PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

The pl thought City would just lay down and take it. Well the pl were fucking wrong and now all pl clubs will be out of income because of the red cartel.
It amazes me how other clubs have allowed the red cartel to screw them over. Remember Newcastle voted in favour of these rules now these rules are now screwing them !

LOl that anyone would have thought the club would have simply accepted an unprecedented amount of charges that would have likely seen us kicked out of the league, "yea no problem we'll just shuffle off to National League North"!
City are on record stating they are in favour of the rules but simply deny they broke them.

Holden came into a shop I was working in The Arndale while he was at City.

He was wearing a full tweed suit with a Trilby hat and a walking Caine. Imagine wearing that kind of attire in the Arndale in the early 90's....

I don’t think they even considered what they were starting. I think the outfit is so amateur, they hadn’t realised the gravity of their accusations. If they’d have understood then there was only one way it was going to play out & Stefan predicted within the first few days.

I very much doubt that they thought we would just lie down and take it. They will have known we would fight it. Especially given how vocal we were about our innocence in the UEFA case.
I "assume" that they thought they had a good case with at least some chance of winning. What that was based on i don't know. But you don't bring a very expensive case unless you think you have a chance of winning.
That said i think it was a mistake on their part not to get in a room with city and try and thrash it out first.

'Other sources say it is impossible to calculate the actual figure at this stage'.

Good shocking headline, but even He is unwilling to try actually back it.

I imagine the deal was some sort of fine and some sporting sanction which the club the Premier League in no certain terms to fuck off and let someone independent look at the evidence.

They have been that naive in how they run things they have left themselves open to a double pincer attack from the club. The APT case has exposed how incompetent they are running an illegal rule book for over 3 years and allowing other clubs to gain an advantage from that with interest free director loans. The next instalment of that takes place in a few weeks time where it looks like they will be on the hook for compensation.

On what has been established in how the PL works with its vested interests in helping certain clubs and stopping others. The 115 charges is not going to end well for them, out of pocket on legal fees, lots of angry clubs wondering why the money they get from the PL as stakeholders is less than it previously was and then ultimately being exposed for the not fit for purpose organisation they are. It’s shit having to wait for all this but when the 115 findings come out the earthquake it will cause will be biblical.

When I was invited into the players lounge at Coventry City. After the game all the players were there in smart casual dress.... then in walks Kevin Bond in a Deer Stalker hat... stood out like a spare prick at a party.

So let me get this straight. City are now dragging out the outcome of the hearing so as to keep it going longer so that all the PL clubs run out of money?

It’s a good idea, but in reality it takes us closer to the Super League.
The Premier League as an entity going bust, and the new replacement organisation will be the super league.

The football chess playing owners have already successfully replaced the legacy fan in a lot of cases and they could probably do what they want without much of a fightback. Even some of the season ticket holders on here were of the "Fuck you" attitude regarding fans left out in the cold because of 3rd party companies flogging tickets abroad.

There are rumours that Jackson at Chelsea might go for as much as £80 million quid, let that sink in?

The sport/business is disappearing up its own arse in quick time.

These cunts knew this would cost a right lot of money when they decided to kick off over it, so they can fuck off with their whinging.

“New Premier League rules state that anyone sitting on an arbitration panel must confirm they are able to devote sufficient time, diligence and industry to ensure the expeditious and efficient conduct of the arbitration and avoid costly delays”.

Are the PL genuinely suggesting they never thought to check this with panel members prior to them taking the role?

What a massive shitshow.
