PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[roypaulknewmyfather]

I’ve been waiting on this thread for a decision for too long
I should leave
But I can’t
Surely it will come tomorrow?

Regarding appeals. If City lose on any significant points, I envisage a scenario where we might lodge an appeal to a higher authority.

If the PL loses substantially, does anyone think they will have the appetite for an appeal, given the recent talk about escalating costs, and the effect of this on member clubs?

All the soft signals point to us winning, hence the £££ being chucked about.

They'll not be an appeal from the PL, maybe a bit of a grumble and the insinuation that dirty Arab bottomless pockets win again.

Definitely tomorrow.

BTW, what's Scott Bakula got to do with it?

Looks like the financial regulations are having the desired impact for certain clubs -

Most expensive signings of the summer:

1. Florian Wirtz - Bayer Leverkusen to Liverpool - £116m
2. Hugo Ekitike - Eintracht Frankfurt to Liverpool - £69m
3. Bryan Mbeumo - Brentford to Manchester United - £65m
4. Viktor Gyokeres - Sporting to Arsenal - £64m
5. Matheus Cunha - Wolves to Manchester United - £62.5m
6. Martin Zubimendi - Real Sociedad to Arsenal - £60m

I stand corrected but it still seems farcical due to Uefa deeming it at fair market value

Exactly. If it's at fair market value then there's no issue.

Its going well for the red cartel whilst Newcastle Aston Villa have to tread carefully despite having the cash to spend big. Ricky Masters and UEFA doing a great job of protecting the status quo. Liverpool needed the Moores money to become a big club. That would not happen now. Most Liverpool fans will conveniently forget or not know this fact.

That's what I think too.
Especially the tramps spending all that bread all of a sudden, very strange.
Red cartel wanker clubs showing their arse yet again.

yeah, is this part of the reason for the delaying of the verdict. Fucks up one more transfer window for us.

So what happened to the legendary net spend kings?

 

[Newman Noggs]

All this says to me that the architects of the current "financial sustainability" rules know they are about to be abandoned.

They ain’t it’s going to be in line with uefa but bit more leeway! Be all about annal wages % all that be interesting is if your over that % what point deductions going to be enforced?

And the scum are even running a dual accounting system which absolutely no-one is apparently investigating or challenging, but, the good news is, they're still scum and they've still got a shit team.

I hope they get smashed by Arsenal at home a week on Sunday in their 1st match. Maybe they need a triple accounting system to stop the wheels coming off from day 1.


Scum!

Surely if that's the case, City would also be spending like no tomorrow and might even be prepared to pay off the likes of Phillips and Jack?

Sesko going to number 2 on that list.
Surprised he’s gone to a club sacking people left, right and centre and, according to their owner, teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. No European football either, and no recent prize money to speak of and yet…

I know what your answer will be but are you insinuating that you've heard that we are ready to splash out and pay off Jack and Big Kal.....

Haha, exactly the opposite, sadly.

Too many of our players refusing to move on and run down their deals.

The same ones who all wanted rises and extensions after the Treble, as Txiki hinted towards.

Say what you want about Walker, and I've said plenty, but he chose playing before cash.

We dozed on the job.

And here was me thinking we'd done ok so far with transfers.

Wouldn't this be similar to insider trading - clubs acting in the knowledge of, but before an announcement? Similar to clubs acting pro-actively on knowledge of proposed rule changes. If United and Liverpool are getting the heads up from their appointee, Masters, that should be illegal too.
