PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

High tea is a British meal that traditionally includes heartier dishes such as meats, fish, eggs, breads, and other substantial foods, along with tea. Unlike afternoon tea, which is a more delicate, upper-class affair with finger sandwiches, scones, and pastries, high tea was originally a working-class meal served in the early evening (around 5-7 PM) after a day's work.

The name "high tea" comes from the fact that it was eaten at a high dining table, as opposed to the low, comfortable tables used for afternoon tea. Over time, the term has been confused with fancy afternoon tea, especially in hotels and restaurants, but traditionally, high tea was more of a dinner-like meal rather than a light snack.

Why’s he’s spouting out shite to his masses then on a touching subject. Reeling in “fellow” city fans just to make a bit of coin for himself as someone else posted he’s not far off goldbridge

Costs and damages - what Man City could get for beating 115 charges

A look at the millions that would be owed to Manchester City if they are cleared of the main charges levelled at them by the Premier League
www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk

I am confident this is correct:

“Whilst we know from the published Everton costs hearing that there is no restriction on the Independent Commission in terms of costs, it is likely to be asked to, and will, treat the proceedings akin to High Court commercial litigation," football finance expert Stefan Borson told the Manchester Evening News. "In doing so, the general rule is that it is fair for the unsuccessful party to pay the successful party’s costs. This is especially so where a party fails to prove serious allegations of fraud where courts generally award the highest percentage of recovery (known as indemnity costs). Likewise, a finding of fraud against City is likely to give rise to the Premier League getting the vast majority of its costs from City."The complexity can arise where, as in City’s case, there is a range of allegations and where the decision may not be binary. In those cases, the courts (and therefore the IC) will look, as a matter of substance and reality, who has 'won.'

"Then it considers whether, despite one party having won in the significant sense, there are any matters which the other party has succeeded on which took a significant amount of additional time and resource to contest. This might include the co-operation charges."From there it is for the party claiming costs to show that it’s costs claimed are reasonable and proportionate except if one side is awarded the indemnity costs as could be possible in this case."In summary, if City were to successfully defend all the substantive allegations regardless of the cooperation outcome, they could expect to recover 80-90% of their costs.”

That answers that then, thanks for that.

Little people

I watched a documentary about midget wrestlers who were apoplectic at the idea that other people have decided they should be called "little people" and it cost them money and jobs. There was also a stink about that lad from Game of Thrones who said having 7 dwarves was offensive or something so 7 midget actors got sacked and given to others. Might be half remembering that.
