PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Scaring Europe to Death]

One daft possibility that occurred to me this morning (won't happen, but neither will most of the bollocks I've read from both sides of such an extreme argument)

City find themselves 2 points clear with just a few games remaining, but are then docked 6 points, despite being cleared of all the major charges, aside from non cooperation

City immediately appeal on the grounds that they didn't gain a sporting advantage, but in the meantime Arsenal are crowned PL Champions.

Oh the irony of Arsenal having a big asterisk and an anti climatic trophy parade.

This is what it's like from all angles every single day. Red dot is me.

"It took time to get the cash together" I think is my favourite rag response so far.

Why are you getting involved?

Ignore.

That earring doesn’t suit Stam.

Same scouser from my previous screen grab. Fuck his anonymity here.

If that's what the senior juniors are doing, what exactly is the job of the junior seniors? Just to sit around and drink cappuccinos with croissants?

Just because it’s old doesn’t negate the legality! Ask King John :-)

Hope you’re well pal.

Good. Busy! Need to get off this thread and start earning some corn!

You will never ever win any argument ever that is about City cheating right now.

Tell them that their pain makes the titles even better.

Probably to take the cross examination plans off the senior juniors and carry out the the cross examination itself

Or, alternatively, you could bill @Ric at your usual hourly rate.

Win/win as you don't lose out financially and we all get the benefit of your unrivalled legal expertise....

I think there’s a good chance that we’ll be awarded costs, or a decent proportion at least, if we win. The idea that we’re going to start suing all of our detractors is fanciful at best though, as you say.

Costs will go with the loser. If City won on everything there is a good chance they would get what is known as “indemnity costs” of 80-90% back. A split decision would make the costs decision trickier. Everton got very lucky on their costs IMO - given their big loss they were lucky to only pay about half of PLs costs
