Benjamin Mendy - City lose case and Mendy awarded £11m in back pay (p168)

He'll get backdated pay from City, apparently. I know someone who knows him and this is what he's been told. No idea how much.
Nah he won’t get any backdated pay.
He broke his contract (by being in the Nick)
And even if he gets off with the remaining charges? It doesn’t mean he didn’t do it.

He won’t be getting a penny off city and no compensation.
 
Doubtful as it was his fault he got locked up for breaking bail conditions. I'm guessing he's not a Mensa level intelligent bloke.

Also the behaviour he testified to in court alone would constitute massive breaches of his contract, let alone any kind of “bringing the employer” into disrepute from the arrest and prosecution.
 
Three trophies in three seasons and the semi finals of the Champions League shows Pellegrini wasn’t too bad at all.

The first season in particular was exceptional. I loved every minute.
Until the end of Jan Negredo was exceptional before Dzeko stepped up at the end of the season with some big goals. Dont think Pelligrini has ever got the credit he deserves for winning the PL and LC in his 1st season in England.
 
To be honest, I thought Fernando was OK for us, but never really progressed. He's a decent pro.

I thought Wilf would set the place on fire when he signed. Unfortunately, Wilf is a lazy bastard who put his feet up before the ink was dry on his contract.

It was a terrible window!
Wilf also then caught malaria which is an extremely debilitating illness. His performance after that dropped off, although I’ll never forget Sevilla away

What a weird bunch Bluemooners are
 
I’d have thought if Mendy is cleared of all charges he’d have a claim against the Crown… he’s had his career ruined and has lost his income as a direct result of the charges they brought and the fact he was placed in prison for part of his bail - preventing him training.

Pellegrini absolutely never got the respect. In case we forget the EPL Manager of the season for 2013/14 was…….Tony Pulis!!! His crap Crystal Palace side finished 11th and were quickly knocked out all of the Cups. That twat Alan Pardew denied Mancini of the EPL Manager of the season in 2011/12 by finishing 5th with Newcastle…….but Tony Pulis…WTF!!

He’ll have no claim against the Crown, as there is no readily available cause of action against public authorities: Judicial review, breach of statutory duty, misfeasance in public office all have a very high threshold to establish, never mind win a claim - and consciously so. The establishment looks after its own.
