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

[urban genie]

How depressing that the top two threads on this forum will be about legal cases and nothing about what's happening on the football pitch!

seaosns over so fuck all else to do tbf ;-)

 

[remember arthur mann]

If I was a "glass half empty" person, I could be thinking that the main case isn't going well, and that we're now going down this route.

My thoughts, but fook em.

It was around February cos Omar was announced just before the Spurs cup game end of January.

Hmm February you say.

So Scruffy was moving into arse licking mode when we laid the case. Interesting, thought it was a strange move from him out of nowhere to start blowing smoke up us.

This shouldn't be left to people on twitter to point out.

The club needs to fill the void with a statement, not just silence or a late night brief to a couple of journalists.

Hopefully the official statement comes from Khaldoon's end of season interview. Something along the lines of a couple of allegations made and a sue me if I'm wrong would do me.

:)

So it begins, long overdue......

THank you Sheik Mansour

Matt Lawton’s piece even states that the 115 charges are between 2009 and 2023.

They are not!

It’s 2009 to 2018.

Basic stuff.

he got it from bingo hoping to get titles that he didnt win given him

When we're cleared.

The Premier League best prepare immediately once again, because this time it will hurt our legal team will be going in dry...


Regardless of monetary gains potentially coming out way, honestly I'd rather we actually force the PL to comb over our rivals books instead, in the exact same manner as they've combed ours.

So best outcome is a settlement that makes the rules fairer. We get the "115" settled too. Then Pep says he's signed a rolling contract and he'll decide when to go not the cunts in the press room.

 

[argyle]

Can someone explain everything that's gone on like I'm 5?

Won't be hard to imagine that in fairness

In Feb new rules were brought in, at the behest of the redshirts and spurs, that gave the PL very broad powers to stop investment on the flimsiest of 'associations' between club owners and potential sponsors.

So not the Related Party rules but the new Associated Party rules.

The club is taking action against these new rules and are pointing out that they are being used against clubs with Gulf State connections.

That's what I have taken from it.

The story in the Time's is typically written in emotive language that puts City in a bad light and somehow connects these challenges with the 115 charges.

City have so far said nothing so expect the usual suspects in the media to criticise us, see it as a diversion and delaying tactic, etc, etc.
