Who is the lad does anyone know him. A very happy thought provoking piece and as he say we have two experts who seem to support Citys stance.

And while certain clubs and parties run Uefa, leaks will not be investigated.
Pleased to see this update and commentary in the MEN based on an article published in the International Sports Review. An excerpt is below from the MEN. Come on City!
Ioannidis (leading sports lawyer and professor at Sheffield Hallam University) and Plumley (sports finance expert and also at Sheffield Hallam University) contend that the Premier League must instead prove its most damning allegations - held to a higher standard than a normal civil case because of their seriousness - to satisfy the judging panel.
"It would not be good enough for the Premier League to argue that Manchester City failed to co-operate with the Premier League’s investigation," they write. "The Premier League would have to go beyond this, by proving that Manchester City, as a matter of fact and evidence, failed to produce accurate financial information (and/or lied about it) in relation to their revenue, within the meaning of the current regulations.
"This is not an easy burden for the Premier League. But it should not be easy, because the allegations produced are of a very serious nature.
"Should the Premier League be able to discharge such a burden, the burden will then shift to Manchester City, who would, in turn, have to respond, and attempt to discharge it. The sliding scale, therefore, of the standard of proof, will be in full force and action here.

Premier League FFP charges for Man City could cause 'mutiny' as UEFA warned
Manchester City are preparing their evidence to refute strong accusations from the Premier League that could change the game

The one on the video overly concerned about other fans' opinions.
Think soriano election to the board is potential game changer

He’s said nothing that Stefan didn’t 6 months ago.
He brings a secondary school teacher approach to it, and a few bizarre analogies, but Stefan’s Spaces breakdown was far more insightful.

Overly harsh and pointless critique of a fellow blue simply fighting our corner.
He even states he doesn’t work in law and instead quotes a financial expert.
Might as well close down the thread if everyone’s being compared to a legal professional.

Yes, as excited as he is, it’s nothing new to anyone following this thread. In summary; they are very serious charges that require absolute proof.
He could help himself a little by spelling “prove” correctly rather than “proove” on the screen for all to tut at.
I don’t want to sound like a broken record but FFP was replaced by FSR over a year ago now. So 1. The court case cannot bring down something that is already obsolete and 2. If City win that doesn’t mean the end of FSR necessarily.
The death of FFP, the birth of FSR - Net Equity Rule
UEFA’s attempts to resolve the criticism of FFP have resulted in a new set of rules – the UEFA Club Licensing and Financial Sustainability Regulations. New measures have been introduced to ensure the sustainable future of European football. One such measure is the subject of this post – the Net...

The best point he makes is that we need independent governance.
Its more likely that the Saudi situation significantly alters FSR in my opinion.
Good luck to him though.
