PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Newman Noggs said:
Given the likely, seismic repercussions of this decision, and, given the unseemly dispute as to who had won last time, is it beyond the bounds of possibility that the club and the PL would try to issue statements that were agreed or, at least, were consistent with each other ?

Much as we want City to go in for the kill if it has gone our way, I'm not sure any potential domesday scenario is in either party's interests.

The PL and a clique of rival Club Directors have acted in bad faith from day one. Some of them are still briefing the media. The new narrative is that whatever the result football is the loser. City are “getting off” with it. There is no middle ground with them. The least we should demand is a clear out of the PL Board and new rules on transparency. The PL Board is supposed to act for ALL its members equally.
 
Here is a quote from a recent tax tribunal involving Phil Thompson

"Thompson would also seek permission from Sky if he was going to work for another broadcaster. The FTT also heard that Sky had the right to require Thompson to express opinions that he did not believe or limit his own opinions. The FTT found that the control Sky had over Thompson’s services was significant."

Confirms what we probably already knew.

Yep but now Americans have come are coming to ruin a game they've never liked never understood just because is is a cash cow for there hedge fund backers!

They will change everything to suit their narrative there greedy owners hedge fund backers! Eventually I'd expect they'll be a premier league winner then they'll have a play off of the top four for the overall "real winners" they'll will reduce relegation to 1 team then have a play off for the other 1 team to go down!

They point there shills in the media towards us for the last 10/15 years now they have their sites on Newcastle! No one is mentioning the Americanisation of the English football through out all the leagues!

I've got no problem with genuine US owners who respect our values and are equitable, but I'm afraid an indeterminate percentage are of the neo-colonial variety.

like i said on another post, the injuries and disruption we have suffered this season have done for us, its no excuse because every team suffers injuries but they get allowances made for them, the rags have suffered less injuries than us but are excused for the shit show of a season because they have been injury hit, the dippers suffered TWO injuries (and not even to key players) and their quadruple, treble, double bid went out the window immediately, the tarquins lost two players in jesus and saka and id say only one of those was key, but our injuries are apparently inconsequential and we have no excuse for our drop off, quite frankly i think its a goddamn miracle we are fifth.

Virtually all clubs have been badly hit by injuries and fatigue. Even Liverpool have now hit a wall. The problem is the absurd schedule, especially the absurd international calendar. Pep will have to use a bigger squad next season than he usually does.
