PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[give it to gordon]

The first sentence, they did, that is a matter of fact. Both the statements when openign the investigation said so. Agree, common sense would have seen the PL come to the same conclusion once the cas verdict went public.

I don't remember any accusations on other PL clubs in der Spiegel or if there were certsinly not anywhere as big.

I am not really sure what point you are trying to make though. It would take something big and public to urge uefa or the PL to investigate other clubs.

I thought der Spiegel had stolen 100 of thousands of emails from clubs all around Europe, yet the only choose to cut and paste the City ones. Why ?

Its clearly a witchhunt

The PL do have the ability to ask FIFA to back a worldwide transfer ban I think, not that that is going to happen mind.

Everton have their hearing in October, so potentially that could be a guide to what shit they could throw at City. It’s interesting there is still no hearing pencilled in for us when they are moving forward with Everton who they charged a month later. What is the hold up if they think they have a case against City? Why do they have to appoint an independent panel to adjudicate on their charges in accordance to their rule book?

I see. Yeah of course it is, I get you now.

Not sarcasm btw.

And City apparently won’t even accept that deal.
The ‘taking a pinch’ compromise thing still apparently hurts our owner’s sense of honour and City are likely to appeal even that
We’re finally on the offensive now apparently

Let's hope it continues we seem to win things when we have our backs to the wall.

What I’m hearing from a dick who tbf had been wrong a lot but tbf who got CAS verdict 100%
We’re getting done again on the non co-operation issue. The equivalent of resisting arrest from a copper who is trying to fit you up for a murder you didn’t commit
But they HAVE to do us for something as a political sop
Pretty much everything else has been dismissed and destroyed
A fine that won’t touch the sides and a one window transfer ban. With another window ban suspended

Probably the result the prem bastards knew they could get all along as well just months and months of our name being dragged through shit while winning the lot , whenever treble gets mentioned on tele or radio the very next thing out of there mouth is the charges hanging over us , even rival fans it’s the same shit mentioned I just laugh and say I know it’s great being CITY never a dull day and that winds the fuckers up
Cunts the lot of them

So the one payment that we freely acknowledge was originally paid by Mansour is now being challenged on the grounds that it was paid by someone else? They need to get their story straight

That's right. Some guy called Mohammed. Shouldn't be too difficult to track down in the UAE.

It really isn't. It is still 115 or (whatever the big number is) charges.

Technically, you can group it all into 1 'charge' if you really want to. People have done that with 5 groups of related charges. But they are all still individual charges.

Fair enough, but there are 115 alleged rule breaches. We don't know what the actual issues are that led to these breaches. I think people are using breaches to describe the 115, and charges to describe the 5 or 6 underlying issues.
