PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[calumdown]

Never ever said it was fair or just. Because it isn’t.

I stand by my position that if we’ve signed up to the rules and breached them, we should take whatever comes our way.

Not liking the rules or not thinking they are unfair doesn’t give you carte blanche to not abide by them.

Not that I think it will come to that because I think we’re entirely innocent.

If you don’t agree, that’s absolutely fine but ffs stop going on about it.

If the players dont trust the club they would have gone in the summer , i think they know the score , that the prem are out to get us , seems to motivate them to win more

Gundog would never have come back if he thought we were getting done.

Gundog would never have come back if he thought we were getting done.

Good point, i think the players love khaldoon and if he says the club have this then they believe him

Gundog would never have come back if he thought we were getting done.

If people outside the club actually stepped back and thought about this logically do they not think every agent that represents a player who we have signed since February 2023, or players who have renewed their contacts since then, hasn’t sought material assurances supported by evidence around this.

It’s absolutely ridiculous to suggest not.

Same goes for sponsors.

The same goes (as has been ventilated at length) for the investment in the ground.

The club’s confidence is both palpable and (doubtless) well founded.

So according to the mail the charges have been in place for 18 months and day 3 of the trial the players reprensentatives have started asking about how they can get out, the desperation is palpable

The investigation and charges have been known about for years.
If the agents thought it would be an issue, everyone signed in the last 4 years would have a relegation clause in the contract.
I suspect none of them have.

I'm not a barrister but i've been in courts and I preferred paper bundles. I found it easier to put my finger on things I wanted as I'm not good at multi tasking and arsing aroung with tech under pressure isn't easy I'm sure Pannick has lackeys who's job is to do all that at the click of his fingers though.

You're not bright enough to be a barrister, you used to get us bluemooner to do you're lads home work ffs ;-)

I'm not being funny but how the funk would esteemedkompany know that?
How?

Did he sneak in unnoticed?

Ah the joys of social media, the just reel folks in.

They've got me confused with someone else lol. Wasn't me.

One of the lads near me at the match last night said that Esteemedkompany had tweeted that Lord Pannick got half the charges dropped on Monday. I've not seen the tweet and can't find it.

Apparently, the Premier League barrister read out the charges and Pannick presented the original document, and said (something along the lines of), "No. This is what you originally charged City with, this is what we are defending." and the panel agreed.

Does anyone know about this tweet or heard anything similar?

I delved using a few computer tools and have done a video, ( it needs finishing) on this very subject. Basically there are 15 differences in the text on this page as it stands now, compared to what it said origonally on 06 Feb 23 (It's been changed several times).

This could totally wreck the case, as the first errors were all in allegation 1, they missed the letter of several of them...

I'll try to finish it and upload it to YouTube at the weekend.

Any links to that tweet would be appreciated?

I haven't tweeted that mate lol. Someone is either making that up or they've said the wrong person?
