I am worried that the verdict is many moons away.Something is going on. Three positive articles in the Sunday Times, the Guardian carrying the odd piece of impartial analysis, Oliver Holt making it clear that he is voting for Haaland as player of the year and arch-critics suddenly changing their tune.
However, I'm not inclined towards the belief that they are reacting, collectively, to threats coming from the club. After all, it would be easier to respond to such threats if you believe them, simply by saying nothing.
My guess is that they are being briefed by their usual sources that the case against us is not going to substantiate the claims they have been making for the last 10 years and, essentially, they had better rein in the rhetoric in case it backfires. If that guess is correct, and, obviously it may be just wishful thinking, I'd expect a result to be known relatively sooner rather than later.
1. The chairman has not announced the other members of the tribunal.
2. The PL have not told us what the charges consist of, just listed the rules allegedly broken.
3. Mood music from the PL seems to be: no hurry chaps.
Meanwhile Henry Winter will continue to talk about ‘doubts about City’s funding’. What doubts, Henry?

And he's the judge who sent the innocent Timothy Evans to the gallows instead of serial killer and necrophile John Christie.Reminds me of the judge Mr. Christmas Humphries who was a Buddhist.
There used to be an Optician in Monton called D. Igoe.During my working days I knew a Robin Banks and a Susan Perb.
I don’t suppose there is a rule, but it would be a bit silly to hold a tribunal of anonymous assessors. This is not a matter of national security.I hope you’re wrong.

It would be like the Spanish Inquisition. I expect.I don’t suppose there is a rule, but it would be a bit silly to hold a tribunal of anonymous asssessors.

I don’t believe they’d change without a serious threat, it’s been a complete turnaround, popcorn time.
1. For the chair they wanted someone very well versed in football finance. He's an Arsenal fan. Is there anyone out there who understands football finance who would come to the matter with no previous affiliation, or prejudicial interest?I am worried that the verdict is many moons away.

Maybe his advice is already that he may need to recuse himself if the first legal question is whether it is right to go fishing for malpractice at one club based on criminally-leaked emails unless all other clubs were subject to the same scrutiny.

Highlight was chucking the word "bitter" in there if we achieve the dream and don't get acknowledged as one of the greatest ever sides. Brilliantly handled. :)Just about the game tonight! Usual stuff mentioned. Is it revenge, is treble on etc.

It doesn’t say much about the Premier league and it’s rule book where they charge a team and then can’t confidently go about deciding what type of punishment they should receive in an efficient period of time. Having to appoint an independent panel to adjudicate shows how much of a farce this is, surely the Premier league should be confident of their case and evidence to proceed, instead they have sat on this for over 3 years whilst the team they are trying to put in the dock wins their competition numerous times. If and that’s a big if, we manage to win the league this season it’s going to be awkward as hell Richard Masters handing the trophy over to City, as fans we should be as vocal as possible. It won’t look good for their product having that beamed all round the world.

interesting. How do you prepare for an interview like that mate? Do you go the politicians route of having a few key phrases and use them irrespective of the question or is it all free format?I knew what I was doing! Subtle but polite. Glad you noticed haha

Honestly, i literally didn't think about it at all until i clicked on the video call. Done a fair few of these now so im just used to them. They're quite straight forward really so its not too difficult. It's pretty good fun really
