PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Some people have suggested that they may have moved onto 'part 2' and would publish both the liability outcome, and suggested penalty simultaneously, but later. No idea how feasible or not that is. I don't fond it illogical, but I don’t quite believe it. On nothing more than gut alone.
It seems unlikely to me, simply on the grounds that to move onto the 'punishment' phase they'd need to have told us which allegations had been proven, otherwise, how can we provide mitigation?
 
There is a clear suggestion that City should have acted differently at the outset of proceedings. What they should have done differently and how that would have affected the timescale is my question. Listen to Stefan's first answer on here at around 4'50 referring to the parameters as an example.



If I was City, and the PL came to me in these circumstances and said, yes we know we all signed up to this procedure but we want to tell the panel to have it all settled by the summer, is that OK? I would have told them to fuck off and, when they get there, to fuck off again and, if they did try it, we would take them to arbitration and the high court if necessary and lose another two years. I don't get the impression that the club are in much mood for compromise on this whole thing unless its on favourable terms.

Who knows? Maybe the PL tried to impose timing on the panel and that is exactly what the club said, and did .... (yes, I know I shouldn't have ....)
 
Whilst the formal verdict is not in, how have City persuaded so many players to sign contracts/ extensions?

If you were Guehi, and you had 4-5 clubs chasing your signature, why choose City if we potentially have a relegation sentence hanging over their heads? City must have a convincing way of addressing such fears.
come on they sign for city signing on fee and good wages might win something but it goes pear shaped sign for another top team signing on fee good wages chance to win something their little down side plus past history city dont hang on to players that want out
 
Yes, but who exactly says it is late?
Not Lord P, and if it was late he'd be saying so, wouldn't he?

I stand by and will always stand by my claim that there is no delay, jc.
I think the consensus among the bewigged is that it is surprisingly slow in coming - i.e. the delay is unjustified.
I was thinking about standing by my claim but on balance it's better to be standing about thinking ;-)
 
Khaldoon clearly knows that Trump is a stupid and arrogant ****, but is determined to milk the US for as much as possible.

The " Board Of Peace" is an absolutely perverse oxymoron when considering the position that Trump holds within the organisation.

An egotist and 100% physcopath who is so focussed on massaging his own ego that he surroundeds by yes men/women as deranged and pathetic as himself.

The stupidity of this shitshow cannot be understated, but there is a serious undercurrent which should not be overlooked.

Trump believes that he is so fucking clever, but there are many more who are nicely positioned to make the most of Donald's ego and stupidity, and that is a very satisfying thought.

And the moronic element is so appropriate when watching the ramblings of a total uber **** who reduces the status of the post of the President of the US into a shameful and unstatesmanlike era never witnessed before.
Who are these people nicely positioned to make the most of Trumps stupidity?

Surely that should be liability outcome and agreed compensation to City simultaneously?

And no, I don't believe either scenario myself, it just is what it is.

Have you any proof at all about this bewigged consensus?

This is why i love you :)

Argued the same when it was suggestsd before.

But it is not like we would know either way.

Although i can't be arsed to research/find it, i definitely recall, a fair few months ago, at least one wanker from on high at a premier league club moaning, out of the blue, about how long it was taking and that in future such matters of timescale should be addressed in advance, or summat like that.
Which might well tie in with your suggestion.

The club gets the reasons either way. The only question is publication. I think it is unlikely they wait until the end but it is theoretically possible and the wording of announcements and the rules is not precise on the point.

Hopefully every other country than the US or Russia.

Not exactly sure what Khaldoon's role in the latest bullshit organisation headed by Trump, but it is bound to be financially loaded, and thus it must be worth it for the Arab states to get themselves a piece?

Why would the club want delays unless they actually did something wrong

I'm probably misunderstanding what you're saying here, so apologies in advance, but wouldn't they need to tell us their decision before we move to the sanctions stage? Everyone seems to be adamant that they haven't heard anything yet though, so how could they have moved to the next stage?
