PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[77lost by a point]

I get it at work everyday from the dips, Scouse and arseholes. Even a couple of Forest fans have jumped onto it. I'm getting tired of defending us.

Just tell them " whatever their opinion there's fuckall they can do about it ".

A scouser saying ‘narcissist’ must be translated from Flemish

Or phlegmish

Interesting. Another pointer as to have all this shit is seen abroad (mostly). This is the president of Sporting on Viana coming to us. Not a hint or mention of any impropriety or cheating.

He’s going to one of the most powerful clubs in the world. Something that has never happened in Portugal, a Portuguese manager going to the highest of the highs, and that’s to his credit, but it’s also very much to the credit of how Sporting is seen abroad today. And here in Portugal we often focus too much on the drama, on that soap opera, but abroad, the organised clubs, the winning clubs, look and see a club that has reinvented itself, they see a club that makes a financial profit and they see a club that wins titles and that values its assets. So, obviously, this is the level of excellence at which Sporting is seen abroad. And for us, Sporting, it is very important that Hugo Viana is successful at Manchester City. Very important because that is what we want, to be seen abroad in this way.”

Says a lot about Moureen to the Chavs. :-)

Premier League will not review Saudi Newcastle deal after Bin Salman claims

The Premier League will not review Newcastle’s takeover by Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund after reports of the crown prince’s close involvement

www.theguardian.com

Looks like the PL is taking some ambiguous / contestable messages at face value . Nothing to see here . I guess one costly court case is enough . Might explain why Newcastle have been keeping quiet during the APT stuff ?

Might also be relevant in our defence of the accusations ; witness statements are given more weight than texts / emails both in this latest story and in the APT tribunal ..?

The last sentence shows the thick fuckers didn’t realise the impact of the APT case.

As has been said many times, City play on the world stage. The British press/media aren't relevant to City. The press/media can say the most outlandish things in the hope someone is listening. They market is getting smaller and smaller, once the cartel is broken so are the British press/media.
Just take the pathetic out cry of City's perfect winner on Sunday, yet when arsenal do it using two or three players it's great use of the dark arts lol and eddy should be stronger.

Hang on how can the pl charge one club with doctored emails but not charge another club over REAL text messages ?

"Leaked WhatsApp messages from the former Newcastle minority co-owner Amanda Staveley obtained by the Telegraph", anyone seen how they "obtained" these Whatsapp messages?

Sense at last from the PL instead of wasting more "good" money.

Should have read that the Premier League can't afford another high profile court case after being rinsed by Leicester and Manchester City :)

Perhaps the pl should now stop the case against City and save the clubs more money

So what's everyone thinking at the moment regarding whether the hearing is still taking place? We're into week 6 now and, Arsenal fans on X with vivid imaginations aside, there have been no leaks that I know of. Apart from those photos of our lawyers entering the building on day one, I don't think there's been anything since. Some posters think that the hearing may already have finished as the mooted 10 weeks is an unusually long period of time even for something like this with multiple accusations to work through.

I strongly suspect the day of the release of the judgement findings in this case will see the Internet run out of candles and an official day of mourning announced in scousepool.

Vigils will be held, black armbands will be worn. To hear the lamentation of their women and children (oh sorry that's from somewhere else). Sky sports will come out in sympathy and news reports on a yellow ticker will declare "its not fair". Arsenal will send a condolences letter, on headed notepaper and several other clubs will sign it.

United will release a press briefing saying it had nothing to do with them and theyve sacked tge person responsible weeks ago and any emails to the contrary in evidence should be published knowing they will take strong action against the publishers.

I have a feeling its going to be glorious!

I do wonder why are lawyers were photographed on the first day and haven't been since. Presumably they are still using the same entrance to the building? Or was it a deliberate tactic to exude confidence in our case?

It was 'news' on the first day. It isn't now
