For what it’s worth, Bird & Bird (representing the premier league) are not the firm I would ever turn to for litigation.
IP, maybe. But high stakes litigation, simply no.
City have Freshfields I believe, and now confirmed from the Mail’s articles, Pannick QC. A heavyweight team that, should we have a decent case, I’d entirely trust to pull us through successfully.
The mail’s latest articles are simply dogshit if I’m being blunt. They sent a reporter and they want their time in the spotlight. Nothing new learnt, and they even say that the Portuguese hacker Rui Pinto will give evidence on behalf of the PL under “witness protection”. I mean seriously, that would be a first! A hacker being used for witness evidence in a private non-criminal dispute. What a load of bollocks.

The fail must be run by a bunch of dimwits. Rehashing old ground that we have been already cleared from any financial wrongdoing by CAS.
We must be close to buying Kane/JG for this nonsense to start up again.
Made up rules to stop competition is ILLEGAL.

Harris, the arrogant c*nt!
He’s baiting on his Twitter page.
I *totally* get the vast majority of Man City fans hate FFP & UEFA. That's fair enough. Like Brexit, fair-minded people can legitimately hold vastly different sincere views. Disagree with me. Ask me Qs. But don't shoot the messenger. XX

Time to ban the fail. The racial undertones are clear with every attack. Using a criminal hacker to support mismatched emails is fantastically delusional.

The fact the Mail are mentioning the criminal extortionist Pinto as a potential ‘witness’ at all is proof that there is absolutely nothing new whatsoever. No new evidence at all, no smoking gun. It is just a rehash of the same old Football Leaks/Der Spiegel bullshit which has already been discredited and laughed out of an actual court of law. Written and published in bad faith and malice by a deranged individual with an axe to grindFor what it’s worth, Bird & Bird (representing the premier league) are not the firm I would ever turn to for litigation.

One of the funniest parts of the Mail’s coverage is the article about how the court “DISMANTLED our defence” by allowing the judgment to be published.
What Rob Harris is missing is that this was a procedural application which would happen 9 times out of 10 in a private dispute involving sensitive information. You don’t hear about the ones that win. If I’m being honest, and I do hate the negative media attention we get, I honestly doubt City would have cared that much about publication here. There was probably a tactical element, and it’s something you’d “try” anyway (but they were probably alive to the fact it would be published anyway, especially Pannick). What he’s missing more is the fact that the PREMIER LEAGUE also consented to the application, and also didn’t want it to be published.
A blatant misreading of what’s happened, which makes you question any of the other four articles they’ve published tonight. If they really had a “smoking gun”, why dedicate one article to a load of red tinted bollocks, and another saying that Rui Tinto will be spared jail for cooperation under a witness protection programme which INCLUDES helping the premier league in a non criminal private litigation...! Because that’s how our justice system works, we let criminals off if they cooperate to help one company sue another...

Hey Nick!
Guess what? Yes, you’ve got us bang to rights on the basis of one email. But guess what else? That email is eight years old, but the Limitation Act says the PL can only challenge us for things that happened in the last six years!!!!!
So your email is worth diddly squat!!!
Doesn’t that make your piss boil??
Never mind! Better luck next time

The cheating narrative will always stain our wonderful club thanks to trial by media whores. They have come at us again and again to tarnish and destroy the reputations of the Abu Dhabi Group and any decent City fan.
Deplorable behaviour by the MSM for financial gain.
The only cheat is this 2 bit hustler and his gargoyle pack…Fuck off.
