PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

My question to @tolmie's hairdoo would be if his post this morning is an expectation from someone connected to the club rather than a statement of fact?

The only way it could be the latter would be if it is all done and dusted awaiting an announcement.

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.

Totally disagree with the "throw enough shit and some of it will stick approach" as I've been reading/following Tolm for years and find him very informative and probably the most ITK person i know. He has not always been correct in the players we are supposedly close to signing (nobody is!) but IMO always posts in good faith. If you dont believe pf like what he's posting, either on BM or Twitter, then dont read it .... simples really pal.

Blabbermouth Jordan with an interesting new take on the charges on TalkShite

Called out the number 115 as bullshit and stated it's really 4 or 5 and of that 4 or 5 only 2 matter in any material way. He did say he thinks city have a case to answer (his prerogative) but I found the fact that he was at pains to all of a sudden change tact from sensationalist 115 to 2...

Yes, I know he's a **** but I think this highlights the significant calming of the rhetoric from some camps in the MSM

Jordan has definitely softened his position. I think he gets most of his info from his pals who are close to the PL leadership (current and former PL club directors) so this is probably positive for City. The City "had a case to answer" line may well be one of the narratives the PL try and use as a comms message ie "We had no choice but to investigate because of the allegations made in the media and concern from other clubs."
 
I’ve tried to keep this as simple as possible: as a financial analyst who puts great stock in the veracity of financial statements, as long as we’ve committed no accounting fraud I don’t care what what we’re “guilty” of. If we’re cleared it will change positively nothing among the nattering nabobs who’ll merely claim global politics, corruption, technicalities, etc. Not a single public person nor entity who’s disparaged the club will reverse course — not a single one. There will and can be no “vindication” in their eyes regardless of facts, period, end of. As such, I will feel no additional pleasure at the outcome if it’s positive for us, since it doesn’t change anything regarding how I feel about our side, nor will it change others who believe in asterisks, taint, etc. They may talk less (doubtful) but they’ll never be convinced.
