PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

A quality second striker and Guimariez would se us stocked.

It's interesting to watch the Cancello situation....shit defender, but if his attitude has changed, as an 'unwanted' man, he could play a role and at zero cost !!

Sterling on loan anyone ??

He looked very good in the Euros, he can thread a pass and find people when he’s on it. Would be interesting to see how he would play around Doku.

It changes nothing…. They are just piling in because they want to see us punished but they have no understanding whatsoever of the facts. The Daily Mail has been morally (and factually) bankrupt for more than a century - so it ain’t changing soon.

The Mail was a fine upstanding supporter of Hitler in the 30s.

I think he'd be paired with Jack....more ball retention, possession, control and less turnover risk.

Cancello at rb would also allow Rico to play in midfield more regularly where his speed of passing and mobility would be very useful.

Interesting situation.

Yes, he is a very decent player. A right back by trade he did well for us as an inverted left back. If he has made peace with Pep, maybe he will stay but he has to accept that the team is the thing.

I am not implying we will be called cheats.
Quite the opposite actually as I cannot see how the allegations can be proven.
However the PL will have to get something out of this to save face so will still “punish” the club for failing to cooperate…

The IC makes that decision, not the PL.

So the clear implication is that big Jim knows/believes we are innocent.

Probably be in his interests?

100%

Both may have to be the 'bigger man' to make it work in the best and bigger interests of the team ,if that's what they/we want.

Two years remaining on his contract, he seems to keep fit/injury free, it's an interesting situation.

 

[KS55]

Its not up to us to prove our innocence- it’s up to the panel (PL) to PROVE -WITHOUT DOUBT -guilt

The balance of probabilities, but the evidence will need to be strong to tip the scales against our audited accounts.

The Cancelo and PL Charges and Quiet thread have merged into a singularity. This is dangerous shit. Run people. Save yourselves. Runnnnn!

I’ve been thinking for some time that a counter claim would make life very interesting. Under the PL rules, the PL and all clubs must act in good faith to all clubs in the PL.
Right at the beginning of this saga, I suggested that our legal team should ask some pointed questions on how much the PL consulted the redshirts before preferring the charges. (Any emails available?)
Hands up all those who think the redshirts and the PL have acted in good faith towards us.
A failure to show good faith would not only weaken the PL case, but would also open the door to an appeal to the high court and such a finding would make a great introduction to the IC’s ratio when they find us innocent.
You may say that I’m a dreamer…..

We know about the hateful eight letter, the two latest Times exclusives (leaks allegedly via the Arse) and I'm sure the club have something not in the public domain.This to me is substantial grounds for non co operation as they can't be trusted with confidential information. My only concern is the independence of this tribunal even though projectdriver is confident they will be.
