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

[cheekybids]

The basic premise of the article - that there are no financial controls if City "win" this case - , is nonsense. PSR and RPT will still be in force, at least until challenged.

If I was being overly analytical, I could pick holes in each paragraph. From the horrible grammar in the first paragraph ("– measures City have expended considerable resources trying to explain why their fellow clubs should reject"), to missing the point on why City wrote the recent letter in the second paragraph, to not understanding in paragraph three that City's strategy is wholly consistent with their view that the current rules are null and void, and will be, irrespective of Friday's vote, until the tribunal makes their decision, and so on.

It's a poor piece of journalism from a reporter who is obviously so far out of his comfort zone. The only question is whether he is stupid enough to proudly demonstrate his lack of expertise in this area, or unprofessional enough to write only what he is told to write. Tough one to answer that. Maybe the answer is both .....

It’s PR or spin doctoring whatever you want to call it.

What are the comments saying? Is it all bad City.

I asked AI for a response….

In response to the article, it's important to clarify that there are still robust financial regulations in place and no vote can supersede English law. The suggestion that such fundamental legal principles could be overridden is unfounded and misleading.

The financial framework within which we operate continues to be governed by well-established laws that ensure transparency, accountability, and the rule of law. Any changes or decisions made are subject to rigorous legal scrutiny to maintain the integrity of our financial and legal systems. It is critical to maintain public trust by upholding these standards and ensuring accurate information is shared.

I read the archived version so no comments. Not giving them a single pound of my hard earned money. The tossers.

But let me make a prediction. Comments from City and Newcastle fans will be negative about the "article". Comments from Arsenal, United, Liverpool and Spurs fans will be positive. For the rest it will be divided up between those fans who are informed enough to see what is going on, who will be negative, and those who just regurgitate whatever bollocks they have been fed, who will be positive.

Prove me wrong :)
