PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[KS55]

For an ex-MGS boy you seem to have issues with comprehension. You always manage to not understand or completely twist everything I say. But that's deliberate isn't it?

The PL have charged Stefan and Colin with having a silly argument.

Starting to think it might be early next year…

I don't think so. I still have no idea what you meant above.

And also for the millionth time, the behaviour of the club since the charges landed..... Pep's contract, Haaland's contract, signing superstars like Donnarumma, extending the stadium, clinching huge new sponsorship deals etc etc.... absolutely screams out that they know full well the way the wind has blown

I said City are confident. I mentioned soft signals multiple times in the past. They are confident.

But they don't KNOW and acknowledge the decision may say things they don't like.

My email sent 9:05 today.

Dear David

Thank you for your reply to my initial enquiry.

A month on from this, are we still in the same situation of not knowing the outcome to the case? Some people have suggested that the outcome might be released during the November international football break. Do you have any indication about when the outcome will be made public?

Many thanks

His reply at 9:55 today:

No developments. No fresh information.

Regards

David

As before, this is a genuine email from me and a genuine response from David, even though I haven't screen shot the message this time.

Perhaps they feel they have done nothing wrong, and therefore nothing to worry about, just a case of resolving the matter once and for all, I think that was what they put out in the initial statement.

Are we innocent or guilty then ?

I'm not saying that i'm itk and i'm not saying that i'm not itk but.......

jezzzz nearly 6 thousand pages and nobody thought of asking this question
atleast you cut to chase

 

[grandsolo]

We're guilty of being innocent, or innocent of being guilty, however you want to view it.

Can everyone please stop saying “for the millionth time” for the millionth time?

If I've told you a million times, stop exaggerating! ;-)

 

[malg]

aaahhhh......this is at the top of the charts again. Just had a wee look at what's going on and it appears not much.

Is this a five minute argument or the full half hour ?

 

[Rory Bluelow]

Careful with the Peroni mate. My swingometer tends to get a bit temperamental after 4.

I lose my swing totally after half a dozen !

 

[woody1968]

I think to speed things along we should negotiate a plea bargain and offer to plead guilty to a charge of upsetting the apple cart and making trouble for the establishment.

 

[halfcenturyup]

Wasteofwords would be some username.

Surprised none of the lawyers on here has taken it, tbh .....

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

I was referring to the commission, not the lawyers.

And actually the rule you quoted related specifically to an appeal, which given we haven't had a decision then we won't have appealed.

Yes. The three Judges would certainly have formed some sort of view by the end of the hearing. Perhaps not their final view but a good idea of the broad issues. Deliberating and writing up their final decision is the longest part of the process. Like you I am surprised by the length of time it has taken. Whatever the decision the biggest risk to both parties is the subsequent catastrophic damage to reputation. Both sides will have prepared comprehensive comms strategies in the event of any outcome and the lawyers would have had input into these discussions. So there will certainly be background discussions happening based on likely outcomes in advance of any decision.

 

[mcfcphil]

In keeping with this entire episode, when the verdict does finally break, you just know its going to happen in the most outrageously ridiculous way imaginable.
