Article from this is anfield websiteAs far as I know the 'hack' was just City not removing the permissions for old employees. They logged in using their old credentials from when they were employed by City. This is a pretty embarrassing security oversight by us imo and probably why we were happy to settle for a low amount. If they had hired some shady hacker to access our database then I'm sure we would have taken it further.
Yeah that was this morningThere is an article today that City will be expelled from all compeitions when found guilty !
They don't want to relegate us, they just want to bury us alive
Quite a few find themselves at the front of the ticket queue for the ‘glamour’ fixtures.How many you tubers go to the games.
Plus every director has remained on the board including some with no skin plus unequivocal witness evidence at CAS from all sorts of peopleAnd every single sponsor implicated has continued to conceal and lie is a big call? Plus questioning the accountants and that other the likes of Etihad as well?

The IC would have read the written openings which will refer them to the parties’ key documents and positions. They will be taken through the documents in more detail through the hearing.Would the IC members really see all the evidence from both sides before the hearing, surely that’s the purpose of the hearing. I can imagine the PL legal team telling the PL that on the basis of the evidence it’s what they believe
All pretty unlikely especially before any cross examination which won’t conclude for some time. Right now the best the sides will have is an impression of each ICs members general view. It’s really very very early in a hearing like thisI guess it's possible that the 3-man commission had looked at the evidence and come back with the view that it would be a 10 or even 12-point deduction based on the evidence they'd seen so far. And that to save the huge expense of a 3-month hearing, and probably an appeal, the PL were prepared to settle for less, in order to avoid the expense.
It's also possible that they were told that it was the IC's view that it was only 50/50 that they'd land the main allegations, and they wanted to try to get a result without that uncertainty, and one that satisfied the cartel as well.
It could also be possible that they did this entirely off their own bat, having discussed with the cartel what they'd consider the minimum adequate outcome.
We don't know, and we'll only know when the IC makes its findings known.
Was just about to post this. Fucking unbelievable! They want us wiped off the map.destroyed and gone for ever while the scum media in this country cheer them on!There is an article today that City will be expelled from all compeitions when found guilty !

Sporting Director Michael Edwards and two former City scouts Dave Fallows and Julian Ward, who had made the move over to Anfield the year before the settlement was reached in September 2013, are the people in question alleged to have used the login details of a City scout to gain access to the system.Article from this is anfield website

I'm sure he will be allowed to claim reasonable expensesWell that’s not fair on the lad.
Butties cost £13 a pop down there, hope he’s took a packed lunch.
Surely the IC will have all read everything beforehand?The IC would have read the written openings which will refer them to the parties’ key documents and positions. They will be taken through the documents in more detail through the hearing.
Doubt it. Documents won’t come alive until pored over in opening, cross examination and then in closing anyway. And the overall bundle will be huge so no chance they will have flicked through the whole of thatSurely the IC will have all read everything beforehand?
And if so, be remunerated for that time.
The club may 'conditionally' concede the non cooperation charge, on the basis of lack of trust following all the leaks from football authorities during recent years.no there hands are tied with non cooperation, quite sure its a fine only
The plan has always been to DESTROY us !!Yeah that was this morning
This afternoon/ evening we’re being told the agents and representatives are lining up moves for players when we’re thrown out of the premier league
This bullshit is after 4 days of the hearing

It’s a reasonable enough question, and didn’t really deserve some of the (now deleted) sarky responses tbh. Not actually sure of the answer myself, but hopefully someone else with more knowledge can answer it.Apologies if it’s a stupid question, but on the more serious allegations (I.e sponsorship) is there any middle ground or is it simply we did it or we didn’t? Basically, is it either a huge punishment or no punishment…or could they decide on a smaller punishment for a ‘technical’ breach or something like that?
