PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

My understanding is that the costs are deducted from the pot available for distribution to the clubs in any particular year. So, it will depend when the PL gets/got the bill(s) from their legal team, and when the award is finally made

So, in that logic, we get penalised because we are part of that pot that pays for the PL idiocy?

My head is spinning now :-)

The decision so far doesn’t seem to be going by the football Calendar. It won’t change now.

It will drop out of the blue, most likely a Monday morning so the club could have the written verdict today.

Equally, the result is being buried for the good of football. The only idiot who mentions it now is spitman.

The whole point of the emails published by Der Spiegel was that they were deliberately taken out of context to appear far more damning than the bigger picture actually was. I said at the time that they posed what apparently were very awkward questions but we needed to see the full email chain to know the truth. And when CAS saw the full evidence they dismissed the substance of the sponsorship charges.

And you're quite right about the organisations we've worked for spinning things. A previous employer blew tens of millions on a failed (badly failed) attempt to build a new computer system. In the annual report for the period that covered the cancellation of that project there was no mention of this whatsoever. Fortunately they're privately owned but had they been a publicly quoted company, with the amount involved being material, that would have been tantamount to misrepresentation.

I believe the CEO paid with his job but that was spun as well.

Der Speigel you might say done a BBC. Taking things deliberately out of context to distort the reality of the situation. Unfortunately for us DS were far more successful than the Broken Biscuit Boys were.
 
The tribunal has announced a delay in order to replace all documents. The paper used is from Abu Dhabi and thus subject to the apt rules. Apparently mansour tried to pay Bobby manc in A3 but was rumbled….

Stay tuned for live updates outside klanfield with spit…

Growing up in East Manchester in the 60s a friend's mother tragically died. If you can imagine gangs of kids across A few streets of terraced houses that all played together. Well the two boys who were now brought up by a working parent,and aunties living across the street from their house, were regularly seen playing outside with a buttie in their hands (dad could manage that). Both of them were nicknamed big butties and baby butties by all of us kids. The names stuck for life with most people during their adult lives never knowing their real names. Sadly baby butties died earlier this year. Steven was 64 years old.

I suspect normal costs are being paid on a monthly basis and so are spread over the teams who are in the league in each of the years, as they are paid.

There would likely be a up front payment which will have been funded out of the PL's reserves, I suppose. Where clubs may have a shock is when each of them ends up paying their share of City's costs. I hope they are accruing for it :)

Anyway, screw Brighton. They were the club that started the ball rolling on APT when they sent their email saying the Gulf states needed to be stopped. And then weaseled out of it in the tribunal saying that isn't what they meant, even though they said exactly that. The cunts should have to pay twice as much as the others. Tell Maguire to choose a better example next time. The tosser :)

Are City also contributing to the PL legal fees?

In the 70s estates with semi detached houses were springing up and the more aspirational working class people (like my mum and dad) started moving from the terraces when they had kids. People used to call them “Jam Butty Estates” because all you could afford to eat once you’d moved was Jam Butties.
