PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[I'm Blue]

King Charles opening parliament today. One of the subjects is bringing in an independent football regulator. Looks like the sheikh has had word ;)

I do hope he has had a word.
Get all the big boys involved.
The hateful 8 think the pen is mightier than the sword, but Sheikh Mansour knows better.
Slay the fuckers : )

November 2022 thought clubs were dead set against a regulator and only City supported it ..

City were reported to be the only Premier League club supporting it, the others must be from lower leagues

Do we actually have a legit source for that or is it just a bluemoon rumour?

I don't get this non-cooperation nonsense as we disagreed with what they were asking for and took it to court. We then do cooperate when the judge says we are wrong (to what degree, we'll never know) and they then find us guilty of non-cooperation and fine us. Isn't that using coercion to force us to not take it to court in the first place?

The rules of the competition implore clubs to assist in any investigation that the league may engage in.

City are entitled to take a strategic decision that it’s better to refuse and take a fine than to assist a fishing expedition.

Ultimately though, the non-cooperation charges are likely to be slam-dunks as they are not subjective charges.

If City end up ‘only’ being guilty of non-cooperation, the board will be smoking cigars thicker than a Grealish calf….

Am i wrong in thinking that in this case the none co-operation issue for the documents or infoyrmation requested by the PL was put before the court and following their decision, complied with the requirements?
How us that non-co-operation?

I would guess that if the PL had requested we open our books for everyone to see in the last few years (ie before the accusations) that we would say no. Only guessing though.
