PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Ballosteve]

Exactly. There's zero evidence that the UAE government has interfered in this matter, but the assault on us is clearly political in the wider sense of the word. Therefore, while I'm happy we'll clear our name once evidence has been heard, why shouldn't WE make it political as well?

100% this

I marvel that they think we can’t spot them!

A lot of people thought the Athletic paper was the second coming before they realised soon after that the publication is full of clickbait wankers.

Absolutely.

But all the usual suspects will pick-up on the question posed in the Athletic with glee and will be set in stone forever and repeated ad infinitum.

"We asked Manchester City whether they had any comment in relation to the fact such correspondence exists and that if they are not state-owned or funded, then why are the UK government concerned about jeopardising relations between the UK and UAE?"

That bold bit makes me laugh. Crafton went to Cambridge University and yet he couldn't figure that out.

It never ceases to amaze me who the fuck the PL are accusing of cheating and the ramifications in doing so

Yeah, but if the Abu Dhabi Government contacted the British government, in order to influence an ongoing investigation or to make it go away, then that doesn't look very good, does it?

Especially if we are adamant that City are not state owned, so why is the Abu Dhabi government getting involved in a football matter?

If the intention was to have their day in court, you wouldn't be knocking on the door of number 10, as some people on here have mentioned, threatening to cancel Billions of investment.

If that is the case, then the charges have to have some merit.
