Not sure he’s any sort of shill but you have to remember with these media football finance / legal experts is there is so much money in this field that the real top experts will be working away, not chatting about it on Talksport and arguing all day with folk on Twitter.

Talksport has a massive audience. Dont understimate the power of a national outlet like that and those who use it for a purpose.

He was in the talksport studio the very next day after Masters parliamentary sh!t show defending the PL and putting the boot into Everton. You've only got to read the city fans comments about him to see what they think. He's very subtle how he goes about it but he most certainly doesnt go for the jugular in the same way he does with Everton. Nothing would surprise me. The PL took a kicking in the commons. And now this fella is banging their drum.
Ok.

He was indeed in Talksport the next day but that isn’t his first appearance on there.
I have read many City supporters comments on him and yes I find it amusing that so many have bought into his “ can’t prove the charges “ narrative that said he has tempered comments slightly.
He applies a lot of guesswork when reaching an opinion but now you case has had written reasons published his opinion isn’t based on dots that haven’t been joined .
Do you really think he is banging the PL drum ?

4.2. 4.3 and 4.4 stand out big time there with everything that has been made public about the IC and everything else that’s fallen into the plug domain and that is only what has been made public.

The threat of not taking it is enough to make the PL want this story to go away but a good lawyer will do the rest.

Got to say, I’ve no idea to be honest. Just seems it’s not a simple as a right to arbitration. But who knows eh? It’s all depressing

It's incredibly weird how anybody other than the most hopeless city fans are buying anything that guy is selling. His whole giddy "but you can't prove the charges against city - trust me, I'm a lawyer" thing is so slimy and trolly. It's also inherently dishonest, given that City's commercial income has over the years included sources that were not just fraudulent, but flagrantly so, like published sponsorships from companies (at least one, anyway) that literally did not exist at any point as going concerns. And some of the other stuff like third party payments to players and managers should also be very easy to prove.

It's already been proven once. They got off on a technicality. See my post towards the top of the following page (I would ordinarily just quote my post, but I've inserted the relevant facts with the 'quote' function.)

10 Point Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

Time will tell, but I do not think they have the balls to make such a huge decision to the dominant force in English football at the moment It's not testicles they lack, it's evidence. All they have is the same nonsense CAS threw out.

Yes. He couldnt have been any further up theirs and the independent review boards arse on jim whites show.
The subtle part was with city. His tone changed instantly.
Maybe i would be the same if i was asked to comment on the team i support. Even subconciously.

Usually in general sense in wider society an appeal can’t be because you firmly disagree with the decision, you have to provide some substance as to why the process was not followed correctly or accurately that led to a penalty being imposed.

Plenty of inaccuracies have been quoted and published so there’s a starting point to a case.

Ultimately it can go any way this at this point as we don’t know the details let alone if an appeal is being scheduled let alone heard. We found out the first hearing was taking place the Friday before so who knows

I really don’t want to pay him any credit but was he that wrong in what he said about the findings( not the sanction )of the IC based on what we know? As I say I don’t agree with a lot of what he says but I found his comments re City were riddled with bias not even sure it was close to subtle

Ive no issue with the findings. The sanction yes. He stated he had no issue with either. He was very pro the IC selected.
Its never sat well with me that the former finance director on the IC was at west ham when they got charged over carlo tevez.

If the stadium build is causing us problems with our finances, why don't we just pause the project until we back on a more even keel and then continue?

Because when you pause it it’s really really hard to start it again. All those people will go on to other jobs and sites. Materials will be reallocated, annd when you decide to start up angain it won’t just be all anbaikabje to clock into gear angain. And it will cost more money As a result. Plus, you might get stuck in a situation where you can’t afford to restart again, a sort of catch 22 situation I guess
 
If stadium/infrastructure is a criteria what is the news regarding Liverpool taking circa £110 million on to build big stand?

And this:
Liverpool made a loss of £49.8million for the 2012-13 season, and £40.5m for the 10-month period before that but have been able to write off a big chunk of losses as allowable stadium expenditure - the 2011-12 accounts reported that £49.6m was associated with Liverpool's stadium costs, £35m coming from former co-owner Tom Hick's aborted plan to build a new stadium on Stanley Park
