PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Come on, you’re smart enough to know that’s not what CAS says. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

City did not prove ADUG didn’t send the money, UEFA failed to prove they did.

That’s why I wrote a whole paragraph in my original comment about it being foolish to assume CAS and the PL panel would reach the same verdict because they may see different evidence or just be convinced to fall 1v2 instead of 2v1.
True, but how do you prove something didn't happen?

I totally believe in City. I don't think they would risk continuing down the same road with false accounting after all the hassle with UEFA, and I doubt the club would come out and make a matter-of-fact statement right at the very start of this process that they were completely innocent if they knew there was likely to be something in there that would stick. They would have said something like "we cannot make any further comment for legal reasons" or words to that effect.
 
Spoke to someone I know at the club this morning, and it's certainly allayed my fears a bit. Can't go into too much detail, but the club knew this was coming, even if the timing caught them out a bit, and are confident that we'll be cleared of the most serious charges.
I hope
