PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

It's a thing for routine cases. They never had any chance of getting a sanction (if any) on the City case appealed by the end of this season.

He said applied, not appealed. Different consequences. When is the deadline for any possible sanction to apply to this season rather than the next?

Unless I misunderstood.

That rule would not survive a challenge. “You can appeal provided you do it by yesterday”.

Hopefully they aren't going to try and pull what we did to UEFA back on us here:
Some parts we are found guilty on, and we get 24 hours to appeal. Meaning we have just 24 hours to go through and review everything and reset our foundation.
Hopefully for them, meaning it will be less rigorously tested than it might have been.

This is assuming we are found guilty of any of the charges.

And that our legal dept haven't recognised this potential situation, and copiously prepped for such and eventuality.

And that such review and appeal would take long at all to lodge, considering what must be our forensic knowledge of the case by now.

Ignore me, just indulging in a bit of Monday morning conjectorial exploration...

No way three KC’s are putting their name to a process that would be overturned in the high court. There must be a fair and reasonable process of appeal. Not that I’m hoping we will need one.

Yes, I assumed any sanction wouldn't be applied until it was appealed. Possibly wrongly, I suppose.

But, if it's true the hearing is first considering liability without sanction, then there would have to be a second hearing on sanctions (if required). I am struggling to see how they could do that before this season is closed with the publication the new rulebook for next season (normally after the June meeting isn't it?).

Especially if the liability decision can be appealed for yet another hearing and, possibly, in the worst case a subsequent tribunal.

Anyway, no-one really knows anything, do they .... we just have to be patient and wait.

The club and the PL know what's been decided - beggars belief that they don't.
