City launch legal action against the Premier League

[Asa's left peg]

If the reports have all been written on the APT case, you can guarantee no news will be announced any time soon.

No chance Masters will allow more damaging news for the PL to get out until the dust settles on the Leicester case otherwise he will be gone before 115 starts.

I don't suppose there is any chance of say, Arsenal, leaking it?

According to this note Scruffy Jim sent me.

TBF - Given his involvement with Salford, he's always taken this stance. More so now that he's a majority owner.

Not unless we’ve lost…

Supposedly either all evidence still being considered or done and dusted. However I've seen nothing to say that this one will be publicly reported anyway. If it is decided in our favour we have a 2nd one to be considered which is the damages part due to lost sponsorship.

Could it be the verdict won't be announced until damages are awarded (if damages are required, of course).

I would think it should be announced straight away if some elements of the rules have been found to be against competition law, but an award for damages wouldn't take long anyway, I suppose.

The PL is destroying itself, La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A must be pissing themselves.

Building then destroying the worlds best league from within!!

With the Leicester verdict surely the other clubs caught up with this PR fiasco must go for the PL jugular, Masters is finished.

All to keep the rag fuckers happy

You are getting the cases mixed up.

This one, us challenging the PL, was heard in June and we are waiting for the outcome. The PL 115 case against us is about to start (see rather long thread).

Oh yeah wrong one:)

Can't wait for Martin Samuel's next article on PSR

I don't know who they appointed to write the rules but the fact Leicester can yo-yo and just avoid sanctions is a pretty spectacular fuck up and gives me confidence that there will be plenty more errors and inconsistencies we'll be all over.

I heard Kieran Maguire saying that like relegation was a good idea. Surely you start from fresh as soon as your promoted.

On a similar note I’m listening to a podcast around corruption in the Nixon era. When they signed the campaign finance bill they left loop holes in their for their own use.
