PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[halfcenturyup]

Keegan is another red **** I believe, of course the story about City's charges being dropped are bullshit

I'll believe the PL has briefed someone when Ziegler reports it first hand.

You learn something new every day...

I didn't realize they don't have the internet on the other side of the world.

He was posting shit to me a week ago so not sure where his month comes from

If deliberate, use of the word “resolve” by Masters is odd and could imply some sort of negotiation…Time will tell I suppose!

The mood music tells me that the PL has been told they're unlikely to make amy of the charges stick at a full tribunal so they have a decision to make - Drop all of the charges or plough on with some possibly opening themselves up to possible litigation as a result of pursuing charges that have ittle chance of success.
I'd expected an absolute avalanche of media assaults on City in the press we were still in with a shout of the title T this stage of the season and the the fact not much has happened indicates that the press has been warned by City and they aren't willing to take the risk. Even the Mail article was very tame by their standards.

It read like "Er no! No! Uh uh, they haven't at all! My mate told me!"

What, for him?

I just think he's a wum and a shit one at that. He sticks out like a zebra at an elephants only disco.

I clocked him the first day he piped up on here mate.

Lads like me and thee who’ve been here a long time have a nose for it.

OOF!

The fact that an online rumour has this many people in the mainstream media rattled to the point of them writing an article denying it tells me this rumour actually has some legs to it.

They've been dining off "115" for over a year and clearly they don't want the feeding trough to end just yet.

Hopefully the end is nigh. And when it is they won’t even be able to spout the racist driven hatred they do for fear of being sued to hell and back. Lovely stuff!

I have no idea who he is.

Because all other football forums are a safe heaven of reasoned debate and gentlemanly behavior. And as for Twitter...well, it's the last vestige of the sane.

There’s also a rumour that Man City broke 115 rules. I’m told that’s not true. Dickhead. Easy this journo job.

I was more interested in the whole phrase - 'the case will resolve itself at some point in the near future'... How's that then? Suggested to me that they don't have any control over it any more. Cases don't resolve themselves unless they fall apart and can't proceed (or the accused party fesses up), and if you're planning to present a killer argument to the tribunal then you'd expect your case to resolve it at the tribunal. Not for it to resolve 'itself'. Weird choice of phrasing, and I suspect, quite deliberate.

I think it's over myself, and they're currently begging City for ways to save face. Maybe they will throw them a bone, maybe not...

It is odd ,I agree, but then at the same time I don't think Masters is anywhere near smart enough to have used that word deliberately. More likely he's just a bit clueless as to how to answer the question put to him and that happened to be the word he chose which loads of us are now reading too much into.

Realise I've posted a couple of fairly negative posts on here today in terms of not getting over excited. Hopefully something concrete comes out soon and it turns out there is something to the multiple pieces of noise, but right now imo that's all it is.
