PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

"As I and others have reported previously, the expectation at City has been 'spring', and if that's the case, we're there now... however it would also mean we could be waiting until late June!https://www.manchestereveningnews.c...all-news/man-city-115-premier-league-31306844
In the next 10 days, looks like the media has been briefed. They stopped asking Pep about it in his press conferences
You might as well quote Mystic Meg as the MEN and that article was from March as well.

The media have gone through cycles asking Pep or not, if they had been briefed that it's soon, I'd have thought that would have ramped up the questions. It sometimes feels like the chicken & the egg regarding this, someone posts on here that they've heard something and the media seem to pick up on it and start writing about it again. Or the other way around.

The only thing for sure is that it's closer than it was.

are you sure about that? maybe it was announced as tiny article hidden in the middle of the paper months ago and everyone missed it. in which case its further away than it was. had you considered that?
 
It's been "soon" for at least 2 years now :(

how now is soon?
Well, the twunts at the PL (guided by the Red Cartel), in the media and the tribal interweb-thingy keyboard warriors on every conceivable platform have altogether been telling us we 'Go about things the wrong way' since 2008!

Must get around one day to posting on here just how much I hate every last one of them, especially the Red Filths at both ends of the East Lancs..

As previously reported by The Athletic and others, spring was said to be when City expected news on the outcome of their hearing. Their football correspondent, David Ornstein,
MEN were quoting other media outlets, one of them might have been mystic meg.
 
I was wondering how many of those would still be against City in 2025 too. A reminder of the 9 clubs and whether I think they have the same sentiments.

Arsenal - Yes
Man Utd - Yes (though some would say, this is not a given)
Liverpool - Yes
Tottenham - Yes
Chelsea - Not sure
Leicester - Probably not
Newcastle - No
Burnley - Probably not
Wolves - Not sure.
I think United may support City in any battle. Ratcliffe is no fan of PSR and United are in a desperate financial situation. No one will buy them out if they can't invest serious money in the product. They are struggling for investment. Of course the Glazers don't want to spend their own money. The Rags thought FFP would kill City but now PSR is strangling them. Happy days.

I think the verdict was reached and the report was completed months ago. The report is filed away and everyone has forgot about it.

And we all lived happily ever after.

Your last sentence says it all but perhaps even the Panel have had to adjust things as they go along so that their 2 years has needed extending, a bit like a construction project over running and/or over spending.

Every club will vote in the interests of themselves at that particular time.
