PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Shortly
1. Explained the gravity of the whole case and possible consequences if we are fund guilty. Relegation at least, but much, much worse to expect. Basically a nuclear Armageddon compared to Everton and NF cases that are pure
skirmishes between two insignificant countries (my allegory)
2. According to his own experience dealing with similar cases, he does not see how EPL can prove anything
3. Was very specific, in spite of Jordan's butting in, that not assisting or being helpful to EPL in the whole process is not some grave offence and charge - there are 35 of those I think - that many journos and pundits very often quote, but they are a normal legal strategy in complicated litigations.
4. He touched on Everton as well (if you are interested :) ) and they should not be happy what he said. Sorry Evertonians.

I don't thibk it can possibly be that, re differently length of limitations. Different interpretation of the same evidencs, sure (we saw that at CAS as well). But different limitations would then reinforce the basic (and false) throwaway that we got away with it with Uefa due to timebarring, when the club have claimed thatbeven the time barred evidence was in order and consistent with the rest, and CAS did not argue that.

Wasn't the lack of similar limitations affecting the PL, cited as one of the reasons UEFA's time barred evidence would finally be used to sink City?

HOWEVER, City had already submitted a defence response to UEFA's time barred accusations, but it was CAS who ruled it was all inadmissible because of time limitations.

This didn't stop they baying knuckle-draggers in the media & opposition fans from claiming we'd got away with the UEFA charges on a time-barred technicality. \0/

I said sometime back if City had cooked the books with inflated sponsership deals the likes of Etihad Airways,Nik Puma and other named sponsers would have to have been involved and complied to this ! Tha chances of that are laughable. And as the guy explained despite Jordon's attempts to continually interrupt him, a quango commission of the Premier League would be completely out of its depths in trying to proof it and would be impossible to do so !
 
Just noticed Talksport clipping up Stefan out of context in the bulletin. Set it up like he simply said there can only be one outcome(relegation)... At least they didn't cut the end bit off, where he said 'if the allegations are proven'. They are still terrible though.

Have they started turning the live chat off and comments for the Simon Jordan show or is it just when they know they are doing 'creative reporting'?
