City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

Having read the PL statement it’s pathetic. It ranks with some of the worst responses from guilty parties in recent times. Embarrassing for the supposed regulators of the best league in the world.

Not least because the PL is supposed to be non partisan and represent ALL its clubs not just a small cabal.

I don’t think we lost any. The fact that some of the reasons for the laws being unlawful were dismissed did not change the outcome that the rules are unlawful.

We didn’t really lose any, though.

Some of our arguments regarding why the APT rules (original and revised) are unlawful were dismissed, but our overall charge that they are unlawful in previous and current form, and that the league unfairly targeted City (and Newcastle) and violated there own rules in doing so, were upheld in their entirety. The text of the decision also alludes to quite shady internal practices being driven by certain executives at certain clubs, which itself also confirms City’s assertion that the league has been working to unfairly advantage certain clubs at the expense of others.

We didn’t actually lose a single aspect of our challenge—we went 7 for 7 from the penalty spot.

The Forest fan is not a happy bunny. Shame.

Just goes to show how little he and other rival fans understand.

Sorry not had time to read all posts so apologies of Q asked or answer posted somewhere else

Where do folk think the news on the illegality of shareholder loans leave the Chavs with the Abramovich cash injection or is that all now a mountain of dust under the carpet?

As usual, main united mate when I’m rubbing his nose in it, “careful what you wish for, revelling in the start of the end of the Prem as we all know and love”, hahahaha.

I sent him back a screenshot of the league table & the circa £650mil spend under tent peg and asked is that our fault too….

There is one way to make victory clear. Sue the PL for damages.

and while at it , gut rehab governing body with fair and transparent oversight and reformed laws.

The Forest fan is not a happy bunny. Shame.

Many in the press claiming the PL won this case is like claimg Germany won WW2.

The gormless **** hasn’t clicked that so can United

It’s not even true. There will still be rules in place but firstly they will have to be lawful and secondly they will have to be applied evenly to all clubs. All football fans should want and expect the PL to do this.

In an era of seeing people sentenced to years in prison for spreading misinformation on social media, that **** Sandra Brent Goldbridge should be doing life.
