PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Do I think the PL is incompetent?

No.

Incompetent is too polite. The PL is a narcissistic establishment where the lunatics are running the asylum. Its sole purpose is to make money at the physical cost of the players, but in particular at the monetary and emotional cost of you and me, the everyday fan who just wants a level playing field and would rather not have to pay absurd amounts of money to watch our team whilst simulateously being treated like something that fell out the back of a dog if the club decides a different demographic -read wealthy 'tourists' who pay massively over the odds from resellers (who get the tickets and share the margins with people at the club) can make them more money (and then we wonder why we have to bring in fake 'ultras' to create an atmosphere).

The PL employs staff who'd immediately be fired if they worked at a decent corporation for being unfit to do their job. Look at the Leicester situation as an example. How the heck has the PL screwed that up? It's absurd. Some other team may end up going down this season because the PL fucked up the one fucking job they had to do which was run the game correctly. And the lawsuits will follow, no doubt about that.

Regarding the current APT lawsuit City brought, and the ongoing 115 case, to be honest I don't trust any of it that we'll get to the actual 'truth'. It's because football clubs' prime reason to exist is to make money and the PL is the supposed kingpin that makes that happen. And in such a closed, unregulated environment the chances are it'll all be corrupt as fuck as nobody wants to stop the gravy train and backhanders. Just look at how corrupt FIFA, UEFA, the IOC etc have all proven to be. All unregulated fiefdoms. The PL is the same, of that I have no doubt.

Personally I'd fuck the PL off and create a new league. Let clubs spend whatever they want, the one caveat being a strict limit on the amount of debt you can be in. Like actual debt, not some made up FFP bollocks rules.

Long answer I know, but you did ask for my opinion so here it is!

But you invest that much of your time immersed in it that you even come on a rival club’s forum and talk utter wank all day?

You sound pretty mentally unwell to me.

It's not between the airlines per se but more like a financial rivalry between Dubai and Abu Dhabi, or more specifically the families who run each of these 2 Emirates (the largest 2 Emirates in the United Arab Emirates).

Abu Dhabi has actually bankrolled Dubai to the tune of $20bn dollars dating back to the financial crisis in 2009 but which they keep extending.

I guess if Abu Dhabi gets pissed off with Dubai (Emirates), or more specifically Arsenal they could always ask for their money back lol!

That’s exactly what we should do now to be honest, the arsenal lot are taking the oiss and we should hit them all hard

I don't think of BM as a 'rivals website' more of a 'football forum' where there's actually a lot more interesting chat going on than on other sites. Yes I know City are a rival but that's not why I'm here.

Re being mentally unwell - well most men have mental health challenges at some stage in their lives, I'm sure I'm just as likely to as the next guy and if I did it wouldnt be anything to be ashamed of.

I will say though that on forums where people display overt hostility to complete strangers that's often a sign that all's not always well with them on an emotional level - I'm not having a go as honestly it genuinely doesn't bother me getting flak as I'm getting it from people who've never met me and therefore don't know me - they might just as well be shouting at a cow in a field. But I'd question why hostility seems to be the first port of call for some folk anyway and what's behind that. Because being unpleasant to someone often makes the recipient feel bad, but just as likely makes the giver feel uptight as well. It's easier just to chill IMHO - it just feels better.

I think you'd get a bit more respect on here if you just admitted that the club you support has been instrumental in what will probably be the downfall of the league as we know it.
Not MCFC.
But Arsenal FC..
All the years of getting rules changed behind the scenes , being absolute snides, writing secret letters to other clubs, then having the cheek to be part of a smear campaign against city whilst breaking rules yourselves.

You'll say not breaking rules.
I'll say in bed with the premier league on turning a blind eye to owner funded interest free loans.
