PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Marvin.]

Or is it possible that deliberations were placed on hold pending the October hearing of the connected APT case?

 

[Tevez City]

Wake me there is positive news.

RIP

 

[Chris in London]

Is it possible that both parties have the result and the appeal (from whoever lost) is being heard in secrecy, Then when the verdict is announced it will be final and draw a line.

No

So why are Newcastle not spending big then if it’s dead?

I didn't mean this minute. Long term

Does Ian Thompstone have a brother called Steve?

No idea but I do know I was at the game Ian played his only game and scored his only goal and then being chased by Boro . Vaguely remember it might have been FA Cuo semi final day too.

It’s become very very draining now this whole saga

Lost 2-1,and yes it was semi-final day.

It’s become very very draining

A mix of human hair, carrot peelings and some congealed fat makes an excellent makeshift plug for any kitchen sink.

We were given assurances we’re innocent, and that we hold irrefutable evidence to support that position.

We were not given assurances that the panel would consequently find us either guilty or innocent.

That part is out of our control.

Remember - we were found guilty and banned from European football for two years by UEFA based on no evidence whatsoever (as CAS confirmed) - so the fact of innocence, and being found so by the panel are not one and the same.

In that context - my reaction would be based on how the Club responded to a guilty verdict.

If they accept, and it’s proven their assurances on our innocence were false - I’d be fucking furious.

If they respond in the strongest of terms that they reject the findings, that we are innocent, and that they intend to pursue the case to clear our name - I’d understand this is likely another compromised stitch up of a process, and would fully support the Club as I did last time round.

Even so, the vote was 2v1; it amazed me why the 1 was so blindfolded, read bribed!

 

[eastmanc]

the fact his an Arsenal fan doesn't inspire too much confidence, wasn't aware of that. Anyway he should know by now what the outcome will be, what he want know will be the penalty if any.

It doesnt matter.

 

[eastmanc]

So why are Newcastle not spending big then if it’s dead?

Because it's not yet but it will be replaced with something else

And, in that time (Pep time)
17 major honours
The treble
4 in a row
Domestic treble
100 points in a season
90+ points in four seasons (only ever been done 5 times before and one of those was a 42 game season)
Average of 89 points a season
246 wins out of 342 league games, 25 more than any other team in the same period (72%).
Scored 827 league goals (almost 2.5 per game), 80 more than Liverpool, whilst conceding 293, with Liverpool next best on 331.
The goal difference is a ridiculous +534, with Liverpool next on +413, then Arsenal on +257. EVERY other team is over 300 behind!

Guardiola won 704 points in his first 300 Premier League matches, which is 70 more than next best Jose Mourinho.

He became the fastest manager in Premier League history to earn 500 points when City drew 1-1 with Southampton in January 2022 (his 213th game.)

The only English top-flight team to score 100 goals at home in a single season in all competitions, doing so twice (2018/19 and 2022/23).

14 consecutive wins to end the 2018/19 Premier League season is the longest run of victories at the end of a campaign.

The 4-0 win over Newcastle in December 2021 was our 34th of that calendar year – a new English football record for the most top-flight wins in a calendar year, which was also our 18th away league win of the year - more than any other top-flight side has managed in the history of English football.

A few other PL records we’ve got.
Biggest title winning margin - 19 points
Smallest title winning margin - +8 GD
Most away points in a season - 50
Most away wins in a season - 16
Most consecutive away wins in a season - 12
Most goals scored in a season- 106
Most Golden Glove winners - 7

I wonder why any sponsor want to be associated with the above???

What an absolute mint team we’ve been watching these last few years and I’m very much looking forward to watching the new version emerge over the next year or two.

Somewhat unbelievable the amount of criticism they attract, especially on this site…

Great post

Its just a thought, only a thought.

Could it be reasonable that the verdict is out but the PL or City have put a Super injunction on it to suppress it to a later day. The verdict was indicated it could be march but hasnt happened or has it.

The press may know the verdict but cant say. it would certainly explain their change of tact if city had won.

it could explain our spending and the puma contracts etc...

Knowing that masters and the PL are F**ked the rest could ignore PSR and spend big.

The government would know the outcome and want to push ahead with a regulator.

I could be that certain posters ITK on here were right about some decision dates.

As Dido would say "its just a thought, Only a thought."

Yes, but apart from that what has Pep ever done for us?

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Imminent?

That Friday morning feeling for a private disclosure with us plebs finding out on Monday.

If it's actually announced on a Friday, I'll be able to claim itk as I've been pushing this for months.

To summarise, fuck knows.

[Marvin.]

In October, City put the APT regime, and with it the Premier League, on trial. That's progress, this topic does not reflect it.

 

[DJBusinesscake]

No.

No.
