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

So who do we think is on City side…

Aston Villa
Newcastle
Chelsea (?)
Forest (?)
Everton (?)
Leicester

Assume PL must think they will get it through, but our argument should hit 2 sets of clubs, those against the rule and those who must take a sensible view of we need to get it right.

We could find other clubs (not the obvious agreeing with us).

Not sure why there’s a ? against Forest. They are as nailed on as Villa.

Yes. Fwiw, I think it comes down to how Chelsea and Everton decide to vote. And there may well be he a handful of abstentions as this is all getting needlessly confrontational. If 6 other clubs abstain, then five against kills it in any case.

I am still amazed the PL are going ahead with it. They (or should I say the cartel) seem to be desperately trying to stop something really significant happening, imho.

I’ve posited before, and I certainly don’t mind repeating it again, the cunts don’t know what they’re doing.

Ta, when is it then?

It is now tomorrow…… (unless the PL pull the vote during the course of today…..)

Obviously my memory is definitely going, could have sworn it was JBJ.

Juke Box Jury rated songs as Hit or Miss, they didn’t give marks out of five. Hopefully tomorrow will be a miss for Richard Masters’ latest re-release (clumsy attempt to keep on-topic….)

 

[give it to gordon]

Will clubs be taking legal advice before voting or just relying on what the pl have told them ?

Find it odd that some lawyers would be advising their clients to vote for illegal rules. Or advising them to vote before the panel have announced its recommendations.

How the fuck can they expect to win a case when they couldn’t even list the charges correctly that they’ve been investigating…….

As soon as they were told they’d got that wrong, they should have known it’s beyond their capability.

Some lawyers will advise voting against and yet be ignored by their clubs, others may think that the amendments are lawful.
Wait and see must be our watchword.

That’s a directly connected example, but there are many others. For an organisation that size, that carries such strategic and economic importance to the UK, it’s astonishing how inept the PL is.

I expect that is likely to be further underlined this week.

A punter is always at liberty to ignore the sensible advice they’ve been given!
