    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Thanks. I’m not insisting anything. In fact, I’ve stated it’s a guess. My best guess. It’s based on a few conversations and a feeling some level of agreed planning makes sense for both parties if, as I assume, the draft decision has been close to finalisation for a few weeks. There is no...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Yes but likewise an agreed position from the parties can be communicated to the panel and a timing agreed. That is especially so when the decision will go the parties in advance and, I believe, with at least a weekend for the clubs to read it and prepare.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    My feeling is that it is just not likely in the run up to a game like Liverpool with a 2 week break so close. So whilst the parties may have the decision (I have no idea either way), I think the break is much more likely

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    There is no real scenario though. We would always see the final decision (or award as it is known). The only way we wouldn't see reasons is if the parties had agreed at the outset that they didn't want reasons from the Commission. In the circumstances, this was/is impossible. So there is no...

    That would be my guess, yes

    Won't be the same people. Information comes via a myriad of ways so it is not simply a case of asking for an update. I suspect, I'd have been told if the decision had dropped.

    It is amazing but you simply have to check its output. It is brilliant for short cutting stuff you know - treat it like a junior or trainee creating first cuts of things

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I haven't said that because I haven't got that information since the little burst of information at the last international break. I have had no negative confirmations (ie not received) nor positive since. I'm guessing it will be next week now.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Which it will be. The contortions to create something that isn't going to happen is really quite impressive. There will be a decision and we will see it. It really is that simple. PS Chatgpt is really bad at football regulations. Some of those rules don't even exist and all the references are...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    It just isn't true. There is a requirement to publish the decision for a rule W disciplinary and both parties has said it will be published. Which it will.

    I think the executive's position is going to be questionable. The Chair may feel they owe a resignation but I agree it is not a foregone that the Chair resigns. In fact, it is likely the Chair's job to request the CEO and others' resignation.

    I’d say it’s very unsurprising that the largest ever PL sponsorship gets a lot of committee consideration

    Fyfield sits on a sub-committee to approve (or not) the recommendations of the Regulatory Committee. She is not preparing the report, she (and another NED) are considering it and asking questions in the way sub-committees often offer independent oversight of an exec function. Not sure there is...

    They just nicked my tweet and screenshot. City factored the remaining monies from Barca - we know this because Barca's accounts tells us - so it is definitely correct. Given the risk (UEFA football creditor rules) and current interest rates, I reckon it cost 5-6%pa to do so. It won't be far out...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    “Dined out!” In reality, the club has received free media services from me. As for the substance, firstly, I know more than most people because, as I have said before, I speak to people from multiple angles on the story. Second, I have been absolutely clear as to the limits of any...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    To be clear, I was sent the actual email exchange - with its metadata and links etc (not just a screenshot). I also ran a check for any inconsistencies and none were found. It is real.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Having seen the email exchange and checked multiple elements of it (things like the working linkedin link), I think it is real. On top of that it matches exactly what other sources have said. As for being wrong, if I am wrong, I am wrong. Who cares. But as it is I am trying, in good faith, to...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Yes I prefer to be right (not to be "seen as" right - to be right) - everyone professing to have knowledge on the topic should strive to do the same. And I also don't like people misleading other fans or simply telling them what they think they want to hear. So yes I strive to be right - if I...
