PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[jimharri]

I wonder how many people have been clicking on that Save button in the hope it works ......

What; it's not working?

I prefer my explanation that, after the PL continued with their investigation following the CAS decision, the club have cleverly manipulated the PL into going through this whole process to get it finalised once and for all.

I have a few reasons for thinking that but I won't repeat them here as I don't think anyone else agrees with me :)

But there are two questions to which I am hoping we will find the answer once the dust has settled on the judgment:

Why did the PL continue with the investigation once CAS had concluded. The easy answer is rival pressure, but really?

Why did the PL continue with the disciplinary process in February 2023? That is when I don't really think they had a choice. And that is where my original point comes in. I think they didn't have a choice because the club put them in that position.

So, I am not worrying.

If I am right, the club are extraordinarily confident even in some of the less serious areas where I don't think we have enough information to come to a conclusion ourselves, such as Fordham and Toure. That's good enough for me.

And if I am wrong well, what the fuck, it won't be the first time :D

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Just had a very nice Centre cut applewood smoked bacon and opulent rich yolk Clarence Court egg on seeded whole meal sandwich so will be skipping lunch today, but thanks for the heads up on the deployment of that sinfully wank, small-time expression.

Worst Country song ever.

hahaa

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Not quite.

Ran out of Clarence Court (Burford Browns, obviously) and cba driving ten miles to Waitrose so had to slum it with a Co-op organic. And I never eat smoked bacon, unless I have no say in the matter. Bread was sliced white.

Even if the doomsday scenario occurred and we were relegated several levels it would be a great ride on the way back up ..

That’s what I said to wife last night but she’s having none of it

Is it 4pm yesterday yet?

 

[Stoned Rose]

Thanks for the information.

Could you say what "won the case" meant, in your opinion? That the PL couldn't prove the most serious allegations? Or that they couldn't prove any?

In a complicated case like this, or the APT case, I always think "won" or "lost" aren't particularly helpful for understanding what's going on ....

You can guarantee mate that if city are found to have breached any of the rules it’ll be reported as we “lost” and are “guilty”.

Have we changed the stadium name to City in the community Etihad stadium as we're getting kicked out of the EPL

You forgot to add the ingredients had been sourced and the meal prepared by a small army of 12 Cambodian orphans @gordondaviesmoustache had flown in on private jets.

They aren’t all orphans.

 

[Stoned Rose]

They aren’t all orphans.

Dipping toe into the adoption game mate?

 

[jimharri]

So if we win and the prem have to pay us say £10-20 million in costs can we count that towards prs/ffp?

"if"?
