3 pronged?

''Three pronged'? 'Fork tongued' more like..

3 pronged?

There are 3 separate strands to the investigation.

Admittedly I'm no expert but I'd say you're entirely wrong on every single count there.

I assumed that there are some on the list who were marked as unavailable to start with - by geography, activity, known links.
I'd then assume that there is a known sublist of those specialising in different aspects of things - not a lot of point in selecting an Australian to look into UEFA matters if there are 30 people versed in UEFA.
Similarly there would be a sublist with a background in the right subject area - sponsorships are different from contractual matters.

Can't remember a single leak of any real significance out of UEFA since Parry left. Do you think it's a coincidence that Peter Moore has now left the LFC board? I wonder what prompted that move just after winning the title.

Possibly, but if it had already gone to the AC when he left, or the AC had announced their judgement when Parry left, there wouldn't be anything to leak.

3 pronged?

The original announcement said there were three strands, one of which was the Danish academy matter, and whether it was akin to 3rd party ownership.

There was an investigation about correct accounting - that presumably now goes nowhere.

There was also a strand about breaching the wage rise thing between 2013-6. It would be amazingly dumb to breach that one, and it's been reported that there's no timebarring in the PL.

That's not blushing, it's alcoholic telangectasia

The last one was terminated as another club were about to breach it.

It's certainly not in force now, I agree.
It'll be very City to be found in breach of something that's been abandoned.

It would be a travesty, but they could argue that they were the rules at the time, and as we are not liverpool, are not time barred in any way. This judicial panel will need an airing some time soon.

Would that club be the rags by any chance ?
