PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[oakiecokie]

I hope nobody looks too closely at the Swales years. (Two for you, one for me.)

How very dare you !! Mr. Swales had no skeletons in his closet. ;)

So are we relegated yet or what? Need to find my chelsea shirt

We could all be going to York away. Again.

One morning we will find out all the charges have been dropped, quietly.
That will be it, no fan-fare no yellow ticker, nothing.
All of these 35000+ posts will be in vain.
C'est tout!

I know I've said it before on this thread but for those that missed it, I find it funny that they didn't have concerns over our accounts going back to 2007 and 2008 when Shinawatra owned us. Not a chance the current ownership is anything like as dodgy as he was!

Unfortunately the PL hadn't brought in the P&S rules then, so we were free to be run by that nutter!

I was more pissed off at him for not putting any filling in that shite Thai food before his first home game.

Even the Cali Cartel under the Orejuela brothers wasn’t as dodgy as that!

It is defined in some way, namely under section 32 of the Limitation Act 1980, which states that the period of limitation shall not begin to run until discovery of the fraud [by the PL], or [when the PL] could with reasonable diligence have discovered it.

With diligence, the PL could have started investigating when Der Spiegel first published their allegations in November 2018. But they were only allegations. There still hasn't been any "discovery of fraud". The failure of the PL to investigate in 2018 surely must count against them.

I think you misunderstand what I was trying to say. If the charges are based on the alleged conduct around the Der Spiegel articles then the printing of the article has to constitute discovery by the PL, or at the very least activates the reasonable diligence arm. It would be preposterous of them to argue otherwise.

I wouldn't be surprised of they did nothing as they planned to pile on after the Cas verdict which they were told by Gill and Parry would be guilty. I seem to remember Tebas tweeting something about their rules having no time barring, this is all you need to know about the collaborating behind the scenes to nail us.Hopefully we confirm we are the Best Club in all the Land and all the World off the field as well.
