PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[hello]

Same rules must be applied ?
awkward ;)

Is that why they practice the fire drill when we play them?

Love that idea - many would contribute

Something like this but with the faces of each of our enemies on each person and the Premier League logo in the middle lol (note AI generated, hence all the weird spellings)

Or these

I also think that if we do beat all the charges, we do a 115 countdown animation on the big screens like we did mocking the rags banner when we won the first PL title

How would a club know what a manager was being paid by other unrelated parties and how can they be punished if they did not know ? And why is it anyone’s business other than perhaps the tax man. Why should the club inform the league and not the manager ? Why should the league know ? In other lines of work your bosses do not need to know or if they do it’s only if it’s a conflict of interest and they don’t need to tell anyone else. It’s only really an issue in regulated financial services and maybe a few other industries

The regs state the manager needs to provide the info that the clubs need to fulfil this requirement. I guess a club could write it into the managers contract then if they breach the rule they can sue the manager for breach of contract or claim ignorance as mitigation. Ultimately I don't know :)

Not just idiots unfortunately. Had it last night with someone senior at Deloittes, of all places. "115", "cheats", "dirty money"...etc. Pointed out that he ought to hope we're exonerated as his firm signed off on things - looked taken aback.
My wife quickly moved the ensuing silence along.

Brilliant

The biggest negative for the PL case against Mancini is that his consultancy contract started while he was Inter manager and before City had been taken over, then was amalgamated on our books purely so this type of speculation couldn't occur. They only know about it because we told them we're doing it.

Proving that City used a contract signed before Sheikh Mansour owned City as a renumeration for a management contract for Mancini, in the years before FFP was even a thing, and during the time that City lost £197m is going to take some doing. Good luck to them.

This would be a good time for 1894 to put a massive banner together, in the style of those ultras things, like the one they did about UEFA, stating that FPP is to close the door on competition or something. It would get media coverage and state the club's case well. Arsenal would have been perfect. I'd contribute.

"FPP - Damaging the Many to Protect the Few" or "FPP - Closing The Drawbridge" with the badges of Liverpool and Arsenal in it os summat like that.

The only problem if that banner is in the south stand it is easy for the cameras to avoid it. I do realise it would be the 1894 lads doing it but for effect and wider viewing it needs to be in the East stand.
Obviosly only my opinion and I have no wish to tread on anyones toes;-)

theres an article floating about this morning saying we should have a 690 point deduction and be relegated, but heres the kicker when we get back in to the prem each time we start on negative 690 points so you start the season already relegated and then work the points off......

Crazy how much people are desperate for city to be found guilty. It really does show mob mentality is not just in person but is digital too.

That's a letter not an article. Still insane mind
