City fined £35,000 for anti-doping admin error

Manchester City have been charged in relation to The FA’s Rules on Anti-Doping.

It is alleged the club failed to ensure that their ‘Club Whereabouts’ information was accurate, contrary to Regulation 14(d).

City have until 19 January 2017 to respond to the charge.

Doubtless this will now be a points deduction issue. We will also have to play our next five fa cup matches away to premier league sides
 
Could understand the charge if it related to 'not knowing the defence Whereabouts ' against Leicester,no agenda my arse!
 

No, we failed to keep it accurate.

If they'd written inaccurate then it would be a double negative and they'd be saying we kept things accurately.
 
Is this a spoof? Are you mucking about on yer computer, Jim H? Anti-doping? Who's been doped? Bravo? The back four? Prob we FOCs in CBL3! I'v been doped on Bovril. I'm not gonna answer the charge. The FArce can go and fuck PiGMOL referees with a corner flag!
 
I don't know much about this and haven't read the full article as I am at work but surely a charge is a little heavy. I would have thought the FA would have advised City that the 'whereabouts' paperwork was not up to date and set deadlines for improvement. If that happened and we didn't comply then admin have a lot to answer for
 
Classic smear job from the FA. We've essentially been charged with filling a form out wrong, but it gives the FA and media the excuse to label us as having been charged with an anti doping offence
 
14 (d) says:

It shall also be a breach of this Regulation 14 by the Club if the information
contained in such reports is either initially inaccurate or has not been updated by
the Club as necessary to ensure it remains accurate.

14 (a) says:

All Clubs must furnish The FA upon request with any whereabouts information The
FA requires from time to time in respect of any Players who are not IRTP Players or
NRTP Players. That information shall include as a minimum:
(i) training dates;
(ii) start and finish times of training;
(iii) the address at which such training will take place; and
(iv) the home address for a Player and any other address at which a Player
regularly resides overnight.

it is most probably administrative error but we''ll have to see how other clubs have been dealt with this in the past (if any).
