Whoever is responsible for bringing forward the 115 allegations is also at fault. The problem with having so many allegations is that if even one cannot be proven-and I believe there are dozens that the prosecutor cannot prove-then the City's lawyer could retaliate, jeopardizing the validity of the other provable allegations. They should only file a few allegations that have a very high likelihood of being proven by the prosecutor.

@-A-lm5xb 23 күн бұрын

Well the fact is there are only a few, four or five in total. The 115 is made up because they are alleged to have been repeated. A bit like if you get a parking ticket every day for a week it's not one charge, it's 7, and so on. The PL dropped an almighty bollocks by announcing it as 115. They almost certainly have nothing and I assume that they thought they would spook City into admitting something, but you can't prove what didn't happen. Why would the club be spending millions on increasing the stadium size if they were guilty? Why would United poach the main director said to be responsible for most of the deals? If Etihad Airways are to go public, like they have announced, their financial records would then be available for the public to view so it doesn't make sense from their point of view. The owners have an excellent business reputation around the world, why would they risk that and potentially put billions of dollars worth of contracts at risk for the sake of a handful of relatively small and meaningless payments? None of it makes any sense and the PL wouldn't have opted for a private hearing if they had anything substantial. I think they wanted to try to prove to the government that they did not need independent regulation. The mentality of the PL board, who are not lawyers or financial experts, was that they would show the world who is in charge and it's massively backfired on them. Let's also not forget that the PL is effectively the group of clubs in the league, so that's 19 clubs who have been taken to the cleaners and embarrassed by city over the past decade. There are strong rumours that the case was brought by Arsenal, United and Liverpool, the three clubs that would have won more titles had it not been for City's emergence and I know for certain that within all those clubs and United in particular that there are people who are very bitter that City have come along and broken up their little cartel at the top of the league. You can't tell me that they're not bothered, because it's not just the trophies but the hundreds of millions that City have collected in prize money used to be theirs. They can't stop City on the pitch so they're trying to stop them off it. Hey, I don't know any more than anybody else does but it all adds up.

Seems odd that you're all soooooo wrapped up in bitter jealousy, so wrapped up in hate that you wouldn't try and do a little digging or investigating yourselves between you all, yet NOT ONE PERSON ANYWHERE has come up with a single shred of evidence that City have done ANYTHING wrong.

Personally, I would consider walking away from the sport entirely, as there is no integrity in a corruptable league, and it just renders everything else worthless.

Nobody in the areas outside of England care if the teams coming up from the championship can compete on a level field (which they can’t anyway under FFP). The best teams are owned by foreign entities who are frankly tired of a biased body trying to artificially keep a status quo hierarchy of teams in place. The PL essentially said, “right then, what types of money do Liverpool, United, and Arsenal have in advantage over everyone else? Ok, those will be the only funds allowed” I’m not a City fan btw.

City's charges should never be allowed to be settled out of court. I perfectly understand it's financially more prudent to have such matters settled out of trial, but if the EPL are confident in these charges, then they should press on to fight them in court. It would ruin the integrity of the game and put the FA in disrepute more than Man City. A heavy fine and a slap on the wrist doesn't even remotely come close to justice for teams like Everton and Nottingham Forest who have fully co-operated with the FA. If they allow Man City to pay their way out, what message does that deliver to the league? Does it mean it's ok to now cheat but as long as you throw money at officials, then it's all good? The FA are an embarassment if they don't have the courage to see this through to the end. It would also suggest the FA are corrupt. This beautiful game is now ruined, tarnished and destroyed. Football has now become a corrupt business, rather than true sport honest fans pay to watch. All we want is a fair competition. All we're seeing now is a game that has been destroyed by greed.

Genuinely, if this does get settled out of court then every other football club and fan has a responsibility to protest and revolt. This is a joke! Settling out of court implies guilt, everybody knows this. A slippery slope for the FA if they choose this route. It will be the beginning of the end of the Premier league.

and yet again... 1. It is NOT a criminal case and has NOTHING to do with court. There is no court case. 2. It has NOTHING to do with the FA 3. You are all assuming it is the club that will be settling. The club have nothing to settle, it is the PL who has made the accusations so it is the PL who will have to make a financial settlement for the damage done to the club's reputation. Still going to protest and revolt? Because the only fans here who should be aggrieved are the City fans who have had to put up with this shite for the past year, and I for one hope it does finish the PL because the current lot in charge want locking up for the damage they have done in what should be the most exciting time EVER for the club and it's followers.

@-A-lm5xb Okay sure, yes, I'm using the word "court" as a figure of speech. You know exactly what I mean though. Yes, it's held by an independent disciplinary commission that will decide the verdict with unlimited powers. Of course both parties would be settling if the independent commission doesn't take place. Why would the PL have to settle for damage done to the clubs reputation if it's never concluded that Man city are actually innocent. Furthermore why the hell would Man city accept a settlement if they have 100% evidence that they have done nothing wrong. It's a win win for them to have the independent disciplinary commission conclude the charges as they would probs get a wack of money for the clubs reputation being damaged and then also the whole world would know they're innocent. Can you not think of one quite obvious reason why Man City wouldn't take this route??? I agree I feel sorry for City fans as they may have to suffer for the idiots in charge of their club, if guilty, but you're acting and talking like you know Man city has done nothing wrong already. I mean you must be a city fan clearly. And yes if the PL doesn't take it to the commission then absolutely there should be protests and revolts as it would stink the entire league out. Protests against the PL and Man City.

