PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[manimanc]

Good morning fellow blues.

Have we all recovered from the shock of yet another attempted hatchet job from the British media?

So what The mardarse gooner and jonny spare teeth lawton was saying is they, and only them two, have had access to our accounts, not only access to our accounts but access to statements/documents from 10 years ago!!

Yeah OK. That's sounds sensible.

I'm picturing the scene from Blackadder where baldrick says he has a cunning plan and blackadder says hmm yes I may have spotted one tiny flaw in your cunning plan baldrick......it's bollocks.

As if piers morgan stock couldn't get any lower.

I'm just off to buy my treble t-shirt, fuck em.

Lawton on Talksport now….sounds like a fucking snivelling prefect trying to impress the headmaster.

Brazil to be fair to him said even if it’s true it’s only £30m, it was over 10 years ago now and they were just trying to catch up to the established elite & he doesn’t agree with FFP.

Lawton sounded gutted when Brazil said I don’t think Pep lies in bed awake at night thinking about this does he.

They probably know it's a big fat nothing sandwich

And went into full stammering mode when asked about RM spending and 'who owns Everton and what abut all their spending'?

Yeah, Lawton leaves the studio shaking his head thinking I need a bit more on this, that shit I had last night wasn't that groundbreaking. The pathetic rag ****

Sounds excellent that

I wouldn't give that **** Morgan the satisfaction of an official response. He should concentrated on his phone hacking case the despicable fucker.

The desperate high calorie c*nt is also obsessed in stalkong and bullying Meghan.

Also, just a thought here. While I could understand the PL maybe including this in their investigation as it ultimately didn't get judged on at CAS due to time-barring, the payments were in 2012 and 2013 in respect of the 2011/12 and 2012/13 seasons. UEFA FFP existed then but CAS ruled it was time-barred. However, Premier League FFP didn't even exist until the start of the 2013/14 season so surely that post-dates those payments, hence meaning that from a Premier League point of view there is no case to answer on this particular issue?

This is what I thought too. To be honest, I don’t get half of this shit, FFP is just a load of made up bollocks. To me, it reeks of desperation, they are pinning their hopes on a sponsorship deal ten year back before the prems FFP came into place.

If we get cleared, I don’t think the accusations will ever stop. It’s going to keep rolling for years and this is what all this is about, tarnishing our reputation.

 

[we are the east stand]

Sounds excellent that

Was expecting it to go the usual way but fair play to Brazil he had me smirking as he gave it to Lawton

 

[NJMCFC184]

Yeah Brazil went onto ask about Madrid and who owns Everton, Lawton didn't wanna know , as said this isn't something City, UEFA or the PL didn't know about, Morgan tried to make it an exclusive.

Can't see that being true, if it was they could say, city have been drug using, took a billion off a uae drugs barron to fund the take over, we obviously couldn't prove we haven't so according to you we would be guilty, doesn't make 1 ounce of sense

I think your taking it to an extreme there, I would say in this hypothetical case that if somehow it got through the enquiry period with no evidence (and who would sign that off) that an application would be made to strike out the charge due to insufficient evidence that would be upheld and the verdict would be damning to the other side (even if you went down wild conspiracy everyone was against us, it would get out to the courts that one due to the unfair nature).

You may find this has been done in our case since the charges and on the day of the independent panel that we will face far less then the 115 charges. However, dependent on what the accusation is at that point we where be the ones with burden of proof (that doesn’t mean we have to do it beyond doubt).

We then have my issues with the links between the independent panel and PL (which is not an accusation of conspiracy or corruption, just the slight marginal gains the PL will have).
