I am sorry but no matter which way you put it, the Hateful Eight have broken EFL laws, at very least they should be charged for bringing the game into disrepute, yet no mention of a charge has been seen in the media,, the EPL and the FA need to be seen doing something to stamp out organized cheating within it`s ranks

... but wasn’t the new CEO of PL appointed after being interviewed by dippers and rags after the previous 3 (or was it 4) appointees withdrew - maybe after meeting the dipper and rag representatives .... all allegedly of course.

Why would we expect the PL to do anything other than nothing.

What a pity we don’t have the FBI over here doing to PL/FA what they did to FIFA

I have a feeling we’ll hear more about that when the time is right.
 
Sorry to add a note of pessimism to go against the overwhelming tide of optimism here [and that optimism may well be correct] but the danger here isn't that something will creep out of the woodworm to throw our case into unseen turmoil. What is more likely to spoil the blue bandwagon is the time it is taking to get the case into the courts, the delays and inactivity being a possible source of festering leading to players getting itchy feet and the club then having to get involved in another lengthy and expensive period of rebuilding whilst other clubs amongst the top six [???] with near enough squads are able to have a straight run at available trophies. As I indicate, it might not come to that but players such as KDB and Raz are wanted by other powerful clubs and they aren't likely to want to hang around if UEFA or the EPL are doing their best to throw their spanners into our works instead of encouraging the kind of game that Pep has introduced in his managerial career.

This corona virus stoppage has thrown a spanner into every clubs works. If City can use this period to nail down contracts and build trust with the players most of your mentioned fears could be eased. Big spending will not be on the cards for anyone while no ones making any money.
 
If they wanted to get rid of FFP they would have legally challenged it at any point in the last 10 years.

Our owners want what every top club wants, FFP to protect them from new competitors emerging whilst we turnover so much that it doesn't actually effect us, and that's where we are in 2020.
That's where we were until we got thrown out of 2 CL's.

Our best players still have three years or more on their deals, it will protect us in the main.

They include: Ed, KDB, Sterling, Jesus, Laporte and Bernie.

I've not seen this anywhere, shocking if true.

why would you assume they would leave? If they trust the club why would they

Seriously ? You haven't seen that anywhere ?
Portishead is being very generous by using the word allegedly. The Rags and Dippers had a meeting with the current CEO and it seems with all the others as well, it is even suggested that was the reason why the woman (whose name I forget) accepted and then refused to take the job . It did start to get in the media but it died a death and none of the wonderful investigative, hard hitting reporters bothered to ask why this had been allowed and what was 'offered' at this private meeting.
