Did Khusanov do that to him do you think, yes?

Never

It’ll come when it comes. The commission wasn’t given a timeframe.

So crazy how we sweat over spending 25+m on players and they end up flopping, meanwhile that’s just the business as usual for them.

In most cases they’ve spent well over that for the likes of Reis, Khusanov, Gonzalez, Savinho, Doku and others and nobody bats an eye about them not playing.

Case still ongoing

Season is effectively over so I got to say:

I love how the entirety of these charges @shamrockgooner has to keep correcting people on what is actually happening :joy:

Why did you have to wait for the season to end to say that?

I didn’t have to, but it’s more funny to think of it that way.

Football finance expert Kieran Maguire believes Manchester City have the ‘upper hand’ in their battle with the Premier League regarding their 115 charges legal case.

In a separate hearing, Man City claimed an early victory when they challenged the Premier League’s Associated Party Transaction rules, which ensures clubs pay fair market value in deals with businesses linked to their owners.

They argued that, in relation to the Profit and Sustainability Rules, financial loans that clubs receive from shareholders should be treated as a subsidy and should therefore have a face-value interest rate applied for PSR.

After claiming victory in that case, City now reportedly want the rules applied retrospectively, which would directly impact Liverpool’s title rivals Arsenal who have the highest shareholder loans in the top flight at £324million.

If City get their way, Arsenal’s financial position might look worse when past loans are re-evaluated under the new rules — even though they weren’t breaking any rules at the time.

"I think, based on historical evidence, that City have got the upper hand over the Premier League. Nick DeMarco thinks it will be a score draw where the Premier League will win some of the 115 charges but City will have a far stronger case in others.”

As long as the cunts get booted from the football league, I don’t care if we + Liverpool have to pay a fine here and there.

My dude

In relation to this, football finance lecturer at the University of Liverpool, Maguire, told TBR Football: “Arsenal had a net interest cost of £5m in 2022 and £6m in 2023. The Kroenke loans aren’t that critical in the overall picture, so I don’t see this is as being an issue.

"I think, based on historical evidence, that City have got the upper hand over the Premier League. Nick DeMarco thinks it will be a score draw where the Premier League will win some of the 115 charges but City will have a far stronger case in others.”

That last point has always been the case. It’s always been pretty unlikely all 115 charges would stick and a “score draw” could still be incredibly damaging to city.

Thing to note - Only one party has been leaking information

Yeah, I have no idea what will happen but that score draw scenario is generally not good for the defendant.

“I’ve been judged innocent of half the murders I’m charged with!”

There’s at least 10 players in that squad of theirs that this is appropriate for:
