He just needs to change the words and paste them together (again) first

Just needs to sharpen his best crayons and write in his best neat handwriting ‘yeah we did it guv, you’ve got us bang to rights, it’s a fair cop’
That should do it.

'honest' Rui, the PLs star witness. Absolutely desperate

It’s going to get leaked. Forget the press. They could and probably will find out themselves. The football press have got too many contacts within other PL clubs. As we know, the football press works on behalf of the other PL clubs, especially the Red Shirt clubs. There’s no way the other 19 PL clubs and their representatives at the PL meetings are going to keep the decision a secret. The representatives will have to be informed by the PL about the decision as any compensation paid to City affects their clubs. They will have to pass that information on to the owners and directors of the other 19 PL clubs. Somewhere along that line, and further down that line, maybe, the decision will be leaked.

We don’t need anyone to leak the decision, it will be apparent when they publish the 24/25 Premier League Rule Book.

Either the updated rules will be in there, or they won’t.

This is the most likely out come, first off we fans will not find out which part we win, second City might be the only club told of the outcome, it will look bad if we leak it. Compensation may not be monitory, and we may not relate the sackings to the crime. ultimately the PL can not afford to publicly admit guilt.

I think the PL clubs meet every month. The last meeting was 2 weeks ago.
Either the decision is quick and done by the July meeting, or it'll have to be by the August meeting for the reason @domalino says about the rulebook.

As it's known that there was arbitration of this, I don't see a reason why the PL would not issue a short statement as every club will know the outcome. I expect that the clubs will all also receive the arbitration summary report before the meeting so they can agree on the rulebook.

Not seen an acknowledgement that the case is going on from either Prem or City.

We will see the rule dropped if we win, but i do not believe the PL will inform any club, other than those involved of the outcome, it was a multi pronged attack, so not all accusations are guaranteed to win, some are incredibly important to the PL, certainly i would not trust some with the results. and i am expecting some vague waffle as to why the rule can not be implemented at this time.

Fair point, but at the point the rulebook comes out there will be questions. I don't see how the PL can avoid answering them.

If the PL are forced to revert to the previous version, all it will say is that legal advice was that the amendment was not sustainable and that the PL will therefore revisit the issue during the next season.

But all 20 PL clubs are involved by definition.

The PL clubs voted for a change, therefore they must be informed if the change failed in any way. This isn't Masters and the PL exec doing it off their own bat.

I doubt that any prospective rule change or vote is dropped on clubs at the meeting without any prior notice. It won't have all the details of the hearing, just the salient judgments.

This is almost the best news possible. To only announce now he has ‘far more incriminatory evidence’ instead of releasing it previously, suggests to me the PL don’t have enough proof in the 115 case, and the red twats are doing everything possible to stir shit up.

It might also give us a clue that last weeks hearing went in our favor, as the timing of this ‘scoop’ can’t be put in the ‘coincidence’ category.

More spliced and doctored emails incoming! The premier league have obviously been back to him begging have you got anymore stuff on city cos we can’t nail em! Something! Anything!!!!
