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

[blueparrot]

Sorry if this sounds simplistic (I am obv) but does it matter if the vote is 19 - 1? Surely if the rules are deemed illegal, the club just take the whole lot to court and the threat of that should surely carry the day.

Think that's right.What should happen if the PL are sensible is, they re-write the rules, run them past the tribunal to check they pass their tests, then vote on the new rules. Whether they will be sensible is anyones guess.

It would be funny but to be honest it's not how City or us fans roll.


Fuck it....get them points off ;)

At this point I despise them so much I am incapable of being objective. Currently I would support capital punishment for the cheating, hypocritical scum

The thread is becoming a platform for sesqipedalian oneupmanship and grammatical pedants.

(So I thought I might as well join in.)

The thread is also for thick cunts like me who get more confused by each passing day !!

Dunno what @tolmie's hairdoo has heard, but sounds intriguing nonetheless.

He’ll probably be asked to fall on his sword. He can’t be sacked as that would be akin to an admission of liability. It didn’t make sense he had to leave that event early this week. The story was that it was to prepare for next week’s meeting. He needs a week to prepare? He was called somewhere.

How could the future and the livelihoods of all these clubs in the league be placed in palm of this fools hands.

He's made the Premier League a laughing stock. I'm surprised there isn't a vote to fuck the fat ponce off.

Puts Neilsen right in firing line. All fingers pointing at them I think.

So Neilsen did a report for City which valued Etihad higher than the value they later provided for the PL. And Nielsen used the same methodology in both instances. That sounds very fair!!

Ah Tolmie being cryptic again and sidelining us all putting this in the Legal Fred.
This is a transfer -ELM is an acronym pronounced LM. There is only one global footballer with those initials.
Solved again.

Confidence in Nielsen is surely tarnished, as we asked them for a FMV and the PL asked them for a FMV a few years later. The PL valuation using the same methodology was much lower than the valuation we paid them to give us.

So as another poster said earlier, Nielsen will deliver whatever result their client pays for.

From where I am sat and what I have read over the last year or two.
City have opened the proverbial can of worms.
I am convinced that they told the PL that’s what they would do unless the PL played fair.
Then the 115 came out which was clearly a shock to city.
Ok then mr masters. The can of worms will now be opened.
From the moment those 115 charges came out. City picked out mistakes showing their incompetence
Clearly we have far superior lawyers and actually check with them before firing from the hip.
The PL are now running scared.
I expect masters to carry the can. His only source of income may be a book. That could be interesting.
The whole feel is of the group of spoilt boys pushing the school ground bully into having a fight with a professional boxer .
That bully now has a bloody nose and knows if he try’s it again he will get knocked out
