PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Moss Side's Finest]

This is the same argument that Carragher has said.

Our evidence is our published accounts.

We don't have to do anything else as we're innocent until proven otherwise.

It's for the PL and their barristers to show what evidence they have they says our accounts are false.

You have just summarised perfectly the absolute farce that these 'charges' are, and how corrupt the UK media are to have people believing we are anything other than innocent.

All of the appropriate AND QUALIFIED auditors and government agencies have signed off on everything we have done. Yet a mickey mouse outfit like this PL panel, who know less about finance than many on here, have us as guilty with 90% of the UK population, and somehow we apparently need to try and prove we are innocent all over again

I'm going to love it when all the charges are time barred again, that will be piss funny. I can almost taste the anger

Thank you so much..I guess from your and other comments, it is not as bad as it appears..no doubt we will get a token fine..just wish to say your piece on the other thread was very informative and summed the case up concisely.
I suspect the longer this goes on , the weaker the PL case, as the Everton NF situation is that much clearer.

Government have written to Masters to publish the minutes of how they arrived at the Everton sanctions. For the legally educated who kindly keep us informed, does this have any potential relevance for us ?

They both admitted 'guilt'

We don’t know who’s going to be on the panel but I’m pretty sure there’ll be at least one member who knows a hell of a lot more about finance than almost anyone on here. If they’re taking this at all seriously

And if it's the same evidence as UEFA they'll fall flat on their fanny.

I have a question. If the PL do have evidence, are they not obligated to share those with us?

Of course they must do/have done. It would be pretty hard to rebut if the club don't know what they're having to explain/disprove.

Maybe another stupid question but can’t we just show them what we have and then it won’t have to go to the courts?

The point is, and it has been laboured many times. No matter who is on the panel, it's still a football industry based panel attempting to get involved in SERIOUS financial and legal matters it has no place being involved in. If they think we have commited fraud (although they're too scared to mention the F word), then it should be they who call in the relevant authorises and law enforcement agencies. The fact they haven't speaks volumes.
