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

[spinney]

That's it in a nutshell "making it up as they go along".

FFP, PSR, FMV, APT, RP, shareholder loans at 0%, £105 million over 3 years, net spend, transfer amortisation, blah fuckin blah.

Never heard of all this bollocks until City won the league. What happened to football?

Greed and fear

I don’t read it that way. If the rules are illegal they will have to withdraw them again instantly.

they are still illegal as it benefits one set of teams over another there's no getting around this issue

You can imagine the red tops to be back slapping each other and tugging each other off,well we may have lost the battle but we will win the war..you set of corrupt wankers...

Not just the red tops fella! Undisguised contempt for us pretty much encompasses the whole print media - including (and perhaps particularly) 'broadsheets' such as the Guardian and Torygraph - plus numerous TV channels and websites.

Is it time for Etihad to sponsor Newcastle and the Saudi Tourism board to sponsor City yet?

That wasn't why Leicester "got off". Leicester showed that they were not a PL club when the breaches took place and so had not and could not breach PL regulations.

Has it ever been confirmed that the PL are (unbelievably) appealing against the Leicester decision?

Just on BBC news the clubs 17 of them voted to change the rules is it good or bad ? To change the rules on ownership I’m not sure ? Party transactions ? I just want this over and done with.

14 to 4 with 2 abstentions according to SSN, Everton & Wolves maybe for the abstentions?

So not 16 to 4 then as per the media?

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was City abstaining, by voting yes or no they are endorsing what is proposed is legal.

 

[york away to this!]

It should do because they've tried that stunt on us already

It's a cunning stunt.

 

[Centurions]

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was City abstaining, by voting yes or no they are endorsing what is proposed is legal.

They claim that us, Newcastle, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest voted against.
