PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Gordyola]

Apparently a GDPR issue or so it was said on here. What is probably correct to say, obviously in hindsight, City should have gone to the courts back at the beginning of all this. This would have given greater clarity and possibly defined what the PL and indeed the international bodies are allowed to do.

GDPR introduced after the offence

 

[Gordyola]

We know the reason why
City would have left itself open to an investigation into its GDPR procedures

What if my company/organisation fails to comply with the data protection rules?

A range of sanctions, including suspension of activities and fines can be imposed if your company doesn’t comply with EU law on data protection.

Offence was pre 2013 GDPR introduced 2018

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.

Logic doesn't come into it when you are trying to generate clicks. Infact the more illogical it appears, the more clicks a 'story' seems to generate.

There is a logic to that!

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.

I deal with contracts a lot at work and ChatGPT cuts out a lot of the crap. Still don't fully trust it, but when I am trying to find a relevant clause in a contract it hasn't failed so far! I would be surprised if lawyers aren't using it for contract drafting even these days.

There was ...
The European Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC) on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data
So not GDPR as we know it, but regulations which the club were very lax in adhering to

Checked this figure with a commercial silk the other day and he said it seemed high. About half that by his reckoning, which is around where I guessed it would be.

It could be right, there’s billions at stake tbf, but I think it’s likely to be lower than £5k an hour fwiw.

Well that’s not fair on the lad.
Butties cost £13 a pop down there, hope he’s took a packed lunch.

That may be so, but is it true?…….
