PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I'm still not sure what we are supposed to have sports washed in the first place. The overarching theme is that City have cheated their way to being able to buy their success but the numbers just never match that accusation. You'd think with all the spit flying and foaming at the mouth that the top 10 $$ transfers were all City. Are they mad that we have better facilities because of owner investment? We sure as sh#t haven't bought titles, if that was a thing Chelsea and United would be top 2 every season.Screenshot_20240917_130614_Chrome.jpg

"To have the possibility of that being tarnished is really sad (SSN end quote here) but we will see what happens We may find that they are not guilty of these things."

That's because the cartel squeezed another champions league place out of UEFA so they could keep their noses in the trough, when we came along one or more had to miss out that's when the shit hit the fan and what they can't do on the pitch they'll try every trick off it.

Absolutely correct.
Close thread.

Unfortunately, I just don't buy it. I can't even see City trying to claw back legal fees

I genuinely think the club would be happy that it's over and finally able to operate in relative peace

I think there’s a good chance that we’ll be awarded costs, or a decent proportion at least, if we win. The idea that we’re going to start suing all of our detractors is fanciful at best though, as you say.

What on earth is M Ogadon on about?

The Football Leaks material formed the basis of UEFA's action against City, but after finding the club guilty and imposing a two-year Champions League ban, UEFA's decision was then overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) because the alleged offences were "time-barred" by UEFA's five-year statute of limitations.

So many journalists either simply don’t understand the CAS verdict, or deliberately misrepresent it.
 
One of my favourite films is Sleepers & I can’t help but think we’ve allowed it to go this far so that we can expose the corruption. Don’t burst my bubble but if we complained of cartel clubs & the premier league colluding we’d be laughed at. This way we get 12 weeks of KCs framing exactly what we wouldn’t normally get an opportunity to say.

That's fine as long as a not guilty verdict brought an end to all the innuendo.

If it doesn't the club HAS to go all out on the attack and sue for libel and slander.

You are correct, which is unbelievable when they are definitively delivering a message to such a wide range of people - but what’s even more remarkable is that it doesn’t appear to occur to any of them that if true, UEFA misapplied its own rules in a way that is grossly incompetent - and yet that narrative never gets spun, which underscores the real purpose of the reporting.

The PL wanted Everton to pay the legal costs. The cheeky f*ckers.

If the PL lose against City the costs will be paid by the PL and other 19 PL clubs. That won't go down well with the Red Shirt Cartel clubs. :-)

What about legal costs?​

This specific case is six years in the making, so legal fees on both sides are already estimated at tens of millions of pounds before the hearing even starts.

Expect whichever side 'wins' to make a claim for costs.

For context, the Premier League wanted Everton to pay the full £4.9m legal costs of their first PSR six-point deduction case from last season.

Everton's lawyer Celia Rooney told the appeal that those figures were “frankly eye-watering”.

However, an appeal board ruled Everton should pay £1.7m and the Premier League cover the remaining £3.2m legal fees.

Any costs being paid by the Premier League at the end of the City case would have to be spread across the 20 clubs which make up the league.

I hope we wipe the floor with them. Headlines such as relegation isn't good enough if proven guilty is ridiculous.

Hopefully we win and take them for everything.
