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

[Braggster]

Unanimity in legal circles ffs. **** is a fucking fraud.

Hahaha my goodness, what an absolute clown. Just totally reveals he doesn't know what he is talking about, at all.

Also, "never known" such unanimity in legal circles with football, as if he has frequently sounded out a large sample size of football lawyers on a wide range of matters.

What a ****.

 

[BerkshireBlue]

I don't - the statute of limitations applies in both. The PL rules are governed by UK law. The point was the sensationalist idea that City were protected by time-barring at CAS but the PL investigation doesn't have that.

that is not what the journalist has written. Go and check

 

[The blue phantom]

It's proper deep rooted with Roan his distain for our club. I actually thought he maybe more positive about us since our fabulous achievements, But sadly not. The ban we gave him from our stadium for the hit job on Vieira hit him hard. I know it's now been lifted but him and Stone really are a pair of fuckin Parasites which should be absolutely nowhere near any part of our Campus. Let the bastards report from the corner of Asda again, permanently.

Mad there were some on here who couldn’t see this.

It's a shocking piece of journalism, albeit without Stone's implied sarcasm. I've taken to reading articles about City without looking at the writer until the end and it is telling that you can always predict the pieces by Roan and Stone.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Wonder what all those cunts in the press who suddenly became legal experts will have to say about that.

Carsley must be sacked….

Too close to the campus that, they can report from Ten Acres Lane.

I think his point is not that we haven’t been charged with that - because we have - but why would City feel the need to file inaccurate accounts when there was no FFP in place. Just like why would City hide a couple of million quid a year of Mancini’s contract at a time when we’d just spent £17m on a crock from Blackburn, all that £17m went through the books, and we were posting losses north of £100m.

I guess what he, and I, are trying to say is that we know we’ve been charged with filing inaccurate accounts but it makes no logical sense to have done that.

I might be a bit thick but when we have a tradesman do a job I ask for a cash price he keeps it all we don't get a receipt,
Why if we were doing anything underhand with Mancini was it anywhere near the books surly it would of been a bag of cash from an unknown source?

I wonder if the offer by Arsenal to draw up new rules, and the influence generally of the red cartel (and others) might open up a second front.

Is anyone from the red cartel effectively a shadow director of the PL?

What is a shadow director? Although not appointed to the board of directors, a shadow director still influences the company’s strategy.

Martin Samuel fingered the PL Financial Control Cttee members - asked earlier - who are these shills? (Dharmash Mistry is the chair - Arsenal Box holder)

Fingering members of the committee?
Now that does take me back…

 

[halfcenturyup]

Sorry yes I'm talking about ffp. My question is why would City need to file false accounts between 2009 and 2014, when there's no rules to break?

:) That, detective, is the right question.

(One of the right questions)

Whilst I understand the Master must go campaign and he should. There needs to be a investigation into the cartel and how much control they have in the pl.
Fans need to do how this cartel intended to control the game for their own self being.
I'm sure this will than lead on to how they influence effect the refs and VAR.

The pl is corrupt

Tolmie has just alluded to this on Twitter, but wonder whether the announcement from DP ports in the last couple of days has anything to do with what is going on. Probably not but interesting all the same.

There has to be a thorough investigation & clear out from the Premier league & clubs. I firmly believe this should be a criminal investigation.

Drain the swamp City.

Public enquiry.

Subpoenae all key officials from PL & all clubs along with media turds.

If you take into account that taggart had refs, pigmol and the fa in his pocket way back and you look at how they are treated today then there is huge corruption going on.
Thing is it doesn't come as a shock anymore as it's standard.

 

[Rammy Blue]

You know what, I was lay here in the night, aching knee doing my brains in, and as usual on bluemoon to pass the time, and it started me thinking.

Why do so many clubs align themselves with the red cartel? Now, obviously before people jump in with the usual responses, take a minute and think. If you class it as taking our side or theirs, any club who sits on the red side is effectively accepting mediocrity for ever. Just be an also ran, be happy to stay in the Prem, no aspiration whatsoever that at some point there may be that crack in the door, an investor who wants to pump some money in and take the club to greater heights etc. What a fucking weird mentality. Surely these clubs top brass can see the wood from the trees, that the red cartel don’t give a fuck about any of them, they just want them to know their place, do your best and be a feeder club for us when we want to plunder your best talents.

Why not align with us? I’ve enjoyed the last 15 or so years so much, been a blue for 53 years, seen everything you could ever wish to see, I’d have no problem whatsoever to see another club rise like a phoenix and have their time in the sun.

Anyway, that’s my musings on this Saturday morning, I’ll get back to feeling sorry for myself and wanting to saw my leg off, lol.

They’ve had that control since 1992, who were the clubs that initially pushed for the Premier League? Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool, Everton and United, they all got 15 percent of a tv deal whilst the likes of City, Oldham, Chelsea etc got 10 percent. Add to that Spurs’ owner Alan Sugar making a shit ton of money moving Amstrad receivers for Sky Tv.

It was set up for their benefit and no one else’s, Abramovich didn’t upset their monopoly of the Champions League spaces. Mansour suddenly made the numbers in that equation not work so they pushed for FFP. The Premier League has been historically set up for certain clubs interests which is why they are pathetically trying to remove City from the field of play because they have no answer to us on how to run their football clubs better than City.

The league is at a crossroads does it continue on a path of self destruction protecting the two most historical successful clubs in English football? Or does it reform and realise that football has moved on from them?

 

[Rory Bluelow]

It’s “big news” to us. In a world of highly incendiary global conflict and an impending US election and other such trans-national import, it’s chicken feed. And rightly so.

They have an entire sports section which doesn’t cover US Election etc. It’s a huge sporting issue - the BBC sports people are cunts and stuffed with United fan boys like Stone.

American owners aren't bothered to much about winning. To them it's about a closed shop no relegation and guaranteed income. So the non cartel American owned clubs are happy with the guaranteed income they can take out of the game
