PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Seems a strange one this (possibly in a good way).

I don’t see how conversations between Masters/Scudamore and directors or other clubs etc has any bearing on whether City have submitted false accounts.

They’re either false or they aren’t, regardless of whether there is a cartel working against the club.

Seems to fit the discrimination case better than the 115 one.

Who still has text messages from 15 years ago?

 

[JASR]

Probably not since the Der Spiegel allegations, but we’re apparently demanding messages dating back to 2009.

It’s not ‘we’/‘us’ though, it’s the independent investigative committee…

… which makes it sound even more like, they’ve found something, they don’t like what the PL have said to try and tide it over, so they’ve asked for the lot.

It’s really a complete cock-up by the PL and whoever is leaking to media has the brain of a walnut, as it’s just making them look worse, rather than being all private.

The article does say it’s related to the 115 case, but agree it seems a bit strange.

Standard procedure. Both sides have to.

Fuck around. Find out.

Is there a way to check any deleted emails? Besides the junk folder which they would obviously empty? ie, could a computer specialist if required confirm if any emails were indeed deleted?

Yes. Almost certainly recoverable.

Hopefully, we agreed to it being circulated provided they were a) numbered and b) each one separately identifiable by a tiny individual marker in the text. That way the source of the circulated copy could be traced

Standard procedure. Both sides have to.

going with this , standard

Let’s be honest, it’s a lot of emails and texts, possible running in to the 100,000’s over that period of time. This case is going to run and run.

The stones on City.
