PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

So what do we think is going on with Everton's points deduction? I can't see any reason for the delay in the appeal decision unless it's something strategic.

Everton appealed on December 1, that is nearly 3 months ago now. If the PL wants all matters for 2022/23 settled before the end of the season, they need to get a move on. But they can't speed up the process now without claims that they aren't treating the other (Forest and second Everton) charges seriously, or, at least, in accordance with precedent. Seems to me they are trapped between a huge rock and an incredibly hard place of their own making.

Whatever they do, there will be an enormous shit-storm, is my guess. Shame.

What about the sponsorship money that Liverpool get from Standard Chartered Bank- fined millions for money laundering and banking countries/ businesses that are currently sanctioned. Nobody mentions this?

Small note but they weren’t fined for money laundering. They were fined for poor money laundering controls.
 
There have been a couple of murmurs on this thread that perhaps Jim Ratcliffe might be looking for United to have a better off the pitch relationship with City which in turn might be a good thing for us with regards to the PL investigation. All speculative of course but it was interesting seeing some of his comments about us. In addition to the below, there was also reference to Berrada’s departure and how amicable the discussions were compared to Newcastle digging their heels in over Dan Ashworth:

"They are one of the best teams on the planet," Ratcliffe said of Man City, champions of England for three years running.

"We have a lot to learn from the noisy neighbour, and our other neighbour [Liverpool]. They are the enemy at the end of the day and there's nothing I would like better than to knock both of them or one of them off their perch.

"But equally, we are the three great northern clubs and we're all quite close to each other," he added.

"They've been in a good place for a little while. Both of them. There are things to be learned from both of those clubs.

"They've got sensible organisations, great people in the organisations and a driven elite sort of environment that they work in. And as a consequence, the results have dropped out of the bottom. So I'm very respectful of them, but they're still the enemy."
