PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

We brought the charges in the best interests of the premier league. There wasn’t sufficient evidence to prove the charges. The end
Deffo not the end.
”It is a bad day for football” etc etc adinfinitum.
We have just got to stop winning.
 
Assuming you’re right that we won’t get relegated, do you think that the PL have to save face & find us guilty of some of the lesser charges & thus dock us points?
They can try but I honestly don't think we'll accept anything that isn't unequivocally factual. I don't believe our ownership group has the least bit of interest in seeing to it that the Prem save face, nor should they. I truly believe City has and will continue to approach this as all or nothing...
 
The insane act of self destruction by the PL has already happened.

It happened the moment they decided to hit us with 115 charges.

If they didn’t want to self destruct they don’t charge us. It’s that simple.

If we are found guilty we are fucked - and the PL will have to deal with almost every club in the league over the 10 year period having some sort of financial claim against us.

I admire your optimism - but the case can’t be stopped now and I doubt the PL nor any clubs will have any influence in the outcome.
I just think charging us and actually killing us are 2 very different things. That said I have no idea what the bullshit panel will decide, but I know City won't accept relegation. What City would actually do would remain to be seen but it won't be playing in any lower tiers no matter how many wishful thinkers there are out there...

Ffs someone give this guy an upper
 
The Premier league are already regretting the panel's decision to deduct Everton ten points and the fall out that will cause with several clubs claiming compensation , if they took points from us the compensation claims would increase ten fold.
They have no choice but to change the punishment and fine Everton with a possible transfer ban , if they do not ,the shit will hit the fan and the litigation will go on for years ,the Premier league have shot themselves in the foot just to appease two arrogant , self entitled , greedy bastard football clubs. If Master's and his cronies dont buck their ideas up , the Premier league in its current guise is f*cked and a European Super League will be on the agenda again.
They were unable to predict a way to structure their version of FFP to stop City at the time initial investment phase of our business plan occurred. Even their much adjusted rules and control of refs and var failed miserably.

Seems that when you are a history club all that is necessary is a knee jerk reaction then gradually refine it until a compromise situation happens.

Why break a habit of a lifetime. Their hubris apparently has no limits.
 
Interesting. But how can a new regulator do that legally?
How do you mean how can they do it ? The government creates the regulator it will set it up to do what it wants in any event if it doesn’t have enough power or enough scope parliament will act to give it the power or ban or make possible what it wants

I mean exactly that. Are they going to pass new laws that stops British football clubs operating outside of the British pyramid because right now there’s no legislation (as far as I know) that can stop this?

I agree. I think our owners are going to “deal” with this because it’s all a set up & they’ve had enough.
 
Thinks he's getting us mixed up with his beloved team.
To be fair to him he did say that the top six are bullies. The hateful eight tried to bully City so I'm not sure what he's going on about with regards to us. Are we not allowed to defend ourselves rat boy?

Iirc, the government said at the time that they would pass legislation to stop British clubs playing outside the existing pyramid. I suppose the IR is a step in that direction. There are plenty of other things they can do, I guess. Nothing to stop "Manchester" United moving its franchise to, say, Reykjavik, though.
 
Apparently Rat boy thinks the Premier League are scared of us and we are bullies. They weren't bothered wh hen they threw the fucking book at us were they.
Remember when the blueflakes got all hot and bothered about him being splashed by a beer?
Rat wants us wiped off the face of the footballing map.
