Never said it was perfect. Just better in that particular way.

This is one of the reasons I moved to USA. On the west coast at least the vast majority encourage and laud success and try to pick you up in the event of failure. Far better than the twisted and bitter UK approach of keying the nice car and stamping into The dirt anyone who is having a hard...

The thing that makes me scratch my head is that if Gomez and Palmer had been playing for anyone else and then performed like they did at the U-21’s then everyone would have been talking about them as possible high quality buys for us. Yet suddenly they are now nowhere near good enough.

Corrected.

Not sure I agree with that. Lavia and Borges got sold for good money and likely commensurate wages. If they had not been in our academy with the training they get and the footballing education second to none that would never have happened. They would have been stuck in the usual having to prove...

That’s too much luggage even for this thread…

Any chance that Pep uses Gomez as a winger? He started out as a creative attacking player for Spain U-17.

Knowing you are a BMW driver explains a lot…

Discreet issues can be challenged and appealed in the English court system. It’s the final result that is unlikely to go to Appeal. Sorry if already answered. Catching up as been in Trial.

Can’t disagree with any of that especially that it doesn’t make a whole load of difference, but the back and front channel messages were always ones of City refusing to provide anything meaningful until they got to CAS. The arguments we used always felt “likely to be unsuccessful but required in...

The panel found that MCFC had deliberately refused to provide several witnesses including Simon Pearce at the earlier meeting and refused to provide the originals of the leaked emails until the CAS hearing. These were acknowledged by MCFC as being deliberately done due to leaks from UEFA. We...

They sanctioned us because we admitted to deliberately failing to cooperate. They had no choice.

Think you misread. I said Being not having…

If it’s just him being a **** then professional help is a waste of time. As we both know there is no cure for being a ****…

Unless it’s a contingency fee matter…

Sorry. Obviously a joke. Speed reading and trying to answer legal points and queries takes out my comedy radar…

I just looked back. Your view was that my view on the non cooperation charges was “wishful thinking”. I took That to mean that you felt we will likely be found to have failed to cooperate. Sorry if I misconstrued.

Could be… I’ve been busy and just trying to catch up on here.

How can you disagree with us both? Stefan thinks we will be found to have failed to cooperate and I think we will successfully defend that charge. What position are you taking that is neither of those?

The other fact not dealt with here is the the PL regulation arm which has filed these charges has a short term half-life due to the white paper, making the ultimate impact of losing at the panel all but moot.
