PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

The way this thing is dragging on, this thread could easily reach 10,000 pages.
Just wait till we win and the dancing gifs come out.

Ahh that brings back memories, possibly the greatest night on bluemoon, the great 'Messi is signing' dancing gif night.
 
HHSM has just reduced his controlling share in CFG from 78 to 72%. The 6% is assumed to have gone via a new shares allocation to Silver Lake Investments, increasing their share from 18 to 24%. The deal raises another £210m capital injecion into CFG.
What does it mean ?
Is there a medium term plan to move to a PLC/Coporate model listed in the US ? That would destroy the "state" narrative bollocks once and for all. Wtf would the shills do for a living then, the grifting shite hawks that they truly are. That's a perfectly legitimate ownership model btw, I've seen it used somewhere else, not sure where.

We shouldn't be getting involved in this type of politics either, I want to go and watch a match not listen to a message telling me not to be a ****.
If you want to hear how some LGBTQ+ City fans feel about their experiences at the Etihad and online before dismissing the campaign entirely, we discussed it from about 58 mins in this week’s Blue Moon Podcast:

So Silver Lake own a bigger percentage stake in ‘state owned’ City than scruffy Jim owns in ‘Jim Ratcliffe owned’ rags.

Make it make sense.

I see Magic Hat has run a thread on ‘state owned City’ with a classic opening line ‘I’m not sure of the current ownership structure’ ?? In other words the current structure doesn’t fit the tripe he writes.

It's hard to imagine that Silver Lake would be investing even more if they thought there was a chance that severe sanctions (or any really) would be incoming. If there was a hint of risk they would wait for the outcome rather than saying 'fuck it, let's roll the dice'.

This makes a big difference potentially. If you own 75% or more of the shares, you have a controlling interest and you do not need to get other shareholders’ permission for key actions. But now, if Silverlake actually own 24%, they must agree to major changes. It could portend a long term plan to finally go public or at least widen the shareholder base which I think would be beneficial.
Is there a ref for the source of this story?
