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

[stonerblue]

Fuck that.

When you smack your opponent and they wobble you steam in a fuck them up as badly as you can.

Especially when they’re cheating cunts.

All of that.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

That Vicky Gomersall on Sky Sports is a sly cow.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

This beaky presenter!
She's absolutely devastated.

 

[Elbow beards]

So is this the end of football, as all the hacks have been predicting?
Thought not.

 

[paulchapo]

I'm not sure how much difference it makes in the long run but I will say it does make sense that clubs should pay interest on shareholder loans.

It will make a huge difference if I'm reading it correctly. Arsenal and a fair few other clubs with zero interest shareholder loans will fail whatever form of ffp we're now operating with. That means a possible points deduction and fine, not to mention going into the red. So basically fucked.

 

[domalino]

'relatively narrow success' lol what a complete tool that bloke is

We'll see how narrow it is when the damages are awarded.

We've been deprived of 3 sponsorships because the PL broke their own rules and acted unfairly. That's not going to be waved away, and the numbers involved are likely to be sizeable.

It's going to be hard for people like Tariq to pretend this is minor when the club is awarded 8 figure compensation, the rules that caused the arbitration are thrown out, and our biggest rivals have been adjudged to be getting unfair funding via their owners which will cost them £30m+ a year going forwards.

Vicky Gomersall is a Liverpool supporter. No wonder she is a tad bitter.

Top read that. I found myself thinking that earlier, what happens next. If the PL amend the rules as recommended, who votes those through. Otherwise, it is scrap them, or try something altogether new. What happens in the meantime.

On sky?.She's one horrible scouse loving ****.

*Edit.

It's not Martin Samuel but worth reading.

Thanks. This the main Times story but Samuel has also done a commentary piece. Could you post this too, ta.

 

[I'msingingingtheblues]

Martin Samuel doesn't hold back - thank God there's one decent, objective and insightful journalist out there:

Seismic verdict for football that leaves financial rules in tatters

The Premier League overplayed its hand and now the whole concept of PSR is in the bin. Man City’s legal victory could have huge consequences for some clubs

I think a lot of the UEFA leaks were misinformation designed to damage City's reputation. On the eve of the CAS decision for example a false story was leaked to The Times saying City faced draconian punishment. The opposite was the truth. It has been a smear campaign from day one by both UEFA and more recently the PL. The English media have been complicit since day one. They know where the smear stories are coming from but have chosen to promote this information because of narrow self interest.

In a domestic setting, I think it's referred to as 'gaslighting'. Well, let's hope we light up the fuckers now!

It’s easy to decide who’s won. Which side was on the right side of the law & which wasn’t.

The premier league are acting like Peter Sutcliffe. Found guilty of multiple murders but cleared of kerb crawling.

There’s a handful of journalists and media who have burned all bridges with City in their desperate hope that we are the big bad wolf they have painted us as for the last few years.
They have relied on this for clicks and engagements and to keep a wage coming in.
Now there’s light at the end of the tunnel and the reality is hitting that we might actually be cleared of everything they’ve decided to double down and try and eek out the last of their stories knowing that before long they will all be a laughing stock.

Fuck’em all the cunts.

 

[MaineRoadMemories]

Oh please, please let this come to pass and how delightful that will be when the day of reckoning comes for that shower of US owned shite.

Pass me the letterheaded paper to write to them when there is a fire sale and we can offer to take the 'camera man' Odegaard and that inappropriately named mutt WIN for starters.....

 

[Matt Diablo]

Interestingly apparantly

Arsend/ rags/ scuz scous/ hammers/ bretford/ bournmouth/ fulum and wolves ALL gave evidence in favour of epl. Fuk having a slight soft spot for hammers!

 

[Stoned Rose]

never trust Tariq….

Proven himself to be the biggest KFA in football and should be completely banned as a “source” on here moving forward.

 

[Gundoggin]

That will happen after the collapse of the 115.

Let’s hope so !

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

This beaky presenter!
She's absolutely devastated.

She could smoke in the shower with a hooter like that.

 

[bluwes]

Probably a Dip/ Rag/ Arse Red shirt cartel supporter.

He’s quoting what the Premier League are actually saying . They’re trying to make out what we won is not a big deal

 

[super_city_si]

Reading the BBC summary of it you'd think we lost.
