PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

So we can’t take a guilty verdict to the courts? Not what I wanted to hear. I don’t care what anyone says about this KC, he’s an Arsenal fan. With it being their rules and having the red shirts breathing down their necks, this isn’t going to end well. I’ve been feeling confident since last night, but not at all now.

Why can’t we take it to the courts?

Fucked because the league twisted the rules and we twisted them back again?

The club should never had been put in this position in the first place. Mansour bought the club and wanted to invest in a growing league to earn money. If he had of been allowed to do so we would not have had to get creative with any rules or regulations.

The problem is that we got too successful. Pep arriving put the final nail in the coffin for the red teams oh and spurs:-)

All this doom and gloom. It was the same before CAS. City guilty, kick em out and we all found out that no matter what was reported by the press or indeed the charges thrown at us by uefa, all they had was a set of hacked sliced up emails.

Without knowing what the club have we are all pissing in the wind. They believe we have done nothing wrong. Let’s wait and see before we all jump off a cliff or try to get a ticket for York!

Correct.

Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies agreed on Tuesday to restore diplomatic relations with Qatar and restart flights to and from the country, ending a three-year boycott of the tiny gas-rich nation.

I don't see what this has to do with anything. Whatever the effect of supporting a club has on you, the suggestion that you can sue the Premier League for those feelings is still ridiculous.

The OP had a question on this particular subject, in this day and age it wasn't ridiculous even though I'd never be party to it. I did post, tongue in cheek that the Premier League should be accountable for incompetence by allowing us to breach their rules for 13 years, in that time line, like many others, I've spent a fortune on following the club that's been a constant part of my life. If we get relegated , stripped of trophies, sanctioned, those 13 years were wasted, the PL were incompetent. I've supported my club for well over 50 years, unconditionally, never thought we'd be so successful but the media, the Hateful 8/9 and other "fans" are now driving this agenda, so as fucking daft as some post's may appear don't dismiss the impact it has on some fans who' are absolutely engrossed in The Club. For some fans City is the most important thing in their lives, don't belittle these people.

In part, yes. The PL self-regulates and can impose whatever decision it sees fit within the current rules. The Commission will reach a conclusion and either party then has the ability to appeal, where an Appeal Board would hear the appeal (the members, similarly to the Commission are selected by the Chair). Practically the definition of marking your own homework (twice!).

Judicial review is not available, so City could not challenge the procedural aspects of the case by the PL, as the PL is private body so not subject to judicial review (R v Jockey Club 1992).

City could try and commence court proceedings if they view the PL to have breached their contract with City during the course of the investigation and/or subsequent hearing.

The High Court/Court of Appeal/Supreme Court wouldn’t have the power to overturn the decision(s) made by the PL per se, but their ruling could seriously undermine the legitimacy of the PL ruling and be incredibly embarrassing.

The no court thing is a really bad turn, no truly independent party seems like it will cause us issues.

I have/ had faith in the PL independent party and didn’t have the issue with him being an Arsenal member, In fact in some ways, I felt he would be trying very hard to show impartiality beyond all doubt. As a KC I do and still believe they will have the utmost for due process and impartiality.

However, now knowing that the courts will not go through their judgment. It does open up a door for them to have some bias.

PL will be paying them (this is the first part)
Who knows what meeting they have already had
He is an Arsenal member, q lots of jovial comments from certain other member ‘make sure you send them down etc’ he’ll walk back in a hero if he does as opposed to the quips you let us down etc.

No KC is going to want their impartiality questioned, but if they had one who was a City member would the PL be saying it’s ok they are a KC??
