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

[WRicko]

Managed to catch a bit of the overlap and that Ian wright is a proper ****. He ranted about city need to stay in line with the rules, this is what happens when clubs are owned by states blah blah blah. It took Roy Keane to add a sense of balance. Gary was trying to be Simon Jordan with well thought out responses but his mouth betrayed him per usual due to the hate.

That Ian wright tho is a fucking wanker.

It’s weird how people think following the premier league rules is more important than following the law

They can fix it with a few tweaks. The problem they've got is at least 14 clubs will vote against those few tweaks so they'll get thrown out anyway which means they'll have to either remove the entire rules or get sued again this time by multiple clubs.

They might think they can fix it with a few tweaks, but they would be foolish to try this. So far:

- Leicester escaped sanction because of poorly drafted rules when their legal team found a loophole
- Everton and Forest both successfully appealed sanctions
- Chelsea are making a mockery of the rules by selling off assets
- Chelsea have hidden numerous illegal activities from them
- Liverpool, Arsenal and others are benefiting from low interest loans
- Chelsea and others are trading youth players in order to circumvent FFP
- United are given allowances that no other club has been allowed
- their rules have been declared illegal
- they are rumoured to have allowed one of their members to draw up some of their rule changes

A few tweaks ain't going to fix this shambles. They need some proper legal experts reviewing the whole rule book. If they think there is a quick fix, it proves more than anything that they need someone overseeing them - a regulator.

Just look at Wright's history....why the hell is he even on media apart from tik boxing ?

Ian Wright is all consumed with jealousy. Before they were our rivals they were happy to see lfc and utd beat, now that they are in contention though he's turned full woman. Crying about City all the time. Man needs to grow up.

If Masters is sacked, we could employ him. Give him a non job and then ask him to tell us all the goss ;)

Has the kit man been replaced yet?

is there a date set for a regulator? if not i wouldnt expect one soon now that starmer has been buttered up at the Emirates and the swamp while soaking up his freebies, i'd imagine its on the back burner

Interesting times ahead, I personally don't feel that our win is enough to force Masters out of the PL. They will look at how the rules can be amended and aim to keep as many of the current restrictions in place as possible. Seek to create the illusion that they were in the right all along.

However, the big unknown is the 115 Case currently being run.

A few weeks into the hearing both sides will now be getting a "feel" for how this is panning out, If the PL are winning many of the charges and feel they are in a strong position then I can see them standing by Masters, but what if they are are seeing their charges being unfounded. Can they afford yet another humiliation with the costs escalating.

My take is, if Masters goes in the coming weeks it is more of an indicator that the main case has gone south on them.

Can't vouch for this youtube channel but this is spot.

I have never liked Ian Wright or Mark Bright playing for Palace at Maine Road when they got Eric Nixon sent off
both had been at all game and Eric was their target

agreed, by now both parties will have some sort of idea how things are going but i expect Masters to be the fall guy along with a few others after the 115 result, complete clear out after a defeat
