Could a kind soul please let me know what Tolm has said?

City to be cleared this year

I need to hurry up writing my trilogy of philosophical blockbusters then:

Where God went wrong (the 2014 settlement),

Some more of God's greatest mistakes (the 2019 investigation and sanctions), and

Who is this God person anyway? (the 2023 PL allegations).

I am a god now ( 2024 resolution)

As a long time reader of this board I really like tolmie and enjoying reading his posts. However I can’t help but feel recently he just posts ambiguous stuff on Twitter to try and farm reactions. Throw enough shit and some of it will stick approach.

He has been quite adamant on this subject. It is hard to believe, given his record of good info, that he is miles out.

He did and he was right. To quote the great Mahatma Gandhi, " First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

The redshirts rested on their laurels convinced their unchallenged success would never end. "Noisy neighbours" as Ferguson said. By the time they awoke from their slumber it was too late. We were streets ahead and sailing off into the distance. The only way to halt our progress was to bum rush ffp through, hack our database and mount a sustained relentless media slur campaign.
I hope it we're successful in our case that we pursue our enemies with no mercy.

Brilliant post.

Please just be true and if so can it be as soon as possible. Maybe today!

The media have changed their tune from saying were guilty to saying the charges are casting a shadow over the club.


This was always going to happen that the charges would be brought up again after we won the league. Pretty much everyone predicted that on here

Yes, the tune has altered slightly. Maybe letters were despatched after all, warning certain individuals of the some of the language they were using. Would be interesting to see one if so.

Tolmie has gone balls out on this.

Hopefully he won't end up a eunuch....

Indeed. This is what has been said extensively here for years now. However, I have raised one possible reason why this basic rule may be called into question. I assume there is a large body of case law which indicates that seeking a JR is impossible in our or similar situations.

I think the Advertising Standards Agency was held to be a public body, but that was because they were performing a function that the state would if it didn’t exist.

The leading case on this point is:

R (Datafin plc) v Panel on Take-overs and Mergers - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

In fact I’ve just found a case R v Football Association ex p Football League Ltd [1993] 2 All E.R. which held that football associations are not subject to JR even though they have monopolistic powers.

So I think it’s pretty clear! :-)

I don't think the PL wanted to smear us, but some almighty pressure must have been applied to them by whoever did want to. Other PL clubs would be the beneficiaries of such a tactic no one else really, only lawyers.

Partly that but also perhaps they expected an early Settlement (we have form for that) rather than the expensive Panel route. Perhaps they still think that and are currently testing our acceptance limits,

One thing's for certain, they didn't expect it would focus the team, owners and fans to achieve so many cups etc..
