.

Seems well researched and sensible but the outcome just seems daft on the financial and governance side of things

My old mate who passed away was a mate of Peter Done I occasionally met him when out for a beer, nice guy Peter. I asked him about Fred paying out and he said "the fucking idiot, its the last time he does that, was clearly not amused cost them a lot of money. He could afford it though

They think clubs should get a share of TV money based on their ranking. I completely agree. And we should award matchpoints not on how many goals but on xG. It's only fair. The idiots

Of course he does. He isn't going to acknowledge someone more knowledgeable than he is. Doesn't mean he doesn't listen and take on board what is said. Most of all be wants to be right in the end, no matter how he gets there. Then he can say "I have been saying this all along".

He seems to have become a lot smarter about a lot of things since @slbsn has been going on Talksport, despite his pathetic growling. Maybe there is some hope for him after all.

He's not become smarter.

He's now in the presence of an intelligent, knowledgeable professional who doesn't need to shout,or use big words, to try and impress DeliverRoo cyclists and UPD Parcel wallahs.

He's pretending not to be publicly affected by Stefans quiet demeanour and expertise.

However, since Stefans appearances, he's been quietly shifting his position for several weeks, as Stefan has been 'educating' him.

His favourite fall back quote now is... "I've been saying this for a long time"

The blokes an insincere charlatan who shouldn't be trusted with a cat.

Bravo Stefan !!
