PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I don't remember Khaldoon saying that in either of the last two years?

This is what you said: "Khaldoon has said all of those things in his end of season review for the last two seasons."

I don't think so.

But yes I made that claim and I stand by it. Khaldoon has been quite clear in his end of season reviews that we are completely innocent, have no end of evidence to prove it and will aggressively fight any suggestion to the contrary. Are you saying he has made no mention of the charges or has indicated something different?

Typical Paddy Power with there shit attention seeking headlines.
Just like when they had Ugo Ehiogu on the price list to be next Villa manager despite him dying a few months earlier.

Anything for a quick laugh and some publicity.
They’re basically the Bonnie Blu of bookmakers.

So, just for clarity, you stand by the claim that Khaldoon has said in each of the last two end of season reviews that the PL and the panel members have been taken aback by how the club has come with its defence?

As far as I am aware, no-one has ever made that claim before, hence my original post which started "The only interesting thing to come out of the latest articles was: "I think the Premier League will have been taken aback, as well as the arbitration panel really, how Manchester City have come with their defence," added Patel."

And just for the record, this is what you said about the quotes in my original post: "Khaldoon has said all of those things in his end of season review for the last two seasons."

Anyway, it's not really important. No need to reply unless you can give us time stamps of Khaldoon saying in each of the last two end of season reviews that the PL and the panel members have been taken aback by how the club has come with its defence. Which you won't be able to do because I am pretty sure he hasn't said that in either of the past two end of season reviews.

Never knew that about Ugo’s name appearing. That’s an absolute shocker mate.

FFS No. I said Khaldoon has stated they have been aggressive in there defence of innocence. It was Patel who said he "THINK'S the panel members have been taken aback by how the club has come with its defence. I posted a screenshot of the quote from the article.
So no I can't produce time stamps of Khaldoons comments because he didn't say those thinks and I didn't frikin say he did say those things.
You quoted what I said Khaldoon said and then decided to claim I said something else!

Paddy Power offers 66/1 on Ugo Ehiogu replacing Redknapp - BBC News

Bookmaker branded "sick" for giving odds on Ugo Ehiogu taking over at Birmingham City.
www.bbc.co.uk www.bbc.co.uk

They claimed it was an honest mistake.
In all honesty it could have been.
But his death was well publicised and still very recent.

Hard to believe it wasn’t picked up by staff.

Yeah, if that was the case it shows them up as a rank amateur outfit at the very least. A “mistake”’like that is unforgivable really.

It was Kieran Maguire who said that the PL were taken aback by our defence - he's a much more credible source than that Patel bloke whoever he is. I hope he's right.

I wonder what that actually means (in terms of them being taken aback)

My take is either the way we presented was very forthright.
And or we went fully on the attack and raised our own allegations against the PL and the cartel and pushing that their is an agenda beyond the stated reasons as to why City were charged.

Either way it’ll be interesting when it all comes out… if it ever fucking comes out.
