PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

He hasn't. If he had, his lawyers would be screaming it from the rooftops to try and reinforce their defence that he's a whistleblower and not a thief and a blackmailer.

I don’t think the Premier League could be seen to be trading in stolen information of one of their members and shareholders even if they legally could.

And I think I'm right in saying they had been edited for publication, with the originals being very different.

I wouldn't give them a single document even it was specifically related to something they got wrong. Make them work for everything. Make them detail every single charge, with everything they have (or don't have). Even if we have comprehensive and conclusive evidence, don't produce it until the last minute to torpedo them - cannot trust the slippery fucks. Don't rush to disprove something when they may ask us later for something we can't disprove, and look guilty because of the precedent we set.

I'm not sure they have subpoena power, so just like with UEFA, let them do all the work and then if all they are left with is 'failure to cooperate' that's a big loss for them, especially as we would spin it as 'wouldn't cooperate with a witch-hunt'. Then hopefully sue them for damages (or more likely store it up as leverage later) and get it in front of a more legitimate court/tribunal.

That trumped up charge list must be padded with things we refused to cooperate over, so they are "charging" us to try and get to the evidence they think might exist, but can't be sure. There is no way they have evidence for everything they are claiming. It's a shock and awe fishing expedition. Fuck them.

I really think we'll pretty much own the league when this is over.

Not very different TBH, pages 37 & 38:-


I suspect that the non-cooperation charge from both UEFA & The PL relate to the rest of your post :)

Technically, he's not been convicted yet. Although he did hack the police cyber terrorism team (or whatever their title is) AND the judges sat on the case so I can't see him walking free.

Thought id read he’d admitted it a while back? Might be my old age playing tricks on me!!

City are supremely confident, so are the PL by all accounts, it just feels somethings not quite right about the PL's bullishness. If we are totally cleared and proved so they're going to end up being sued , feels very high stakes this!

Feels like groundhog day ;)
