I know what you mean but the entire “recording” story is being suggested by a few on here as some sort of silver bullet to the Premier League charges.
If the recording story was to be true then PGMOL and the Premier League would have serious questions to answer. In effect the league has been manipulated, either by match officials at their own or the behest of the league (or rogue elements therein) or unknown third parties. It would be devastating to the integrity of the league and as such I can’t see how it’s true or any recording directly proves that.
Regardless the Premier League would still have charges against us. The fact that we would be whistleblowers (ironically) in this context wouldn’t alter the charges. It would only sully our accuser.
The implication has also been that we are using evidence of criminal wrongdoing as leverage against disciplinary charges. Which is entirely different can of worms.
But the irony would be delicious.
Using "evidence of criminal wrongdoing" against disciplinary charges brought about by "evidence of criminal wrongdoing".
