United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea? No6?

“There’s no doubt pressure on the Premier League from a group of clubs who are trying to address Man City,” he told Football Insider‘s Adam Williams.

“City, in the view of these clubs, are far too successful. They have fantastic recruitment and strategic policy. Everybody is rowing in the same direction.

“They are outperforming other clubs with similar incomes. This is a backdoor way of trying to rein them in.

“The clubs who wrote to the Premier League over City’s initial Uefa ban are trying to give them extra bullets in their pursuit of City.

“While Uefa’s investigation into City is over, it looks as though the Premier League’s investigation is still ongoing.

“Ther are clubs who are gunning for Man City. There’s clearly some bad blood between the sneaky six.”

It seems obvious to me that It's City - the 6 are the super league clubs.

I belive MCFC and our chairman are perfectly aware of the agenda and motives of these wankers and have been taking whatever action is necessary. Long term I expect there to be only one winner. The problem with these twats is they think they are dealing with some camel jockey caricature whereas the truth is we are run by some of the world's most astute business minds with power, wealth and acumen. Sufficient enough to deal with these fucking pretenders writing their pathetic letters. I know who my money is on.

I should think every Premier league club have financial skeletons in the accounts cupboard.
Everton finance looks dodgy, Liverpool lost 50 million down a black hole developing a new stadium that didn't exist. Glazers accounts are lost in a world of tax havens.
City get investigated

I think our time is up, they've found our Achilles heel, millions in fines, points deducted, all because of the day we ran out of chips !

I think the way we played the rags on Sanchez, Maguire, Fred and Ronaldo tells your everything.

Revenge is sweet and comes in many forms.

My expectation with this PL investigation is as follows:

- They will charge us with some sort of wrongdoing after yet more lobbying from our rivals
- There will be some sort of settlement between us & the PL to draw a line in the sand as both parties clearly want this done with, probably with some sort of fine or withholding of PL revenues to us
- If City refuse the above it'll go down the CAS route (not sure where in the UK or if possible) & we'll end up with another fine for non-cooperation.

Most of this is based purely of the article Slbsn did in the Daily Mail.

Don't think we can use CAS over a dispute with the PL.

I don't get this article at all. It may be that they're worried about deals between City and the other CFG clubs but I think they're few and far between anyway.

"Law firm Brabners reported on Monday (17 January) that the league has demanded details from all clubs of third party deals dating back to 2016.

Every transaction over £100,000, excluding player transfers, will be scrutinised for fair market value.

The aim is to prevent clubs from using covert methods to bypass profit and sustainability regulations.

Maguire argues that the demand for backdated details looks like a pointed attack on City."

Surely the above would terrify Chelsea above everyone else? And what about Coutinhoe's £146 million transfer?

TBH that looks like rehash of what we already know.

 

[Norbiton]

And what about Coutinhoe's £146 million transfer?

That may be why they’re excluding player transfers. Though I’m not sure what other third party transactions might be of dubious value. Surely sponsorships involve only two parties.

This.

Law firm Brabners might have reported these details on the 17th Jan but there isn't anything new in there that wasn't posted in this thread before Xmas.

Also I think we have already passed the deadline for PL clubs to have given the league details of the historic sponsorships. The deadline was sometime the middle of this iirc but cba looking for the exact date.

Doesn't alter the fact that it is all BS and the usual suspects will always want to stir, sling mud etc.
