PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

They’ve had a very busy year, so I can see them taking the Summer off until September when the rumours of imminence will resurface.
Last summer, it was mentioned by those in the profession that it was quite normal for lawyers to be on summer holidays for at least the full month of August, if not longer. So the panel are likely to be winding down for summer now after grafting all year. Maybe a decision will be published early next year?
 
i find it funny how rival fans love to bring up a quote from pep about he will leave if they lied to me, i'm sure that quote is at least 6-7 years old. no one seems to want to bring up what he said post charges his defence of the club should show he doesn't believe the club lied to him. he was expected to leave in 2025 so why would he sign a new contract midway through the trail happening haha
 
The documents would have been reviewed before and during the hearing. The panel are supposed to publish a verdict at the end of, or as soon as possible after the end of, the hearing. They won't still be sitting there ploughing through the evidence trying to make their minds up.

One thought occurred to me earlier. Stefan's assertion is that nothing has been communicated to the club, either formally or informally. If so, what's the club's reaction? Do they just sit there and meekly accept it'll come when it comes, without any communication with the PL or Murray Rosen? Or is there a constant to-and-fro between the parties, with City getting more and more agitated and demanding an outcome, or a timeline for one? Is Simon Cliff on the phone to Rosen every day?
Like you i dont believe this has just idly gone on for this long without any communication. I believe the club know the outcome and its the reason we are happy to sit back and wait for the official announcement.

You can put your mortgage on the fact that if the Premier League had won it would have been leaked to the usual suspects by now and it would be in the mainstream.
Somebody somewhere in the chain would have blurted it.

I’ve said this a few times. If the PL had won then Ziegler would have been tweeting like fuck.

City will know how this has gone, it may not be the official verdict but I struggle to believe City haven’t had some form of indication or something isn’t going on in the background.

There’s zero chance Maresca joins a club that is imminently going to be relegated either (as well as other new signings or extensions).
 
11 working days until WC kicks off. It won't drop on a weekend.

I do think the panel wisely using the huge gaffe that nobody put a strict timeline on this and their hourly rate is now being billed for months later still

Like a work project they give you to complete as long as it's taking you with no deadline and you just take 1.5 years even if you could have finished in 6 weeks given one of the points in The contract is nobody can hurry you or even ask to hurry up.
