City Launch Legal Challenge Against PL Charges & Barrister

[Original Dub]

If we're found guilty of fraud then lots of people have to go to prison.

Am I missing something here?

Are we not accused of fraud on a grand scale? And if so, why aren't customs/revenue not in the middle of a full scale investigation??

Who are our auditors? PwC? Wouldn’t they look like incompetent morons and it would completely ruin their reputation? A load of moving parts here and a lot of people that may sue this “independent” panel if were found guilty. Prem are fucked imo

It's not a court of law.

It's not a court of law.

But surely HMRC would get involved if they’re saying we’ve paid Mancini from another source so it doesn’t hit his UK account?

He’d have dodged tax? As I say, a shit load of moving parts that will involve the Prem being sued by a lot of people/companies if they find us guilty of anything apart from not cooperating

Can pay someone off legally with another overseescompany mate - fuckall the UK government (stinking thieving cunts) can do about it .

I think you will find that Lord Pannick will be reminding the PL that continuing with this Vendetta will have the PL and other persons involved previously , up in a court of law. They screwed up badly here ( pl) and our owner has enough dosh to go after them

Should be direct charges for conspiracy

So long as he's paid the right amount of UK tax

So many charges of us cooking the books, I'm amazed none of it is illegal.

As Columbo would say
"Something just doesn't add up"

Fraud is obviously illegal. But you can allege fraudulent conduct in a civil court, if you like.

Standard of proof will be as agreed in PL rules for arbitration - probably 'the balance of probabilities' rather than the criminal standard of 'beyond reasonable doubt'. Much easier to meet. Like how Trump is a rapist according to the civil courts but he's not in prison.

[Original Dub]

That's America mate

[Original Dub]

PS Trump is a rapist??

[blues2win]

The standard of proof in CAS was ‘reasonably satisfied’. The burden is on the PL to prove their case to whatever standard of proof the Commission decides on.

Yeah, but so far , they are not in a civil court. It's some cellar room at the Arse's Emirates stadium. If this was a normal Civil court case , it would be thrown out , on grounds of stupidity. It is more than alleged fraud. it is claiming sponsors and City cooked the books, that is not alleged that is a definite statement. I hope we wipe the floor with them.

There are so many ways to stop thieves from stealing your hard earned money.
Man City have the best minds in the business , I'm sure.

Leicester win their appeal against the PL about PSR violations. The PL say they are "surprised and disappointed" but are unlikely to appeal.

Hopefully the PL will be "surprised and disappointed" again pretty soon.

[blues2win]

The Appeal stated that Clubs are entitled to rely on the plain meaning of the wording of rules and not have to take account of what the PL meant or other Clubs meant in approving them. Well done Leicester. The PL drafted the rules so the egg is very much on their face.

At which point will cunts start paying attention....

"Premier League did not have jurisdiction to punish them"

I try to avoid that cunt Jordan on TS but he said today that he doesn't agree with the PSR, why shouldn't a club with money and a business plan who are trying to levell the playing field.....

Like I say I avoid the cunt, but by his own measure he must be on our side or one massive hypocritical cunt.
