PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Stoned Rose]

Far be it for me to digress and I agree wholeheartedly that people should stay on topic or push off, but the phrase I think you are looking for is tittle tattle.

Not if he’s a proper Manc it isn’t.

UEFA went with the 6/7 emails hence 3 days. The scale of the PL case is really monumentally different in scale. But it seems very unlikely the City witnesses would have made those witness statements without a high degree of caution/examining all of the disclosable documents in the ongoing PL case (at that time).

I remember the stat that the Everton case had 1 million documents attached which I thought was bonkers then. Did that seem realistic and would the increased complexity of the City case see a proportional amount?

Sure

I think tickle tackle might be something else.. HAHA

I think a Tickle Tackle was something Steve Kinsey did whe he was trying to win the ball back after he usually lost it?

during the villa game i had the distinct feeling that the players were phoning it in, almost as if they know that whatever they do is pointless. is there a chance that they could have been briefed that all didnt go well or is that still too early to call?

No, it's not possible

Suez Fortune Investments Ltd v. Talbot Underwriting Ltd (Brilliante Birtuoso) 2019

Does that really say the standard of proof in a civil case involving fraud is more aligned to the criminal standard, or is it just saying the standard is balance of probabilities but in view of the serious of the charges the cogency of the evidence required elevates the standard?

Which is what we have been saying in our case?

In the circumstances of the case quoted, this meant a standard not far short of the criminal standard. In our case, it may be less than that, or, much less likely, more?

See above.

That case is neither the leading authority or says what you say it says. In fact, as I previously explained it says the opposite - that the case will be decided on a BoP but with a requirement for cogent evidence but not anything like a criminal standard.

As I previously mentioned, it’s explained here:

Conspiracy Theories and Innuendo will not prove the alleged Manchester City Conspiracy

There will be no Super Sub for cogent evidence

I don’t think Everton was a million but I’d expect a million pages in the trial bundle in PL v City.

Explain the Foden goal then.
