PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[red 2 hats]

This is very worrying, numerous breaches over years, fuck, fuck, fuck.

Surely time-barred?

Nothing is time barred if you've acted fraudulently - which is what the accusation is.

That was the most important point argued at CAS. UEFA couldn't prove that City had deliberately mislead them, which is why the court ruled on older stuff being time-barred.

 

[Maly]

Does anyone actually understand what the charges are? If so, can someone translate into English please

 

[mexico1970]

Get rid of us and the ESL is there for the opening, every single club in the PL have stretched the rules, it's us they want out.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Are they claiming we paid players and managers off the books?

Yes, pretty much.

 

[Blue and true]

We're fucked.

 

[neel]

Another appeal to CAS ?

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Load of crap.

More smears from the cartel. Allegations only No proof we did anything wrong.

If the commission is independent then we will be cleared.

Maybe this is what’s behind the poor season. Need the club to come out with a strong announcement.

Yeah we're good at them.

Christ, if this holds up we'll have something like a 3 year transfer ban. Won't be able to sign anyone.

True. With this coming from the league rather than random shite from German papers then longer is possible. Even if nothing proven and we end up not guilty though, the doubt while this is ongoing will stop players joining us.

 

[geek24601]

We all know this has been encouraged and pushed by certain teams.

And now, with this hanging over us, is it going to stop certain big name players joining us in a rebuild?

No wonder Liverpool fancy their chances with Bellingham still. This will certainly put doubt in his mind about joining us at the very least.

It’s easy to blame others but IF we have broken the rules we should be directing our anger to our own organisation for ever thinking this was acceptable.

Off to the Super League it is then.

 

[Matt Diablo]

No way our titles will be stripped. They can go suck chimps kok. If they do im fuking the game off for good

Off to the Super League it is then.

Ohhh we wont get an invite ;)

 

[stan bowles]

Surely time-barred?

No expert but I don't think in the PL it would be.

 

[wolviedinho]

Fuck it let’s join the super league -:)

 

[Claytop]

I think we could be fucked.

 

[cheekybids]

Every season from 2009/10 to 2017/18 ? Jeez.

Ffp didn’t exist then ???

We knew the league would try something to save face. Let’s see how these allegations hold up under scrutiny.

Jesus Christ wake up and smell the coffee.

 

[Eric Hitchmough]

Half an hour ago I thought our biggest problem was the formation.

 

[mexico1970]

It’s easy to blame others but IF we have broken the rules we should be turning our anger to our own organisation for ever thinking this was acceptable.

No we shouldn't, just because they haven't gone balls deep after other clubs who have stretched the remit that's not on us it's on them.
