PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I recall press criticism during the 1980 s of Peter Swales, with the press complaining that Swales only offered free tickets to local Protestant schools. I do not know if that press allegation had any basis in truth, but certainly it was an allegation that was made… I went to a Protestant school and recall our football team would regularly receive free tickets to attend games at Maine rd. Looking back, I think it would be a great pity if the kids at the Catholic schools, or other schools too, were not gifted tickets as we were.
I went to Christ The King in Newton Heath (Catholic school). We got taken to City during the 80's. We never got given tickets for United.

In those days, this sort of thing was very much at the whim of the chairnman or other senior folk. Bernard Halford was active in giving away tickets. Nowadays, of course, the clubs work out where the commercial advantage lies and allocate tickets accordingly. Not necessarily better.
 
Apparently the club have said that nothing will be announced until people stop going on about protestants catholics and david fucking bowie
Protestants, Catholics and David Fucking Bowie sounds like a Film4 movie from the 2000s about a Northern Irish kid who is bored of the troubles but into glam rock.
