PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I’ve never heard of the podcaster Rob Moore until just now and I’m not gonna post a link to the video to give him more clicks.

But in his interview with Le Tissier, in a video posted 2 days ago, Moore said: “What do you think about FFP? Have Man City been at it? They must have broken every rule in the book.”

Add him to the list of cunts.

I wouldn't give him any thought at all, he's a bell end who sells sales masterclasses and property schemes.

I came across a video of him blowing smoke up our backsides, another clickbait cretin whose opinions change like the wind.

But make no mistake here, with so many foreigners owning clubs playing for them and watching in the stands it seems fitting that they are represented by even more foreigners in the media and press who haven't got a clue what our football heritage is.

Apart from all that through, it's all good.

It seems that it's gone a bit flat in here at the moment

I seem to remember it was very much like this before the CAS verdict, the media ramping up the opinion that we’d lost the case and we’re going to get hammered, so much so that nobody could believe that, apart from the non-cooperation charge, we were cleared of all the other charges.

Anybody remember Warnock on SSN, telling the world of our guilt, only for the presenter to tell him that it was only the non-cooperation we were done for? Took him a good 30 minutes for it to sink in as he picked his jaw up from the ground.

PL rules basically say we have to provide whatever they ask for. One of the few instances where a company is required to help its accuser find it guilty. No fifth amendment here.
In the current case, I assume City will say the PL just went on a massive fishing expedition and it became so onerous that we called a halt.
CAS reduced our fine because of poor practice by UEFA in leaking stuff.
I expect the panel to rule in favour of the PL.

Not so sure. We don't know what the non-cooperation relates to. They can't just ask anything, I think.

Any PL request has to be.... "in exercise of its power of inquiry" into a "suspected breach". And then only from the club, manager, player or official.

They could ask the club to provide information from third parties but they have no right to it. Even when they changed the guidance (in the middle of the investigation, no less) the requirement was only to provide third party information "if able to do so".

So it's difficult to say, I think. I still have in my mind that the non-cooperation relates just to third party information in which case the club has more of an argument against the allegation. But I accept I am probably the only one that thinks that, so I suppose it's more likely the panel will err on the side of the PL for procedural reasons, like CAS did.

A couple of points on CAS. Iirc, they didn't reduce the fine to 10 million for non-cooperation, because UEFA never said what the original fine was for. They imposed what they thought was a reasonable sanction for the offence. And I don't think they mentioned any leaks as a mitigation, did they?

Anyway, could all be bollocks, as always :)
 
I bought a champagne that I saw in the store which was wrapped in sky blue colours. I'll open it after we're cleared from the charges. Should be in a month or two, right? Let's gooo!

I'm presuming he's just referring to the non co-operation charges

Could the club accept that we are guilty of the non-cooperation charges but seeing as we're not guilty of the serious charges... which have caused us huge reputational damage, stunted our growth, prevented us signing lucrative sponsorship deals etc etc..... we'll settle for NO punishment... otherwise we'll seek damages

Warnock should have been sued there and then, he was proper on the verge of scriking then said clear as day “Everbody knows they’ve cheated!”
