PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[bluebanana83]

Wonder if this will get looked into? Or do they only go back as far as when City are concerned?

I thought it was a good statement, as it was never going to have detail.

Surprise... welcome the opportunity... but not attacking/criticising directly.
Struck me as being a fairly confident response, although I guess the alternative would be untihinkable in big business.

'Shit, we're fucked. You got us.'

This looks to me like it's been thrown together, as far as I can see there's no rule 15, 16 or 3? so does that mean they are charging us with rules that actually don't exist?

The mad thing is IF proven to be true, it’s the end of absolutely everyone high up at the club, including Sheikh Mansour. Club would be up for sale. Over 100 charges, Jesus Christ it does feel like we’re fucked.

Not a chance.

Ffp didn’t exist then ???

That's what I thought, as far as I can see it wasn't introduced to EPL until 2013-14..?
And haven't we been independently audited, no doubt under the closest scrutiny..?

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

The PL has been under pressure for years from certain members to charge us. Now they finally have but just before a white paper on independent football regulator seems suspiciously timed.

Part of me thinks we’re in deep trouble due to the sheer volume of charges. Part of me thinks that the sheer volume of charges is the PL throwing enough crap at the wall hoping some sticks.

Weren’t they under pressure from a judge to charge us as well?

Blue moon you started singing too soon,
We'll burn your regulations right down,
Our lawyers are coming to town!

 

[give it to gordon]

Can anyone remember when football use to be about football ?

 

[Crooked_rain]

Fuck em, this will drag out for a long long time and it’ll be what it’ll be. That’s for lawyers to sort. Most of it probably involves stuff most outsiders have no clue about anyway.

Best thing the players and playing staff and fans can do is get their act together, start performing and lift that trophy as two fingers up to these cunts

Is this about Freddie Pyes scrap yard ....again?
