PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[give it to gordon]

I cant wait for an American club to announce a multi million pound shirt sponsor with Smith and Western

Newcastle in the next couple of years will take our place as the club of hate, just like we took Chelsea's (Abramovich), we will become one of the accepted elite again just like Chelsea.

This is well worth a watch

I was really surprised with Steve Parish saying that what City owners gave brought to the league & the town is positive. He was certainly clear that he had no idea or involved in any of the charges against City.

I’ve heard him in the past slag us off so it’s a very welcome turnaround.

Crime fighting guns though, the guns used at school shootings are from the middle east.

This is what I don't understand.

Consider this. You are a member of a golf club. You are sleeping with the Chairman's wife. You make a minor infraction of the club's rules, but the Chairman puts you through a process, they find you broke the club's rules and fine you a million pounds.

What the legal experts on here seem to be saying is that, as long as the process was followed properly, you are fucked. No matter what evidence you have against the charge, no matter if the punishment is disproportionate, no matter who is judge and jury. As a legal "layman", I find it hard to believe that that really is the situation.

HHSM is sleeping with Masters' wife..?

In the two Gary Neville interviews , Parish comes across as a very decent man, hugely impressive individual.

I’ve had similar to that by scousers. Main one is we picked 2 judges & no other reason. The funny thing is those notions have been put in their head by the MSM.

You can’t fix stupid.

I’ve been interested to read & compare some of the Ivan Toney betting scenarios (don’t want to call it a scandal because it’s not) to that of our own charges. Not the same I know, but two similar stories being played out in two completely different directions. Firstly I don’t hear 232 separate charges on loop for his indiscretions, there is no cheat narrative, no mass outrage, and he certainly wasn’t found guilty before he had a chance to defend himself, there where leeks that he’d admitted the charges (typical football authorities) but definitely no press pile on, in fact the general consensus has been one of sympathy, even Waistcoat has been out defending him, if he didn’t play for plucky Brentford or wasn’t English he’d of been thrown to the dogs methinks, and had he scored winners against certain red teams the press would be screaming for the return of points, and telling the FA to ger-on with it, as it is there seems a greater understanding, patience and sympathy being shown, as well as an allowance for due process, now compare that to our ten year struggle

I agree, but the best qualified opinion on here is from Projectriver and that is his position.

I get your point, on the narrative around it. I think the more relevant comparison, as a few have previously pointed out, is Everton.
