PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Phil1]

Not that one that the ship hit!

Not even for 50m?
Bet there’s some decent scrap value there. :-)

I don’t know who told you that mate but Liverpool paid £50m for plans to be drawn up for a new stadium.

That’s seems the going rate to me so I doubt they can be touched.

Fair market value, definitely.

I need a few million. I have the back of a fag packet that I can use to draw up some plans for that shithole in Trafford. If £50m is the going rate I would happily do it for a tenth of that!

They wrote to CAS, asking them to allow the punishment to be actioned before the appeal. Charming, I must say.

I thought they wrote to CAS asking them to not delay the decision into the next season (when several of the 8 would likely not have as good a chance of getting into UEFA competitions).

As City weren't trying to delay it into the next season, it had no effect.

I don't know but I wouldn't think there was a mechanism for a club to request another is investigated, or accuse another etc.

Our one came about because of the der speigel articles claiming all sorts, and uefa opening an investigation. Which the PL then decided they needed to follow suit.

The Chelsea one came supposedly as a result of self reporting.

Other than that, there would need to be something with some sort of substance in the public domain to make them investigate.

Although 8 clubs did feel they had the right to write a letter to Uefa when our case was in the headlines, so who knows.

There is a rule that they can investigate those clubs concerning acting in good faith towards other members of the Premier League. They obviously ignore their own rules when it suits them.

The going rate? I don't think so. We work with multi million pound developers and I know 'plans' don't cost that much. Unless it's a gsovenment scheme obviously.

So it was a ruse to not fail FFP?

Those pesky scousers had us all there...

(Was being ironic mate)!

 

[Essex blue]

So let’s just hack the scousers computer system for evidence which we can manipulate and give to the Guardian news paper group!

 

[meltonblue]

The interests do

Yeah I meant just the debt. They got a pretty good interest deal on it didn’t they?

 

[cheekybids]

And did you ever see the architects plans for Anfield circulating at that time ? Looked like they had been drawn up by a 10 year old on a Commodore 64 - embarrassing 80’s graphics.

My arse they spent £50m with no construction started.

I wonder what the losing bid was for drawing up plans….

Isn’t that worst than paying secretly to mancini ?
