PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Having asked for all the emails, texts and Whatsapp messages in the PL's possession that mention City from 2008 onwards I would imagine it's very, very likely that Masters will be asked to explain the content of some of those, at least.

If he hasn’t provided a witness statement then the default position is that he won’t give evidence.

Might undermine the PL case if he doesn’t, of course. Like I say, difficult to know in the absence of sight of the evidence the PL is relying upon.

The only disclosure from the PL would have been related to specific points - this idea that City asked for “all PL correspondence” has always been nonsense. Just doesn’t work like that.

Shame :)

RAF Regiment. Not allowed anywhere near the aircraft unless they are either a passenger, or guarding it. ;-)

Being an x rockape I can second that

Assuming he’s a witness. It’s perfectly conceivable he isn’t. Difficult to tell in the absence of any particulars around the evidential basis for the charges.

Can Panick demand his appearance?

City employ something like 1300 people, probably 90% of these are just normal people with mortgages and families to feed

Yep… These wankers want the club to be crushed into oblivion and these ‘normal people’ to lose their livelihoods

I think the Rags have clearly demonstrated how they respect ‘normal people with mortgage’s’ etc….

Just read that, must have a work experience kid in this week at the Telegraph. He got 10/10 for spelling bless him.

Read that also. Sets new standards of total bollocks. They must be worried. The Telegraph Sports section is like a Liverpool fanzine and always good for a laugh.

Missed that one I was on 15 so they didn't trust us anywhere near them ;)

In fact thinking about it, the less witnesses the PL has, the better.

There is no point Masters coming along and giving evidence on the decision making process to charge City, as it has no probative evidential value. The only PL witnesses who will have any evidential value are those who can attest to the substance of the charges as they have witnessed something material that supports them, or because they are an expert in a relevant field, presumably in finance.

What are Masters, or any of the PL hierarchy going to add evidently to the charges, other than in relation to non-cooperation?

It’s possible they can, of course, but struggling to see how.
