PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Stevieatlasblue]

When something like this dropped no new members for the last month should allowed on here and locked to only sign in members!

Because we will get to many none city fans on here taking the piss!!

Sounds a sensible suggestion this one.

I thought it was the taliban?

No, we wanted a telly ban cos the pundits are crap.

Its the american influence that would like a salary cap...even a draft system i bet. Chelsea sre not part of the red cartel. Thats why they are selling up. Saudi / PSG / Us .. have deeper pockets

I'd have no problem with a salary cap, if it was in any way practical. It's a salary cap that's linked entirely to revenues that's the problem. If the rags can only spend as much on wages as Wolves, bring it on.

At least Chesterfield's grounds improved since we last went there

York now has a capacity of 1.35 million

Just discussing this with my missus(solicitor) she says it would go against The Laws of Natural Justice not to have an avenue of appeal. No idea what that means, I’m the thick one in the family!

I don't think it's saying there's no right of appeal, just specifying where/how a club would appeal. (I'm not a lawyer, as I said - just giving my interpretation of the language.)

He's in court all day today. Hopefully tomorrow.

On an unrelated note, Soriano should go at the end of this season. Regardless of the rights and wrongs of the PL investigations, all of this stuff has happened under his watch, and City have flown too close to the sun too many times in the pursuit of maximum commercial growth.

Soriano wasn't appointed until 2012 from memory. These charges go back to 2009

please, please, please, City. go at these PL twats with the vicious enthusiasm of a rabid pit bull. and when you come out the other end victorious, please, for fuck sake sue the league for reputational damage.

make them regret ever having danced to the tune of the red top wankstains who think the league belongs to them.

We don't have to disprove it, they have to prove we did, to a reasonable standard.

Is that the UK law standard?

I thought it was beyond any reasonable doubt, or something. There is often reasonable doubt in these financial cases.

Vinnie will get us out the championship no problem

 

[Blue Mist]

Should we be worried?

Will you be at Chesterfield (away) our opening fixture next season ?
If the answer is yes, you've nowt to worry about.
Fuck 'em all, Parry, Gill, Wenger, the lot.
