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

I’ve had a Forest fan sharing a video calling us cheats. Phoenix Nights themed. I said you’ve admitted to cheating FSR. He said yeah but we accept the punishment on the chin and show integrity. I said not really. You complained about VAR all season but when it came to the vote you left Wolves high and dry on one vote against st 19. I told Tosh that it was reminiscent of the Notts scabs in the Miners’ Strike.

The gloves are off as far as I’m concerned.!The Prem have turned a blind eye to our owners being racially discriminated against and need to be put in their place.. I know Evertonians were ready to teach Masters a lesson

I don’t know about anyone else, but it really is getting pretty nasty in chats with people I’d actually considered pretty good mates. I was joyous that we had become so successful without becoming public enemy number one even as recent as the season before last. But this last move seems to have turned a huge tide against us. Dig in blues!

If true- and probably is - nothing to see. I suspect we are arguing over more than just shirt sponsorship but the absurdity in these arrangements must help our current case. There are numerous examples of how clubs are gaming the system with shell sponsorship arrangements with opaque ownership and seemingly limited accountability to UK Authorities as they are registered in the Cayman Islands or other such places.

We have a minor sponsor with such an arrangement I think.

See below for some eye popping detail.

Many shell companies are behind EPL shirt sponsorship deals

According to an in-depth study by the Financial Times, many gambling sponsors seen in the Premier League come from shell companies. This essentially means that these companies only truly exist on paper. Teams such as Newcastle, Watford, and Leicester City have reportedly received funds from such...

He also said the result may not be disclosed, so if we win, all we might see is sackings at the FA.
He also said he did not expect us to win, that might be down to which charge, or who was paying him at the time. My view is we have a Members Association who should be protecting all it`s members, but has knowingly and willfully brought in an illegal rule, without the full support of all it`s members, that can be used to target members, that is not for the benefit of all members.
He also said it would not impact the 115, but how could it not? the FA may not be there, such is the importance of these charges, there is the way the FA are using the rules, the wording, and the repetition of the charges.

Am I missing something?
Where do the FA come into this?

They all want to stand outside, wolf whistling Lord Pannick as he enters and leaves the building. It's Beatlemania, 60 years on

It's Pannick on the streets of London.

I was expecting it when I went into work this week, but the complete opposite.
Not a peep out of the regular Liverpool and United heads.

We should announce our new 100 billion pound shirt sponsor “Red Cartel” on April 1st

Must have been a typo, I'm sure he meant "grifting".

Original definition of 'grafting' in the US meant precisely the same thing. How appropriate!

Around 1865, the OED says, 'graft' in the US was 'The obtaining of profit or advantage by dishonest or shady means... especially bribery, blackmail, or the abuse of a position of power or influence'.
