PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Pinto threatens to release emails HE claims will prove City guilty of breaching FFP rules.
Yet didn't provide them to UEFA or the PL investigation before today when they miraculously existed.

Why are people taking this gimp seriously?

That's the fake headline on Talksport. I think the claim by Pinto's lawyer is that they have more documents to help any investigations. As far as the English press are concerned City are guilty. In fact so far the only person who is guilty is the convicted criminal Rui Pinto. The UK media never let the facts get in the way of a good story.

This story is riddled with mistakes (lies) from start to finish. Pinto is not claiming his documents will prove City's guilt. The lawyer's claim is that Pinto still has millions of documents (on all sorts of people), including some on City, which may have "criminal relevancy". The Mail says Pinto was found guilty but he admitted extortion and did a plea deal. The Mail says the so-called "bombshell" Mancini contract shows breaches of FFP. The contract dates back to 2008, four years before FFP came in. There are too many other errors to list. Just total fake news in the ongoing smear campaign against City.

And the first thing he said when getting arrested, no i am not him, the second, i want protection for my family, which he got, so no deportation to America for him.
He has nothing on City, that is highly unlikely to be the case for others.

I’m waiting for the report that Pinto wants to put a cease and disist order on Sunsport for spread lies about him.
Him claiming they made it up and he doesn’t have a massive file or a file of any size on City.

So, even if there were extra documents leaked by Pinto, it could be stuff that helps us?
 
in response to pintos lawyer threatening to release documents with regards to city i am going to threaten to release documents implicating the rags, dippers and arsenal in everything from the great train robbery to covid to financing putins war on the ukraine and given that i am not a convicted criminal i think my documents hold more veracity.
 
Shaun Custis - Head of Sport at the Sun who published the article - spent about 20 seconds on the story this morning on his Talksport show, so he obviously thinks it’s a garbage.

Pinto has spent years trying to restyle himself as a whistleblower. The whole witness protection nonsense bizarrely portraying him as a victim.

Convicted criminal facing hundreds of further charges.

Possibly but I think any documents are probably worthless in terms of any investigation. The Mail claims that thousands of City emails were leaked but Der Spiegl only published five or six and they were laughed out of court by the CAS Judges. The stories in the Mail and Sun are pure fiction though so who knows.

Thanks for posting that. So Pinto is serving a four-year suspended jail sentence but still faces 377 more charges including the Ronaldo rape stuff. It is funny how the English press have totally ignored the broader context. They didn't even cover the trial which lasted months but it was covered by the overseas media.

Give the guy a break. You know how the media like to sensationalise things and make them sound worse.
377 charges. I bet it’s the same charge 377 times or maybe a couple of charges 188/189 times. That kind of thing.
 
Pinto trying to extort money again from either the club or anyone else willing to pay for his bullshit.

We have seen now for 4 years that no matter what is published nor how it looks to anyone outside the club it is of little relevance apart from creating headlines. The facts and the paper trail will show the club acted in accordance with the law.

That’s it, brand us cheats all you want but unless you can prove it, go fuck yourself.

I don't understand this non cooperation. City can get found guilty of this but the reason for the non cooperation is not looked into.
Why would City cooperate with a witchhunt against themselves ? Knowing that delicate information about financial deals will be passed on to the American owners.
There is a reason City didn't cooperate with both UEFA and the pl and that's because both leak things to our rivals.

In what other walk of live can you be found innocent but guilty of non cooperation ? You are innocent so why cooperate.

I really don't understand this non cooperation.

I can’t help you there.
