PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

My guess at the broad outcome:
1. City cleared of the major charges that suggest our accounts were not accurate.
2. City recommended to be fined for non co-operation and maybe a minor charge.
3. Premier League heavily criticised for pursuing charges for which
they had no evidence and for unnecessarily adding too many charges to the case. Criticised for seeming collusion with cartel clubs.
4. PL to pay its own costs and part of City’s. Figures to be decided at later hearing.
5. Trebles all round at the Etihad. Extra Haut Brion for Pannick. World scoop for PB.
Later…..Khaldoon to go apeshit. (Well, I can hope.)

Why do you think we haven’t cooperated when the club states it did?

If only there was news of Masters and his rag sidekick's resignation just to keep the suspense cranked up.

I think they are saving that for when the other Club members of the PL have been informed of the verdict and also how much they will have to pay in legal fees.

I agree, before someone makes a hash of it.

Anyway I am bored today. It’s quiet at work so here’s some dates based on the PL charge date of 3rd February 2023.

Current Day : 964
Day 1000 will be Thursday 30th October.
The next multiple (9th) of 115 is 1035 and is Thursday 4th December.

In other words, get on with it.

I had forgotten that these charges were released on my birthday in Glossop, 63 years prior to their release

I am now 2 time zones ahead of GMT and 80 degrees of latitude further away.

Anybody able to connect all of this to a future date of release????

I imagine the delay is due to having to ensure that every single comma, full stop etc has to be in exactly the right place so the verdict is clear, unambiguous, and unchallengeable.

The old eats shoots and leaves thing.

I’ve probably put a comma in the wrong place now I’ve wrote that.

Just to add to the post count about commas, a demo of their importance I saw was "My favourite things include eating my children and wine"
