PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[bobbyowenquiff]

Has to be.

But Sheikh Mansour (and CFG) is still making huge long-term investments in Manchester with the new stand, hotel, and the major housing plans for Holt Town. Also doing something similar in New York City. This shows that the overall project is not slowing down. The biggest issue on player investment is that no one wants to breach the PL PSR rules. Those rules have crippled Newcastle and are devastating the PL. But we also have to stick to those rules while they still exist. City would have made a loss without our transfer deals last year.

United posted a £113m loss this year but they spent £220m on players. Had they not spent £113m of that £220m on players then they would have broken even. They're cheating then basically!

Look at the league net spend table and we're 11th, Crystal Palace have spent more net on players. Chelsea's net spend for the last 5 years is £750m! How many trophies have they all won? And we're the cheats?

What a load of absolute bollocks.

If we win we should be awarded 40 extra points

Might scrape 6th with that

Thankfully for the PL they won’t need these trumped up charges to relegate us anyway.

Maybe it's a cunning plan of ours to get relegated in the normal way, then when we're found guilty a relegation won't hurt us, lol

It's like waiting for the result is like a huge black cloud hanging our the club and fans.
It seems to be affecting the club and us from top to bottom

And that’s the reason they drag it out as long as possible!

I think board didn't want to invest in the team after City won a treble due to these charges. They want to see the verdict before investing money again. That's why two latest season it has been big downgrade in the squad (Laporte, Mahrez, Alvarez out) without signing proper replacements.

But why then would the same board spend Millions extending the stadium?

Someone should send this post to Simon Jordan. He always uses us an example of reckless spending, I even heard him comparing us to "drunken sailors" once. Funnily enough, Chelsea always seem to get a free pass from him.

maybe the club should now start dropping hints of whats expected, fuck the PL we can have a fine for broadcasting what we want to say

I was listening to a podcast recently and Ian Cheeseman said he’d heard whispers but can’t comment until reports are verified,

…it sounds to me like this is related to the charges, I would imagine that the players have heard things too and wonder if this is related to our drop (off the nearest cliff) in form??

We have been under investigation for years, yet managed to win 6 out of the last 7 league titles, the treble, and the first ever four-peat. No, the players are not affected by the alleged breaches.