Which is exactly why there is a hearing that will take place on an undisclosed date, and it's in private because the PL wanted it to be heard in private, most likely because they have no evidence and don't want to embarrass themselves in public and are hoping that City will admit to something or give them proof of something. But you can't give proof to somebody if you haven't done anything wrong and there isn't anything to prove, which is probably why the PL are going to have to pay a settlement fee to the club to cover their legal costs etc. and the damage to their reputation over the past year and most likely for many years to come. This settlement thing isn't real by the way, just speculation that's been put out there, most likely happening now because they know City have two huge matches coming up with the final league match and FA Cup final.

Terry, this is why we need to have these conversations, as much as some people may not want to. A settlement does not look good for either side. It gives the impression that there was some leniency and/or slap on the wrist, for the violator/offender. It looks weak on the part of the governing body i.e. PL in this instance, and that the accused i.e. Manchester City has something to hide. A lot of times settlements are shrouded in secrecy and come with NDA's which prohibits either party involved from publicly discussing the terms of the settlement. Therefore, it never becomes public knowledge as opposed to court records. The people deserve to know the truth.

No, not exactly. UEFA, the European League, took City to court but the case couldn't be proven and was easily overturned on appeal. They were trying to impose a fine without any valid evidence. Notable - but never mentioned anywhere - was the UEFA didn't challenge the appeal or even turn up at the hearing. The only fine was for not providing documentation on time, but it was effectively the equivalent of a parking fine to you or me, nothing major. £6 million, or around US$8 million. The current case is more or less based on that one. The 115 charges is really only about 5 or 6 with the same charges supposedly repeated over time, like if you park in that restricted area today that's one charge, if you're still parked there tomorrow that's another charge, and so on.

Settlements are NOT an admission of guilt. Why is this so hard for people to understand? There are many reasons why two parties would settle. It’s not going to matter what happens either way; rival fans have already made up their minds and regardless of whether they’re cleared, settled, or convicted, the notion they’ve cheated is out there for those who want to believe it. It’s very obvious that the PL bit off more than they could chew. To truly throw the book at someone you need to focus the 115 charges down into the major grievances and pursue those. It’s not up to City to defend themselves, that’s the MAIN point people fail to acknowledge. The onus is solely on the PL to PROVE guilt. So if they can’t, and they settle on lesser charges, then the only people to blame are those at the league office.

1st thing 1st, the PL would not bring forth charges if they did not have outright evidence of wrongdoing. The issue here is that MC, like with UEFA, are failing to cooperate with PL investigators (this is one of the charges). If an Olympic gold winner refused to give a sample after a race, they would be stripped of said medal as those are the rules. If the athlete waited for a time period and then gave the sample, it would be flawed as any banned substances would have disappeared. This is similar to how MC escaped the payments from Etisalat due to UEFA's time bar. MC were found guilty of many things by UEFA, but were time barred. To receive a fine for not cooperating is better than the other side. Football should be the same as elsewhere in life, fail to cooperate (I'm not blowing into that officer), then you are guilty by default and receive the highest punishment. This would stop all of this nonsense. If the PL came to an out of court settlement, then this would be the biggest embarrassment as they do not have the 5 year time bar rule. They need to push it to the end regardless of outcome.

The other 103 are charges related to financials and them telling the PL to go fuck themselves.

It all depends on who blinked first. If the PL proposed a settlement, then City can either decline the settlement offer and take their chances in front of the independent panel. The PL's offer would be raised in the judgement and the panel may question why the PL would want to settle, considering all the fanfare the PL made of charging City. Remember the PL made these charges ONE DAY before the Government announced an independent body governing the PL. Remember Everton and Nottingham Forest admitted to their offences, and that is the reason why the judgement was relatively fast. City have always maintained their innocence, and NO ONE on here knows what evidence either side hold. I suspect City would win the case and then the PL would be in trouble, including Masterson (CEO) and Brittian (Chair of the PL), who both would have to resign. The charges are so serious, the PL have to prove fraud, which would include collusion of a couple of the 'big 4' auditing companies. Remember their reputations would be at stake if they had the wool pulled over their eyes, and before anyone claims 'they were in it', again their reputation would be destroyed. The PL have over-stretched themselves in trying to fend off the Government's proposal of an independent body, and they are now trying to save face, at the same time bring City 'on-board' by accepting a settlement, which would be probably be a fine for not co-operating. One final point, why would Manchester United hire Omar Berrada, whose fingerprints are all over the contracts which the PL were not quite right. United would be accused of not doing their due diligence if City and therefore Berrada were found guilty. Clubs are talking and I think they already know, they have to beat City on the pitch and not into pushing the PL to charge City, to protect the original elite clubs
