It's posturing. We won't sue. Believe me or don't.

Might go on holiday here next year ........ is it an all inclusive resort ?

Even if it is all inclusive the likes of Castles, Harris and Tebas will accuse you of cheating by getting away without paying your restaurant and bar bills.

Unsure if this has been posted already but good to hear we’re on the front foot & wonder who the high profile journo is.

That may be the shot across the bows I hoped for. Even if we wouldn't want to go to court, the risk of a libel action may mean the paper or broadcaster might get a note from their insurers reminding them that their cover against defamation may not apply if they are defaming City despite the club having been cleared by a court.

Poor encourager les autres. (Not quite le mot juste but it will do.)

We don't need to, calculated threats are sufficient.

Never mind court. I want Errol to feed them to the pigs.

Feed them to the pigs Errol.

It's going to be pretty embarrassing if the club threatens legal action via newspaper briefings and then does fuck all when Tebas continues to mouth off.

It's posturing. We won't sue. Believe me or don't.

The whole point of posturing is that the other party believe you will carry out the threat. If they know you won't, it's just bad posture.

Its a pity the Clinton's ain't blues, they would know how to stop them all from talking... allegedly ;-)

City are non litigious by nature and design. The owners really don't want a rep for suing left right and centre. They prefer a low profile. We sent Tebag a letter once before and he laughed at the lack of follow up. If this is just posturing, best to say nowt.
City need to be as careful as their critics on what is said. Insinuations that we disguised sources of funds are actionable but statements that we broke ffp regs are true, cooperation being part of those rules.
