PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I wouldn't read anything - positive or negative - into Puma signing a deal with the PL and rumours that the independent regulator is going to be scrapped. I doubt either of those have anything to do with our case.

I’ll posit a theory.

Perhaps if the PL lose the City case and we’re fully cleared it could maybe force the PL to get back around the negotiating table with the EFL.

The lack of PL and EFL deal appears to one of the main drivers of the regulator.

Currently the PL are saving huge sums by not renegotiating the current deal in place with the EFL.

But if they’ve lost the City case they need something, anything, to try to demonstrate that they are competent.

This deal with the EFL could relieve some pressure on them in the wake of the 115 case.

It’s another soft signal. Probably about as soft as me trying to wank while looking at a photo of a naked Ann Widecombe legs akimbo.

For the people worrying about the verdict being announced today or not... I'd chill out a little bit.

I think most of the ITK posters/social media pages are recycling information and making educated guesses.

I do think there's a good chance we'll find out this week, but it won't necessarily be today. In any case, I'm confident it's going to be good news for us.

Puma is not a city exclusive company

I suppose it doesn’t matter when it’s announced as long it’s the correct decision and we’re cleared.

We’ve waited 2 years. What’s 2 more months.

That has literally made me gag on the 2nd bite of my sarnie.
 
Why the fuck can't people just wait for the white shmoke ??

It's fucking incredible how waiting for it has consumed people's sad lives when there are important matters like shifting the away fans to consider.

Don't be so obsessive.

The voice of reason is always here to help.

As has been mentioned on here previously, and as happened with the CAS verdict, the parties get an advance copy of the verdict a few days before it's made public. This is so any obvious errors can be corrected. At that point there will almost certainly be leaks.

When Ian Cheeseman prematurely announced the CAS outcome, I'm pretty sure his information was legit, and not a lucky guess. I'd be surprised therefore if the formal announcement came completely out of the blue.

Well in that case, City are to be hit with a 40 point deduction.
