PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Another waste of time post. You say nothing of any purpose on the thread but appear on almost every page. Just show us one thing you've added to the discussion of value. Just one.

I would just ignore this poster if I were you. He clearly wants to believe PB which is fine but going around telling others not to judge an info which is highly unlikely is pure hopium.

This backwards and forwards is a little depressing, frankly. We have two posters who have heard from sources, multiple in one case.

They have both posted on here what they have heard, but neither have said the information comes direct from the horse's mouth (if we assume the panel members and their staff are the only four horsemen of a potential apocalypse). So it's all second hand and the rest of us, who know fuck all, can each calmly assess individually how much credence we place on one or the other.

Personally, on the one hand, Occam's razor tells me it's most likely the club haven't heard yet but, on the other hand, one of the posters is an accountant and one is a lawyer, so naturally the lawyer loses out :)

This business of KFAs attacking a poster for putting up what they have heard in good faith, though, is pretty distasteful, tbh. And not good for the forum in the longer term.

Tbf Occam is a top,top,top,top,top source.

I stand with Halfcentrury.

you have rubbished his post as being impossible. At the very least that puts a very large question mark against his judgement at believing such 'nonsense' and then posting it, at the worst it questions his integrity. Personally, I have always found him to be pretty measured and entirely credible as I have you. Thats why I find it a little sad that this is being played out against a background of popcorn gifs.

It is impossible given what I know. Nothing else I can say
 
To me I believe Stefan not because I think PB is making shit up. But I believe his claim to be very unrealistic, especially with how City have agreed to a delay to help PL find a replacement for Masters. I understand from a diplomatic sense but considering we have been burned so many times by the cartel clubs who are clearly more important to the PL, I doubt we would be fooled again.

I haven't gone after PB at all. Merely that it is wrong and he's been mislead by someone.

Yet again you misquote me. He can claim what he likes. But he's claimed far more than confidence.

I merely decided (mistakenly) to share something I know for sure which precludes that the theory that the decision has been out for months. It has not. Colin (and you) are free to believe whatever you like. For those that want absolute fact, I have supplied it. Again, they can believe it or not. But it is not unfair to say that if Colin is correct, he sits on a massive World exclusive.

Colin's take chimes with how about 50% of this thread's contributors independently assess the position - without the benefit of a club source and based on the extended silence alongside the sensational nature of the charges. I'm at the end of the spectrum that thinks it's blindingly obvious the outcome has been known to both parties for months and that a deal must have been done to delay publication so the PL can get its house in order. Not surprising the PL is briefing no decision has been reached or indeed that City echo that line in the circumstances. Colin's connection is well above the finance dept though I'm pretty sure of that.
 
It’s not worth getting all angry who to believe, let’s just keep on waiting for the verdict then who ever is right can say I told you so.

Probably because it is a favourable outcome for City, that's the only reason for anyone to be thinking (wanting) it to be true.

In reality, it's just not believable.

So Colin’s broke the biggest story in world football and there’s been no leaks of the story in 3 months despite the Panel, City, the Premier League all knowing the outcome, and a recruitment process is underway at the Premier League.

And all of the above directly contradicts Stefan’s source, who I have no idea about, but he seems pretty convinced by.

Sounds legit

The Ghost in The Machine? I think you might be being a little too categorical.

I've visited Minneapolis, I think you're one of those dudes who sell turkey drumsticks the size of a human head to minors at the state fair and promote giant fried corn dogs as a healthy snack.

Let me tell you with absolute clarity here, because this is something I know a thing or two about, within an hour of the commencement of a headhunting exercise for a job like this, the cat would be fully out of the bag and the world's media woul dbe running it.

Definitely trust me on this particular fact.

I havn`t got dementia yet Colin. ;) It was Smokey Robinson and he was fantastic even at 86 years of age he could still put a dance routine together and his voice was still brilliant.
