PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

bobbyowenquiff said:
Dozens of clubs have admitted breaching FFP rules in the last decade, others have admitted breaking rules about using ineligible players or fallen foul of other PL regulations. You could argue that all these cases could have affected a club's final position in the league table and so impacted on everyone financially. So why is it just City being targeted by other clubs for possible legal action (assuming we are even "found guilty.") Or is it just part of the relentless negative campaign (driven by people with dubious motives) we have suffered for years?

I think you know the answer. For those with negative motives this is build up as the trial of the century. They are fueling speculation that a finding in favour of the PL opens up allsorts of opportunities for others to do us down. We better not lose.

It's just lawyers being lawyers, time barring applies to any claims so they're just being diligent. Most cases aren't as "historical" as ours, so I suppose it's not normally necessary.

Clubs must go to arbitration through the PL, so they are just informing the PL of their intent. I think that stops the clock.
