No worries mate. We're generally a good bunch, but like all families we have an oddball or two. :-)
In terms of the 115 charges, it's actually more like 5 breaches recurring from 2009 up to 2018, with non-cooperation breach included on every breach to dramatically bump things up for effect!
Someone gave a brilliant analogy saying imagine if you got into a fight & were charged with assault. You threw 20 punches, so were given an assault charge for every punch thrown. That's exactly what the PL have done with their breaches regarding City. Absolutely crazy!
As for Everton & Forest, their situation is totally different to ours. They've gone over their permitted losses & aren't contesting those breaches. However both are putting forward mitigating circumstance as to the reasons why they went beyond their permitted £105m loss over three seasons limit.
Everton are claiming issues to do with the pandemic & new stadium costs as mitigating circumstances, & Forest have been hit because two of the seasons affecting them were in the Championship, which has a £60m permitted losses over three seasons limit. If you recall, Forest had to buy a whole new squad the season they came up, as most of their promotion squad were loan players.
UEFA/G14 have made accusations of false accounting against City, & we've denied those accusations as I outlined to you previously, hence our situation being totally different & far more complex that those of Forest & Everton.
Fans of the "bigger clubs" are clamouring for our demotion to the Northwest Counties Sunday League, the stripping of every title & Cup won since 2009, a £1bn fine for every guilty breach (because our crooked owner can afford it), & for Haaland & Pep to be paraded naked to the gates of the dilapidated Old Toilet stadium & publicly flogged. ¯\_(⊙_ʖ⊙)_/¯
What opposition fans have failed to do is read beyond the sensationalist headlines & listen to anyone more coherent than the seriously unhinged Nick Harris who's apparently changed his name to Nick "City Are As Guilty As Fuck" Harris, to further get his anti-City agenda across.
Personally, I don't think the PL are driving this. Everone senses they know they're damaging their prized brand. It's the Red Top Mafia & Spuds who essentially run the PL who're behind this. The fans of Everton, Forest, Newcastle & Villa are slowly waking up to the reality of the situation.
Newcastle claim to be the richest club on the planet, but yet they can't afford the £7m loan fee City want for Kalvin Philips, through fear it'll tip them over the FFP edge.
However, ManUre & Spuds are in over £1bn debt each, but as long as they can make the bank repayments, they can spend several times the amount, debt-free Newcastle can. That's FFP/PSR for you!
FFP was never about debt. It was always about stopping City & PSG from challenging the European elite by creating a glass ceiling the chasing pack could never go beyond, hence protecting the hegemony of the G14 clubs.
The ongoing FFP/PSR gymnastics is all about further amending their rules to stop another City happening (as Newcastle & Villa are finding out), but in such a way it doesn't affect the Red Top Mafia & Spuds. It's a nasty business.
The issue the PL now have is that in constantly changing their rules so they can retrospectively keep going after City, everyone else is being caught up in their rules too, & they're threatening to kill by far the richest sporting league in history, all because of the Red Top Mafia & Spuds' deranged obsession of stopping City.
Look at this transfer window. Have you ever known one so quiet? Newcastle, Palace & WHU want Kalvin Philips on loan, but all are terrified of falling foul of FFP/PSR.
Ultimately, the PL are in the process of killing the goose which laid their golden egg, but if it stops City & an emerging Newcastle & Villa, the Red Top Mafia & Spuds don't care. Complete & utter madness! ¯\_(⊙_ʖ⊙)_/¯
