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

You assuming Everton will still back us? Will they still given that they have the most shareholder debt.

Southampton West Ham and Fulham have no shareholder loans either so they won't be affected by the future interest payments.

Alway thought Everton might be up for a ruck, not unlike our club or fanbase?

Do they have a choice, by law they now have to be included going forward surely?

No, it wasn't ruled illegal to not include loans without interest just discriminatory

Fucking hell you have seven bread snappers

Not if all APT rules are scrapped. The decision was it was not lawful to exclude them while including other associated transactions. Logically, if all APT rules are scrapped there is no problem.

That's not right. Excluding shareholder loans from the scope was one of the reasons it was ruled unlawful.

Meanwhile, any football going on?

But can we get 7 votes? 1 City 2 Newcastle 3 Chelsea 4 Everton 5 Forest. Can't think of any others tbh.

Whatever they propose - they have still got to deal with the current irregularities. So they HAVE to pass changes to the rules that affected the “gulf” states. If the clubs with loans don’t have to pay interest then APTs are null & void. If they are not backdated, then all APTs prior to the new rules will be revoked & as we were badly affected, compensation will be sought (if it’s not already). Either way, the PL have got a huge mess to sort out.

Whatever the proposals they suggest, the reds will find it hard to vote.

Is my take on this correct???

Then they will have to put forward a vote that does get a majority, like shall we scrap APTs? Only takes a block of seven clubs standing firm.

As I said though, they will be lobbying for votes and won't put a motion forward until they have them, I imagine. They are already saying no vote next week, aren't they?

If it’s a no vote situation then we still win because the APTs are illegal & we are due compensation

OK, so what I meant was that they will have to include loans but apply interest.
