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

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Beyond the fact that is a very obvious attempt at saving face for being demonstratively wrong with his earlier “reporting”, the second tweet is utter nonsense. The league cannot simply revert to rules that no longer exist. And the rulings that shareholder loans must now be included in APT assessments, whatever the new compliant rules end up being, is a major change that will have implications for many PL clubs and ramifications for the wider market.

That series of follow up tweets (you can read the others if you dare click on the link to go to the thread on X) are objectively Trumpian.

It’s fucking hilarious watching these people who are barely qualified to tweet about football flailing around in a pitiful attempt to pontificate about matters of law that they plainly don’t understand.

No chance we want our day again

Did you mean 'No chance we want our day again' or 'No chance! We want our day again!'? I fucking hope it's the latter!

Puts Arsenal in the shitter apparently, £200m in shareholder loans that could see them breach PSR.

Just be turned into equity or some business jargon shite like that

Relegate the cunts to the National League! Fucking cheats.

Where's that bald vampire **** on arsenal TV when you need him..
Cheating Tarquin twats.

City brought their trophies to the hearing so spurs declined to attend as they were afraid of getting that close to a trophy.

Good one!

Fucking fabulous.

Be good to get @slbsn take on this.

He’s ploughing through the 164 pages, give him a chance! (Though he’s posted a few snippets on X - Mr Herbert (who he?) seems to have almost perjured themselves).

And the frightening aspect of it is that more people than not will simply read their nonsensical pontifications and take them as gospel.

Tim Lewis at Arsenal is going to be pulling his hair out now.

U can tell hes an exec at arsenal even his hair has bottled covering his head

There's a huge opportunity here for City to show the Premier League and our rivals up for what they are.

I would like to see a bold statement, to publicly acknowledge the findings and state that although we are entitled to damages, we will not be pursuing them. Advise that our only aim was to ensure a level playing field for all and suggest that we forego damages in the hope that these funds are reinvested into the grassroots level of the game.

Fuck that, take them for at least £300 million for reputational damage, the least they can do is pay for our new stand and hotel complex.
