PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I think the fact we’re in the fixtures and they haven’t been delayed is we are obviously in the pl next season.

Why that is, who knows, cleared? Minor charges only? Genuinely still waiting for the results and are now signposted for next year?
Only way to find out

Fairly sure from what Stefan has said that the result is quite simply not out yet.

Same reason as last season.

Until there’s a decision, things carry on as normal, which includes putting together the fixture list.

If what Tolmie has heard is true, I can't see why there would be "civil war". Surely, the whole point of the exercise has been to establish the truth and see that "justice" is done. If we are cleared, our rivals will surely be overjoyed that any fears they may have had would have proved unfounded. Nev and Carra would be raising a toast to the process and celebrating with a commemorative episode of the Overlap celebrating the greatest teams and manager English football has ever seen.

The accusations & the charges were made in bad faith so it stands to reason they’ll be unhappy when City are cleared & that there maybe ramifications for not treating a fellow member of the premier league fairly.

Is that what he’s saying? I don’t follow him.

Makes sense though.

Exactly, and if there was something in the wind, the fixtures would have been postponed for a little bit I reckon
 
Just a curious thought, if it came out tomorrow that we're massively guilty and they sorted a punishment really quickly, we could potentially start the season on -100 points.

That would be the weirdest season ever. Resting players for the Champions League is one thing, but resting them for the League Cup and the FA cup quite another. Getting players sent off against the cartel for deliberately breaking legs. Not trying against Newcastle and any other team the cartel hate. Blooding kids in the PL all season.

disclaimer: i'm in the we're 100% innocent but might get a minor stich up camp.

I am curious about something. How did United vet Berrada ? Either they didn’t which would be daft. Even though they like others must know it’s very unlikely we did anything major wrong because it would require a level of incompetence of conspiracy from auditors. Funny our detractors don’t mention this.

Or he provided them the sort of proof you would assume he would know longer have access to and wouldn’t be allowed to show anyone.

Or it’s all a conspiracy and everyone knows we are innocent

They will have done rigorous due diligence including anything they could find relating to the charges. The entire stance of United against City, negative leaks etc, has changed since Ratcliffe went there. I believe Ratcliffe, who knows Khaldoon, knows we are innocent.

John Aldridge has the inside track on it all, he probably found the info written on the back of a Coors light beer mat he found in the pub.

I’m in the we’re completely clear and are going to piss every competition we’re in this season camp.
 
What’s the end game here if/when found innocent (or can’t prove we are guilty as it will be spun)

Mass resignations surely expected. Is it likely that we get someone at the seat of the table off the back of this? The premier league could do a hell of a lot worse than Khaldoon having some involvement
 
The Berrada stuff still doesn't mean anything. No result still. More waiting, and that will trigger a load of account (or aggregators) to jump on the bandwagon and predict we'll get an announcement this Friday etc etc. Just like what happened in March
 
there was no question we wouldnt be included in this years fixtures, the deadline has come and gone for any punishment which would have seen us not included for 25/26, 'IF' we were to get a points deduction it would apply 26/27 and if that deadline is crossed it will be 27/28 and so on, the fact we are in this seasons fixtures are not a soft signal of any kind and do not indicate we have won or lost the case

They've already got their scapegoat ready in Masters.

What table? We're already part of the PL.
