PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Gaylord du Bois]

I can’t see twitter as not a member.

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

City to be cleared THIS year. There will be ZERO ambiguity for rivals after it.

Did he ever say he hadn't got one? Or was he just advised, maybe, not to publicise it?

He said he hadn’t had one. That said, his whole existence is founded upon a fraud so who knows!

 

[remember arthur mann]

I like Tolmie but didn't he get the cease and desist letters information wrong? Is this new information or just rehashing what the club has said all along?

To be fair, we need someone to stand in our corner with positivity, especially with all the negative shite being thrown at us.

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.

That post has a whiff of certainty about it imo, like he's heard something reliable rather than being spurious.

It’s definitely worth repeating

yes and that is not talked about enough , it is crusial in both these cases.
Why did UEFA charge City with completely lost case. There lawers must have known

It was all political. UEFA used the legal process as a political tool and always have done that in the past. The PL leadership urged on by LFC, MUFC, Spurs, and Arsenal have made the same mistake. They think the sheer volume of charges is just a lever to curb City’s spending. Evidence doesn’t come into it because clubs always settle. Khaldoon has called their bluff.

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! :-)

Has there been any legislation on this since then?
Do we know what powers the regulator will have?

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).

Excellent. Timeless masterpiece of Mr Adams.

Is there anything new regarding Annabel Tiffen?

Nope. Still stuck in the jar.

I am getting a bit tired of the misinformation tweets. Even if it s done with the best intentions.
