PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Eric Hitchmough]

I'll be surprise if it's before April to be honest the paperwork looks horrendous

When you saw the paperwork I don’t suppose you caught a glimpse of the ‘verdict’ section, did you? ;)

been announced yet?

People just seem to be arbitrarily deciding when they think the announcement will be, and then getting annoyed if it doesn't materialise! Doon' think there was ever anything concrete to suggest it would be today (or this week for that matter), other than a couple of Twitter rumours? I think @Prestwich_Blue is probably right when he says that something would have leaked by now if the announcement was imminent. Almost certainly will happen today now that I've said that!

So tomorrow then? Cheers Ric!

Yep. Didn't you hear? Fined £350m, and demoted down to the Vanarama, with a ban on promotion for the next 10 years.

We don’t know they know the result

How do you know?

I did but I'm not telling

How do you know?

"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don't know we don't know."

 

[elbearos]

I hadnt thought of the no promotion

 

[M12Blue]

Quite clearly being prepared as an April Fools prank.

 

[SilverFox2]

because they have to give concrete legal reasons why the result is the result otherwise they are opening themselves up to legal challenges. I'll be surprise if it's before April to be honest the paperwork looks horrendous

To find us guilty or innocent first then give legal reasons for that initial decision does seem a little cart before the horse.

I thought their legal reasoning brought about the decision so why the delay?

I definitely know nowt, that much I do know.

You sure about that?

 

[I'm Blue]

I’m not arsed when the verdict comes just as long as we win.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

How do you know?

How do you know we don't know they don't know the result?

 

[Keeper!]

So tomorrow then? Cheers Ric!

 

[foggy1974]

They are dropping us and it’s back to those badly fitting Le Coq Sportif shirts. It’s a soft signal.

If it were Umbro then that would be a different matter

Same. But at the same time, I'd like it finished, and a line drawn under the whole saga.
