PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Gordyola]

Just wondering how often the PL hold their meetings ( monthly, quarterly,annually), and do the chairmen or other very senior managers from the 20 clubs attend ? If so, how can any City representative, stand being on the room with these scheming vipers, who he/she knows are trying to destroy us ?

Shaking hands whilst whistling champions again ole ole..... Getting lots of references into conversations like "four in a row" everyone whilst getting the obligatory picture taken Id love it

Not the thread or time to be arguing on fellas. Solidarity is needed.

The discussions from over a year ago, that left so many posters claiming 'stefan said no appeals'. Because that is what you resolutely claimed. And were just as dismissive as you are now.

It is not worth my time tbh, I'll point out what has happened since and that's that.

Can we at least agree now that the appeals process is:

Disciplinary panel > Appeals board > Arbitration tribunal > Courts.

At each stage the grounds to appeal to the next step are reduced:

Appeals boards have to be set up whatever the appeal, but difficult (not impossible) to overturn a finding of fact. City likely to appeal against any sanction if one is imposed, I would imagine. Why not? Will be interesting to see if the PL appeals if City are successful and in what areas.

Arbitration tribunal has limited jurisdictional grounds so may refuse a tribunal hearing, but I am sure expensive lawyers can work something out.

A high court appeal has very limited grounds under English law and the PL rules, which makes it virtually (but not completely) impossible.

And, as we all know, there is no possibility of an appeal to CAS in the PL rules.

I think that is it. More or less.

** Waits to be blasted **

I'd imagine being the Champions for four years running makes that task slightly easier, enjoyable even.

The one thing crystal clear in this total embarrassment for the PL is that the rags have been the worst run football club in the world and is massively in debt to the tune of nearly £1 billion and massively under performing on the pitch . The absolute hypocrisy here tell us and anyone else with half a brain what really is going on . THE corruption within the PL exposed and the corruption within the gravy train media fully exposed .

Not really city related but given united's losses over 3 years and the seemingly generous exemptions that they have been allowed to claim, who decides what exemptions will / will not be permitted. How do clubs get to compare and contrast what one group has been permitted and another declined eg what United have been allowed versus what Everton were declined, bearing in mind Everton have a shiny new stadium whilst United have the 3rd highest waterfall in the uk when we have heavy rain.

Apologies if wrong thread

If it's things like Covid allowances, then whether we like it or not United are going to get more of an allowance than most or all the clubs in the league due to their lost match day revenue during the pandemic being higher than pretty much everyone else's. That said, I don't know the figures involved compared to other clubs and whether they've been given more of an allowance than they should. I'm sure the number crunchers would be able to make a fair assessment on that if they had the figures for every club in front of them.

On the face of it, United's latest losses and the 3-year rolling figure of losses look pretty grim reading and you'd have to think that they would be sailing close to the wind with regards PSR, even when allowances are taken into account.

What can't be denied by anybody is that, given the resources at their disposal and their performances on the pitch, they've been the worst run club in the league for fucking years now. How can they be so shit despite spending so much? I'd say that's worthy of an investigation in itself!

Behave……have you not seen the latest report ? Utd are now the best run club in the country due to ‘The Avengers’ now operating them. They only paid full price for one of their summer signings so the Mail reports today !!!

Oh come on. Arguing with lawyers is one of the eternal pleasures in life. Trouble is: they always bill you for it :)

Now I think about it, this reminds me of the scene in Frasier:

Frasier : God, I hate lawyers.
Niles : Me too. But they make wonderful patients: they have excellent health insurance and they never get better.

I believe that part of the issue is that when utd have submitted their accounts, detailing these exceptional extra over costs, the PL have decided not to investigate. Ie they have just taken Utds word for it. Where as with Everton, Forest and Leicester they decided to investigate. Perhaps someone could confirm that??
