PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I know this may sound like a kamikaze approach but still…

Club said they have irrefutable evidence. Why not publish it on the City website? No need to wait, get the info out there. Show the payments and explanations then watch the fallout. Hit back against the media. I am not saying give the sensitive info that would aid our rivals but just the simple payment structure and the explanation.

We are losing the hearts and minds battle ground anyway.

It’s such a huge accusation that it’s unlikely the PL won’t find a way to make some of it stick.
The publicity now is serious & the PL decide which rules they are going to use against certain clubs - & which clubs are untouchable

Don’t know why, but today I feel we’ve been done & the only way we have a chance is if a truly independent regulator is appointed quickly.

Hard to make something stick if you don’t have the evidence and the Commission behaves professionally.

Mud will stick forever with a lot of the public because they want to believe City are guilty of cheating but that is different.

If the Commission arrives at conclusions that would not be supported in a court of law, then City will do everything they can to end up in a court of law.
 
Anyone who substantively conflates City and Everton is either thick, dishonest or possibly both. They bear absolutely no relation to each other, save arguably for the severity of the punishment, which can only be founded upon a finding of guilt against City.

Like you say, this is a fishing expedition where the punishment is the charges themselves. What we have been accused of is preposterous and needs to be supported by hard evidence of which there will be none.

Do you have inside knowledge that there is no “hard evidence”? Nobody on here has much idea what the evidence against us is, we know the charges but the evidence is only disclosed to City…two completely different things. My concern is that since the CAS verdict, the PL have got their hands on additional evidence which now merits them charging us and them feeling more confident about it. However, all the evidence they have needs to be made available to us ahead of the “trial” so there won’t be any bombshells dropped in court.

for two reasons:

1) those are confidential business related documents with regards to our business practices and they arent for everybodys eyes.

2) 99% of people who read them wouldnt understand them and would make even more ridiculous arguments and reasonings without the proper context, i see it my job all the time, everybody wants access to their medical documents with absolute no idea of what they are looking at and then they put 2 and 2 together and come up with the knowing the square root of fuck all and then proceed to get really angry about it.
 
"I fear our niceness will be our downfall." Speak softly and carry a big stick. People tend to equate being nice to being a mug. Being nice is a life choice, it doesn't necessarily make you an easy target.
as the dalai lama once said do not ever my mistake kindness for weakness.
