It’s just not possible mate. In reality if the league says we have resoundingly lost then you saying it on here will mean zip. The fraud claim will damage the club and the ownership model.Not at all mate.
It’s fine to ask.
But it’s also fine for me to say No.
I’m confident that, based on the level of detail I’ve provided - I’m ok.
That’s my judgement.
It may be proven to be wrong, but I’m comfortable with it as it stands.
Then you're getting into conspiracy theories which honestly arent applicable , when this verdict is released the panel have to demonstrate with iron clad legality why they have found whichever way they have, just saying guilty or not guilty wont do.maybe they know the panel isn't very independent and city would be fucked whatever evidence was produced
I don’t disagree with any of that.
But it’s not really related to what I posted - which was about PL reps still pushing the position that City didn’t have a leg to stand on.
Like I said - this could absolutely be based on a lack of closeness to the mechanics of the case, and indicative of the general corporate perspective on it all. Nothing more.
But it was interesting to me as, if there is an assumption that the results have either dropped already to the relevant parties - or are about to drop - there was no sense of conciliation or acceptance of City’s position in the comments.
That’s a long list mate.If the result is released & City prevail then I think it’s ok to name & shame the know nowt incompetent cunts….
If we're going to bring "maybe" into it I could probably come up with around 100 theories!maybe they know the panel isn't very independent and city would be fucked whatever evidence was produced
He’d still be asked for more details - we now don’t believe anything on here unless they are facts or clearly posted as an opinion by the poster.
tbf ric he may have posted in good faith but the reality is hes caused a shitstorm while saying nothing, if the dailymail or the sun said two unamed pl executives were confident that the pl had prevailed in the case against man city it would be rightly dismissed out of hand, this is no different. Its just noise with zero context i am not doubting nicholas in what he says but as accomplished as he is he will have known exactly how people would react and also that would people would want context.There's no need to berate @Nicholas van Whatsisface. As others have said, he's a good poster and not prone to wumming. I'm sure what he has posted is in good faith. It's unsurprising that both parties are bullish in their position at this stage, in the absence of the actual verdict.
Oh I think Tolmie was definitely inundated with questions & comments. Just like Stefan isWould they?
I remember not long after this whole thing started that Tolmie was posting stuff about being told "95% of the charges have been wiped off the table" etc. And that's no disrespect to Tolmie so please don't take it that way, and apologies if that wasn't the exact quote...but that was the gist of it.
No demand for names, source or confirmation...just pages and pages of people hypothetically jumping for joy.

Of course your firmly believe we are innocent you're a Blue, most rags firmly believe we are guilty of the lot!I'll show my arse in Burtons window if any of this is true. Firmly believe we are innocent. The man has the right to post what he wants but I'm not having it. If im wrong I will come back and apologise.
But if he posted he heard that they're not confident (the PL) it would be a "soft signal" and everyone becoming ecstatic over it?
It has to work both ways, Shirley?
Nobody is berating him but when a bombshell is posted, it’s bound to get lots of questions and comments. Otherwise there’d be no Bluemoon forum. I understand a forum to mean you can ask questions???There's no need to berate @Nicholas van Whatsisface. As others have said, he's a good poster and not prone to wumming.

I remember some weird cock and bull story on here that City had a recording of referees plotting against us in a derby and that was going to be the end of this case. What came of that one then?Would they?

Im just playing devils advocate here because basically all this has kicked off from someone with zero credentials saying something highly speculative with zero context and then refusing to provide any context which then just really amounts to screaming i want attention.
Ill do neither and tbh mate if you have been here that long then you should absolutely know that an assertion such as the one you made with zero context to it is obviously going to create melodrama anyone whos been here ten mins would know that.I’ve got no interest in creating melodrama for attention.
I’ve been on here for 17 years, and have no history of winding people up for fun.
I posted something that I heard directly which indicated the general view of some relatively senior people at the PL towards our case.
Nothing more. We didn’t get into a deep dive on any of it - but their position was one of bullish confidence.
There could be any number of reasons for their taking this position, and I’m not suggesting these people would be intimately involved in the case.
But if the result has already landed, and is known at the PL - I would expect them to know the general direction, if not the detail.
Take it or leave it.
You can, but you can't demand that they're answeredNobody is berating him but when a bombshell is posted, it’s bound to get lots of questions and comments. Otherwise there’d be no Bluemoon forum. I understand a forum to mean you can ask questions???
