PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[mcfcphil]

There's already fucking mayhem and has been since they announced the charges. What's another week, two, five etc.

More a case of people will take advantage of the vacuum of proper analysis.

It could be people taking liberties with interpretation to further their message (ie, both the PL and City claiming victory).

It will also be the case the media will be desperate for analysis and will approach ‘experts’ with very little expertise if people like Stefan prefer to wait until they have fully digested the ruling before sharing a considered position.

So you’ll have two sides claiming victory and the media awash with inadequate expert analysis.

Mayhem.

Unavoidable. CIty's own legal team with all their understanding of their pleaded case and the submissions will still take some days to process and evaluate. So from a standing start, it is impossible for it to be any other way. Needs a few reads to digest too.

nick harris and miguel delooney will read one sentence and understand the lot or least thats what theyll tell anyone deluded enough to listen to them

Buckle up.

Sounds legit tbh, I would expect Esteemed Kompany / @twosips to have got an invite too?

They probably sent a generic email to a few Blues and a few rivals.

Hotels and music venues are nothing to do with football, our stadium should be a shrine to football not a theme park for tourists to have a day out in a Disneywonderland.

That ship has already sailed and the Disneyland tour is docked firmly in the bay.

If that is true, that doesn't sound good at all. The first bit of rumour in a long time that has had me feeling momentarily worried.

Why, may I ask was you only momentarily worried.? Just seen your reply to other Bluemooners so no need to go over old ground.

All being well and us getting a good result, that lot will be back shouting about sportswashing within a week.

Looks that way mate, in a decade or so you'll be laughed out for supporting just one club, anachronistic and quirky.

Some people are walking into the light as it burns their faces off :)

 

[mattcity5]

I did say that some fans will like it mate but I see it as the death of football or the start of it, special super tunnel clubs and 4 star hotels whilst other less important fans can't even sit with their friends and relatives.

IF we do ever end up shit again our shiny complex will look like the fairground in Zombieland.

It certainly isn't the start - it started when balance sheets and accounting became as important as what happens on the pitch.

But Matt, you've got to be happy we have acquired a couple more clubs to carve into the bedstead and moved people from the seats they had to accommodate better heeled folk?

Are you one of those ungrateful buggers like I am ?

 

[terraloon]

How do YOU know that?

Which bit ?

Hopefully they're quick readers.:)

I actually love that we're doing all of it as it shows how much we want to dominate for years to come.

I do hate though that it feels like we 'have' to do it, to maximise revenue, advertising, publicity and anything else we can think of.

All those trophies didn't come cheap.

If only it looked like they were won for us ehh ;-)

I have never liked theme parks, and when companies do things that look like they are for your benefit when in reality they just aren't.

 

[train man]

I wonder if Room 115 will be the Honeymoon Suite?

or the equivalent of the Sid and Nancy room at the Chelsea Hotel in NY..?

Your not wrong but money has Everything to do with football, keep up.

Genuine question
Are there any city fans that work in the media I’m talking mainly news articles online or newspapers not the likes of wedderburn etc

It is a very good question pal. I only know of Simon Mullock currently.
