PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[blueyorkie]

Been watching this while working. It's about as thrilling as our build-up play.

Slowly moving from side to side?

As already mentioned, that looks like City have already warned them that anymore of their bullshit and we’ll be taking action. Could be looking into it to much but good indication that City are expecting good news.

There we go now I guess. Within the next month for a 4th time

i don't see how city could claim victory if the serious charges where found to guilty where you could see the premier league claiming victory for non compliance

 

[DelToro]

As if Carragher reads

I think City would rather them go ahead and say whatever, then take them to court. Sky on the other hand will NOT want their fanboy pundits shooting their mouths of.

overall tone is markedly different, they rarely miss a chance to pile on yet they have here - FWIW

Last time the premier league claimed a victory was the APT case and look how that went! Reading that tweet though, am I reading it right thinking that City have told the premier league to warn all the outlets etc about sticking to facts if we have won and not the usual time barred, technicality terminology etc?

 

[richards30]

Also, slightly concerning that the premier league are talking about punishments and appeals?

I think the club will want to treat this differently to the CAS verdict. Anyone even hinting that we’re still guilty and they’re getting it. Let it be known now. The reputation of the club needs healing and cracking down on wankers like Carragher is the way forward.

 

[bernard o'silver]

it is 770 days since this first post on this thread.
the day it all began.

777 has huge importance in numerology.
it signifies embracing silence and trusting in a positive outcome.
it is considered an auspicious sign and good luck
(auspicious means promising future success, favourable).

7-7-7 is used on most slot machines as the winning jackpot.

7 days to go

Sky have emailed all their pundits warning them to tread carefully when discussing 115. Telling them both sides may claim victory and any punishment will probably be subject to appeal. I said the other day on here I reckon we’re getting done for something but we’ll appeal and win. This is going to drag on and on I think

It would be a shame if this factfile got leaked.

Officials at Sky have also shared a factfile on the long-running case which has seen the competition effectively at war with its champions.

...

The matter is viewed as a huge, significant and complex story – which is underlined by bosses taking what is an unusual step ahead of a verdict expected 'within the next month or so'. The factfile also features a timeline and key quotes.

 

[argyle]

This is how I think it will play out. Just like the other case with both sides claiming victory.

I don't think it will be a clear cut decision.

Surely that makes a lot of sense.

 

[Mcfc1.9.8.0]

That sound like we have won some and we have lost some if that’s the case we are going to be guilty in everyone’s eyes. We need to be 100% cleared

 

[Ric]

I think City probably warned Sky after that Tim Sherwood incident, and they don’t want to risk us taking legal action next time.

Here’s a stirring anthem for "The Unfraudulant Frauds," written to the tune of "The Impossible Dream
Ai wrote this. I think it's a good fit if we win

**(Verse 1)**
To fight the unyielding fight,
To stand through the darkest of nights,
To wear our badge with pride,
Though the critics may jeer and deride.

**(Chorus)**
This is our quest, to stand as one team,
To battle the odds, fulfill every dream.
To cheer in the face of all doubts that may rise,
For we are the frauds who uncover their lies.

**(Verse 2)**
To endure and to never give in,
For truth and for justice to win,
To hold to the love of our name,
And prove to the world we're untamed.

**(Chorus)**
This is our quest, to stand as one team,
To battle the odds, fulfill every dream.
To cheer in the face of all doubts that may rise,
For we are the frauds who uncover their lies.

**(Outro)**
Though the journey is long, we will see the light,
Together we march through the endless night.
With our badge, our pride, we’ll reclaim the stage,
The unfraudulant frauds, the heart of the age!

I don’t think that’s a realistic scenario tbh.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Our lawyers are getting on the front foot :)

Sky getting their ducks in a row, probably following Warnock’s outburst of ‘Guilty’ when the CAS report fell.
