PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[chesterbells]

Selling the women's team back to yourself is dodgy as fuck. Imagine if we'd had done that.

Well if there’s no comeback on Chelsea then maybe we should.

 

[BillyShears]

Nice one. BTW Couch Sports bar in Bairro Alto, Lisbon is a great place to watch the footy.

Wicked thank you.

You'd just know though there would be a different unforseen rule for us.

 

[BillyShears]

Same as the rest of us.

Don't do yourself down like that mate. You're clearly one of the more erudite and knowledgeable posters on the forum.

Why don't we do it every season?

I've got eight cans of Stella, I'll give myself £15 to buy the Stella for myself, then sell it to myself, as long as I don't drink it, I'm financially set for life.

mcfc lads on The Overlap today.

Ipswich fan basically saying it will be unfair if they get relegated if we are guilty, but not judgement made this season.

Who asked her to butt in every two minutes.
They all have us guilty there anyway.

FFS, it's a feeding frenzy.
In what world does a team with <20pts not deserve to be relegated?!

Make it Red Stripe and I’m in.

I vaguely remember clubs selling their stadia and leasing them back as a way of evading financial regs but this was frowned on and clubs got done for it.

It's a world where if we get a big enough points deduction the team currently third bottom will be fourth bottom.

It's irrelevant if we are innocent it's just what they need to survive.

I won't be watching this biased shite.

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

When did our charges become all about fucking Ipswich. Rabbiting on there about 2009 and where Ipswich were. Who gives a fuck.

Why when the ipswich fan was basically calling us guilty didnt scholes or carragher pull her up about it by saying there isnt a verdict yet.? Left it to the city fan

I had a scouse non match going idiot on the hook yesterday when he confidently told me how the scouse and rags did things the right way and that City didn't.

I asked him to explain that and he couldn't so I told him straight up that he didn't know what he was talking about and that he was THE useful idiot. Wife not happy again but she shouldn't have family and friends who are rude disrespectful rude cunts.

That's my fucking job.

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

They still liable doesn't matter they have new owners

Yes. The precedent here is the case of 2007 concerning third party ownership of Tevez, then of West Ham. The club had changed ownership and the new owners reported the problem with Tevez to the PL. Interestingly a points deduction was precluded by PL rules but the club was guilty of the "offence" and in the end they were fined and had to pay financial compensation to Sheffield United who had been regulated as a result of WHU's win at OT on the last day when Tevez scored the only goal.

 

[madloaf]

I'm doing my bit to get this over 10000 by the time the judgement is released. Are you doing yours?

Even if Franny Lee still owned us, Ipswich would be still getting relegated this season.

There is a cheap lawyer ad in here somewhere.

Is your club shitvand getting relegated, good call sol goodman and we can blame city.

Does your club stadium roof leak, good call sol goodman and we can blame city.

Did your club owner get sanctioned for being a Russian gangster, good call sol goodman and we can blame city.

Is your star right back leaving to go to Madrid, good call sol goodman and we can blame city.

Fucking tiresome.

Richard Keys thinks we have "got away" with it as a "fudge"

Keys thinks City have "gotten away" with it as a "fudge" in his blog that's doing the circuit now.
