PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Bodicoteblue]

Somebody needs to ask them why do they think middle eastern billionaires crave western acceptance.

….and why they would choose the most partisan and hostile sphere of business to try it?

10am on Monday morning.

Here we go...

You are assuming they will run at 10am BST and not GMT ;)

Have I missed it ?

10am on Monday morning.

Here we go...

I looked at my watch. It was a minute past. A minute passed. Then, another minute passed swiftly past. And after a moment, another minute passed. I waited while a minute passed.

A minute passed. And another minute passed, followed swiftly by yet another, different minute. And then, a minute which seemed to last an hour, but was only a minute, passed.

A minute passed. Another minute passed. A further different minute. And another... and another. And another further different minute.

A minute passed......

15 minutes to go, woohoo!!!

Make it 11am

 

[metalblue]

Make it 11am

Even if that were the case what the fuck does the term sportswashing even mean, if its supposed to show the Arab nations in a good light its failing due to the repeated pathetic attacks by the likes of him and others. its a stupid term which doesnt actually mean anything, how in the actual fuck is the sheikh plowing 100s of millions of his personal wealth into city winning and the surrounding community benefiting abu dhabi in any way?

The arrogance of these idiots to think that these multi billionaires crave western acceptance is mindblowing.

ADUG buying City has generated far more scrutiny of Abu Dhabi’s politics and human rights record than existed among the average member of the British public beforehand.

In terms of perception it’s undoubtedly caused more harm than good for them.

But usually this is when these idiots start talking about it not just being about public perception, it’s about normalisation and ‘soft power’, business relationships and prestige and all sorts of other bollocks they fail to explain with any burden of proof how any of that is a) true or b) actually benefits the state.

It has always amongst these journalists been about hatred and envy. Fuck knows what has happened to McKenna for him to realise that him and his cronies have been pushing western imperialism all these years.

Did an owl hoot in a nearby copse?

Hello, and welcome to Dorchester, where a very good crowd has turned out to watch local boy Thomas Hardy write his new novel The Return of the Native on this very pleasant July morning. This will be his eleventh novel and the fifth of the very popular Wessex novels...

Yep, brushed under the carpet 5 minutes ago

Had a madras last night, no soft signals as of yet though.

I had the honey sriracha box from Tiger Bite after a few beers watching cricket and I can confirm there have been a number of soft signals so far today.

Thanks to Stefan for his piece on "The Auditor in the Room" which is informative and very relevant to the possible outcome of our case - far more so than anything Delaney has to say or infact just about any other contribution to this thread recently.

I wonder how many people know where that is from ?

(One for us oldies!)

The same people who gave the world Doug and Dinsdale Piranha........

Not been on this thread for some time.

Are we in the northern counties league yet?

If we chose to self-relegate, we could probably be back in the PL before the verdict drops.

Happy 1.15 everyone!
