Isn't the commercial side of the club still in the hands of the Glazers and Ratcliff only has control over footballing decisions?Not too sure on the rags under Radcliffe, they were more than happy to write a statement for the Premier League in the associated parties hearing on rules that are now deemed illegal. I wonder why?
I think Tevez paid 26 times and Mascherano 16 times in that season so hardly a few but that season had WHU lost just one game it would have been them relegated and not Sheffield Utd. From memory the last game of the season WHU won the last game of the season away to Utd ( they won the league that season ) and Tevez scored the winner !Whilst I’m confident we will win the case, the outcome of losing the major charges could be endless and is uncomfortable to even contemplate.
West Ham paid Sheff Utd £20 due to 2 players 3rd party owned playing a few games and Sheff U being relegated.
The clubs that have missed Champ League qualification IF we are found guilty will argue they have missed tens of millions - multiplied by 10 seasons. And that’s before you look at those that have missed 1 place etc.
Trying not think about it and hope that like we all expect City win the case cause if we lose it will be chaos.

yep - and funnily enough there was a seamless 'transfer' to utd following that. hmmmm?I think Tevez paid 26 times and Mascherano 16 times in that season so hardly a few but that season had WHU lost just one game it would have been them relegated and not Sheffield Utd.

Could relegated clubs then sue any club that took points off them and saw them demoted whilst their finances were reliant on ‘unlawful’ and ‘unfair’ shareholder/owner interest free loans?Whilst I’m confident we will win the case, the outcome of losing the major charges could be endless and is uncomfortable to even contemplate.

The possibilities are endless.
He said on here "I doubt only these teams have written to City on this" and on Twitter "I'd be amazed if only 4 teams made a claim for compensation if City found against."Where and when did he say this out of interest?

Funny as fuck brought up by the telegraph, in retaliation to City being awarded damages, in their suing the PL over the APT rules. well it keeps the idiots clicking. Lets look at the first problem, so for example the PL find us guilty of a serious misdemeanor, in the 2014/15 season and dock us 10 points. Which season do they dock the points? this season, next or the 2014/15 season, every club involved in those seasons will claim it should be theirs, or will it be 1 point per-season.
That is the first question, of thousands

Thanks. Seen his video segment on it as well since, cheers.

The PL rules prevent clubs from suing each other, so I'd guess they'd only be able to apply for compensation, but they'd only be able to do that if the PL charged the shareholder loan club with rule breaches in the first placeCould relegated clubs then sue any club that took points off them and saw them demoted whilst their finances were reliant on ‘unlawful’ and ‘unfair’ shareholder/owner interest free loans?
