When did that ever stop them?Probably a good idea. It'd be a cesspit.

We should raise a vote of no confidence in Masters. Ask the other clubs if they’re happy for him to keep spending their money on ridiculous legal fees for cases they keep losing because they don’t know their own rules and keep trying to bring in illegal ones
so...who win?
I'm sure it's already been asked, but can someone help me out? Does this bear well for us in relation to the other charges?
Seems to me the Prem don't know their arse from their elbow and are just trying to damage us reputationally.
We don’t even know how many sponsorships they rejected unlawfully. We know City had 3, it wouldn’t surprise me if the league-wide figure was upwards of 10? You’d imagine Newcastle would have a few for starters. Chelsea? Wolves?
Those clubs are all going to want compensation for those sponsorships, especially if City end up getting a big wedge awarded.
So the next PL meeting could get very spicy.
I’ve granddaughters at nursery school who are more coherentIt'd help if he wrote in a language we know....
Yep. City fans have said for years that a red cartel exists and we have been painted as absolute cranks for suggesting it. Todays ruling shows that plays were made behind the scenes by certain individuals and clubs, to protect their status by whatever means necessary, including the introduction of unlawful rules.What this has shown is that it is the law which prevents the cartel from ruining anyone who stands in their way. The regulations governing the game have to be consistent with the law. For years now we have been treated to the nonsense that the governing bodies are only seeking to establish financial fair play, but today they have been shown to behave partially and unlawfully and deliberately so. It will be interesting now if an owner invests more than the PL allows and argues that FFP ignores that sponsorship deals are not as favourable to small clubs as "big" ones.
Good post mate,carry on.I’m an Ipswich fan, so I’ve got no particular horse in this race. But from that neutral perspective, it’s so damn good to see fans of the ‘big’ clubs trying desperately to have the moral high ground. They tried to fix the system, to make sure that no one else could *ever* legally match their financial firepower. That’s all they cared about. Being on top and STAYING on top in perpetuity. Feck everyone else. All this ridiculous moralising, pretending to care about principles of law, when it’s really about not letting anyone else join your elite club. It’s transparent, and I hope the cards continue to fall in City’s favour with this legal action.
Why do they need an emergency meeting. I thought the PL won the case!
