PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Of course we won't know for sure until we get the formal verdict but let's imagine a scenario in the hearing where the Mancini Al-Jazira contract is being discussed.

Apparently Mancini wasn't called as a witness (which might or might not tell us something about the strength of the PL's case). It's up to the PL to make their case, not for us to make ours, but let's say that the PL did produce some evidence indicating that the contract was (in their view) a sham, but we were able to show irrefutably that Mancini (or his representatives) fulfilled the terms of that contract completely. We'd be pretty confident we'd won that argument

Or the Fordham payments, where we could refute the PL charges and show that the payments had been properly declared to UEFA under FFP reporting, and that even if we'd paid them directly, there would have been no impact on PSR/FFP. It might be we'd get a slap on the wrist for slightly underdeclaring expenses possibly. However we also know that Fordham wasn't a deliberate attempt to hide expenses, but to generate revenue in the 2013 financial year. We could also show that UEFA knew about these payments by 2015, but no charges followed. Of course the PL panel would be free to make up it's own mind but, again, the PL would need to make their case on the balance of probabilities. And even that most cautious of commentators, Stefan, doesn't think they'll be able to do this.

So yes, we won't "know the outcome" but we should have a reasonable idea.

I agree! We are making the same point.
 
I reckon the 115 should be spread throughout the CFG. What is it 12/13 teams? Fuck it throw in the women’s and under 18s.

So what 15 teams so that’s about 7.5 charges each.

Can’t relegate city for only 7 charges when:

1 is not cutting the grass
2 not wearing red
3 not a financial cheating chav
4 not in £650 mill debt
5. Not using shareholders loan to buy players
6. Not sportwashed by standard charter.

So that’s only 1 charge left of no co operation and telling the fucking bent twats to do one.

Call it £115 pound and close the case.

We are fecking doomed. Just been on Faceache again and Rupert from Ruislip, Gupta from Gujarat and Odin Osmussssssssen from Oslo have published the absolute truth.
* Pep has defo left because he knows what’s coming.
* The Saudis will be forced to sell.
* all three have read somewhere we face a 60 point deduction so it must be true.
* Elliot Anderson is a better fit at United coz they are better at PR than us.

You almost had me until you mentioned the Saudis.
Fucking Saudis! We aren’t owned by Saudis.
Our owner from Kuwait never gets the credit he and his country / state deserve.
 
I'll wait until the club make a statement before I believe anything. There's not One person out there outside of the panel who know the ongoing situation or outcome. All folk are doing is guessing.

Is the season over though? What is the official date of the end of the season? We’ve had this argument before when Joe Royle tried to take legal action against the club

Good luck with the clear out potion, but when you’re in there, ask if you can get a copy of the video - worth it for the reaction ;)
