PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Do you think this case is super complex? And if so, in what way?
Thousands of pages documentary evidence, loads of witnesses, loads of legal argument, 10 week hearing, multi year allegations, allegations of civil fraud etc, 10s of millions of cost on both sides, at least 6 (from memory) KCs. Undeniably complex.
 
Real progress today I feel.
Reasons for our known enemies to resign and sell up have been found that seem acceptable to all have been found. Mr Masters has had his bonus paid so perhaps we can get on with the verdict?

AI would have had an answer by the end of the day.

The volume of material or the length of the hearing isn’t necessarily a direct function of the complexity of the case. Often the most grandiose and protracted of proceedings can boil down to a very simple principle. The Jaffa Cake VAT dispute being a case in point. The principle that arose from that determination is entirely straightforward. You don’t need to be a legal professional to grasp that.

So not undeniably.

But accept it most likely is.

The latter is certainly a good indicator. And a combination of all of things I wrote are more. Not sure your Jaffa cake case is a good example as suspect it didn't run to anywhere near 10 weeks. Be surprised if it was 10 days. But anyone that wants to argue it is a simple case (and many here have), go for it.
 
Rumbles its imminent June last year & 3 months later both Levy & Lewis are gone in boardroom shake ups. Both long term senior positions & both outspoken critics of City who are known to have pushed / lobbied hard against them.

Confidence from City with massive spending & planning to tell all at the conclusion.

Im happy to wait & see rather than trust me, leaving has nothing to do with this.

This case wouldn’t have seen the light of day without lobbying, people have to fall & it’s either City’s main guys or the premier league & it’s lobbyists. So far city have stayed strong.
