I think it is arbitration

Rule X in the Premier League Handbook 22/23 states that it will be done in accordance with the Abitration Act 1996

This is section W, not section X.

APT is a section X arbitration.

Thought fines for non-cooperation was a certainty anyway?

Almost a given due to our refusal to provide commercially sensitive information the like of which was previously leaked to our rivals.

Good faith my arsevin parsley.

I just noticed this in the PL Handbook. I wonder if City can call out the red cartel and all their sniping about us, for breaching the charter?

 

[halfcenturyup]

Quite apart from the fact that they have enough to be getting on with for the time being in any event, just how many combinations of the possible verdicts on those 130 charges do you think the panel wanted to be addressed on in the event that the League proved some of its charges but not all?

There is no way they could address liability and then reconvene to hear arguments on sanctions without publishing the liability verdict?

Some wrong'uns on here.

Tea is a drink that can be taken anytime of day.

Tea drink is a brew ;) tea is food and a tee is something people in silly trousers use, tee off starts a hockey game, got it down to a tee means you do something well.

I certainly oh am not getting carried away - there’s too much at stake to be certain about anything at the moment - but for me this is another soft signal and the sort of headline we haven’t seen until this last week or two.

Hopefully Mullock wants to say something but can’t say something so is rehashing old news with a positive spin.

I've been liasing with the GMC authorities re the post announcement parade doon Deansgate with Kool Hand and Lord David riding in an open top Pope Mobile.

Kool Hand has given me two dates, and confirmed that his jet has filed a flight path from WDC,where he's meeting Trumpington, to Barton International.

You'll all understand the imperative for confidentiality, so I'll demure from revealing the date on here but will up date you all in due course.

Mario has been booked to drive the PopeMobile with Craig Bellamy & Carlito hitting golf shots from the roof.

Should be fun eh .

Keep you posted !!

The hint is ?

He said that he is obviously not worried about the case given the signing of his new 9.5 year contract.

Bacon bagels?

If you're paying, then why not.

i think we'll all be a little disappointed if we're not completely exonerated.
yet simultaneously delighted if we're only guilty on the non-cooperation parts.

as an example, i was a little disappointed with united scoring in the 6-1 thrashing, yet simultaneously delighted.

It was their goal at 0-3 that gave them hope and made Fergie go more attacking. If it wasn’t for that goal the 1-6 doesn’t happen.

And if the 1-6 doesn’t happen we don’t win the league on goal difference.

Ferguson’s mistake in that game was pivitol in our clubs history.

Lovely stuff

I just found it comforting that the papers have decided to rehash the old news of Erling’s contract today and do so with a positive spin re: the charges.

Doesn’t mean anything concrete of course, but we never ever got anything even remotely entertaining the possibility of exoneration until about a week or two ago.
And I believe, but do not know, that Mullock is seen as a City-friendly journalist so I’m putting two and two together and getting minus 115/130

 

[Stoned Rose]

I defintely know that some people know already, I just can't say who they are as I don't know.

All I DO know is, we're going to find out VERY soon, or sometime later, could be one of the two. The news is going to be VERY favourable to one group and DEVASTATING to another group, as to which I cannot say right now, for obvious reasons.

So keep the faith Blues, or lose it, it depends which.

First sentence is incredible.

Tbf, it's a new quote from Erling, so not technically rehashing old news.
