PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Mention our name anywhere in the UK/Europe I would guarantee a majority would think of Pep, Aguero, Haaland and dodgy dealings, a oversimplification but hopefully you get my point.

Would a major global brand want to invest 100s of millions into us until we are 100% cleared of the serious charges, I would say no.
They already are surely??
 
WE HAVE COOPERATED. BELATEDLY. NOT EARLY ENOUGH TO AVOID A CHARGE OF NON COOPERATION, BUT ENOUGH FOR THE PL TO CONDUCT THEIR INVESTIGATION. IF TOLMIES HAIRDOO IS CORRECT, AND HE USUALLY IS, WE HAVE GIVEN THE PL ENOUGH DOCUMENTATION TO FILL A PORTAKABIN. SO THE NON COOPERATION CHARGE OF WHICH WE ARE IMO GUILTY IS NOT “YOU DIDN’T GIVE US THE DOCUMENTS AT ALL”, IT IS “YOU DIDN‘T GIVE US THE DOCUMENTS WE ASKED FOR WHEN WE ASKED FOR THEM.”


NO. SEE ABOVE.


I have replied by including my answers in capitals in the post above

The use of capitals is purely for ease of identification of my comments. im not shouting at you.

Honestly.
Capitals normally means one is shouting! Either way it’s given me a headache lol.
 
Some are, but as said previously, Shirley after the last decade we should have got more, especially on the shirt/stadium.
Not sure - according to reports, we’ve got highest commercial income.

I thought our owners would want to keep the Etihad sponsorship on shirts & stadium but that’s just my thoughts - no info to back it up
 
As a lay person, I just can't understand why this would take 4 years to resolve. How about this timetable

1 Sponsorship of MCFC by Aabar within the PL rules 1 week

2 Sponsorship of MCFC by Etisalat within the PL rules 1 week

3 Sponsorship of MCFC by Etihad Airways within PL rules 2 weeks

4 MCFC use of image rights within PL rules 1 week

5 MCFC payments to Roberto Mancini within PL rules 1 week

6 All non cooperation charges 2 weeks

7 Summary, conclusions and decisions 4 weeks.

That's 3 months done and dusted, get into a project planner and get it done. I think the Bernie Madof case took less than 4 years !!!
The average time to sell a house in the UK is 4-6 months after a deal is struck.

So 4 years seems super fast in the eyes of Lawyers!!
 
Being totally thick here but in a way the police have to get the CPS to say we have a reasonable case to get a conviction ,
Is this panel similar to the CPS in the way it can say this lots not going to stand up and dismiss it or have we gone past this point and the allegations will definitely be heard ?

No, the PL has made its own decision to bring charges against us. We don't know, but it's a fair guess, that they had access to high quality legal advice in making that decision.

The panel is the independent tribunal that has to decide whether the charges brought by the PL - all 115 of them - are made out.
 
Here's a question.

Presumably at CAS, all the documentation presented as evidence is collected and filed confidentially at CAS somewhere?

What about the "independent" PL panel? Does all the evidence get collected and handed over to the PL?

No, it's the other way round. The only evidence the panel will have is that which either the PL or MCFC provides them with.

But that will be a lot.
