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

My personal favourite coverage of the Tribunal decision is from the BBC.

Nearly every other purportedly reputable outlet has not only provided a full analysis immediately as the story broke (i.e. they had it ready in advance of the decision being released to all the clubs), but they indicate that, on balance, this is a win (if not a major one) for City.

But BBC has given it the minor story treatment on the Sport and Football news pages, and it’s barebones blurb attempts to set the narrative that this was not a defeat of the PL’s APT rules and enforcement, and definitely not a victory for City.

The way that you know this is a dubious narrative is that, had it actually been a win for the PL, the story link and image would have been a massive block at the top of both the Sport and Football pages, and the immediate write up would have been an in-depth analysis of all of the ways City failed in our challenge.

PL-captured “journalism” at it’s worst.

That's a shocker to be frank, pathetic
 
Its a big win for City, as youd expect. Theres no way we'd go to court without a strong expectation of some kind of win and any kind of win is a deeply embarrassing moment for the PL. To be told your own rules are unlawful is very damaging. Heads simply have to roll for that.

The spin attempt already though is genuinely hilarious, and you can just see how many morons will eat it up because they're too thick to understand the reality.

the premier league essentially trying to claim a victory because some of the claims were rejected is fooling nobody but the village idiots. unless all claims were rejected, its a damning loss.

Whilst they aren't related in the slightest to the 115 charges, it will be a big boost for us. The optics around city proving the premier league cannot act in an indiscriminate manner or even within the law has to raise a lot of questions and doubt.
 
Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United and Brighton and Hove Albion will be now forever known as the red cartel arseholes and the haemorrhoid clubs hanging onto them.
We should let it be known that we will conduct no business transactions (xfers) with them in the future.
