In addition to challenging the Premier League’s Associated Party Transaction (APT) regulations, Manchester City is still awaiting a date on their 115 charges case. This is the second front in their ongoing battle with the league.

This month, City’s private arbitration began after The Times published information about a legally-related leak from the Blues, who are attempting to get the APT regulations overturned. Professionals and experts have shared their opinions on the matter in recent weeks, and opinions on the implications for the case as well as the larger picture are mixed.

Of fact, the Premier League’s 115 charges across 14 seasons make up the larger picture. Allegations have been made regarding failure to comply with PSR and non-cooperation with the Premier League probe.

If there’s a chance that the two parties reach a settlement before the hearing, it was a question posed to football finance specialist Kieran Maguire and lawyer Stefan Borson, who was once an Etihad Stadium financial adviser, on BBC Radio Manchester’s ‘We’re Not Really Here’ podcast.

Both parties would undoubtedly save a significant amount of money, according to Maguire.

“It could mean that both parties could claim a victory, but I think in terms of public opinion and the reaction there’s likely to be from both the media, and I suspect from other clubs, it’s not really something that would be palatable to the Premier League nor City.”

“There are ways in which it could occur within the Premier League rules,” Borson continued. However, I believe they passed up the opportunity for a settlement. It would be quite impossible for them to find political common ground to resolve this now that it is public knowledge and the hearing is quickly approaching.”

All parties concerned will have significant obstacles as a result of the quantity and complexity of the allegations, and it is possible that the hearing may be partially or completely postponed. The case will be heard by an independent commission with nearly unrestricted authority, and possible punishments include fines, point deductions, and expulsion from the Premier League.

“Manchester City will of course be aiming to be cleared of all charges, and nothing should be ruled out in this quite extraordinary case.”

On the APT legal action

BBC Sounds: Football financial specialist Kieran Maguire City believes regulations aren’t well-considered and seeks to preserve its advantages.

“City believes the Premier League has not accurately calculated the time, impact, or unforeseen implications of the new regulations because they are being implemented midway through a season. They believe that a lobbying group made up of other clubs is pursuing them as a club. As far as Premier League clubs go, City is arguably the only one that has made it clear time and time again that they support an independent football regulator, presumably because they disagree with the way the Premier League is taking.

“They wish to safeguard their status as the Premier League’s most prosperous business entity. Manchester United has been surpassed in

Borson on talkSPORT – The backdrop to the situation is animosity

City and the Premier League are at odds. The most serious charges that may be made against them in terms of 115 are those of dishonesty and fraudulent accounting.

“This situation is set against a background of hostility. Although we would always anticipate the teams seated around the table to be battling for their own positions, I wouldn’t characterize it as a civil war. There has always been tension during certain Premier League matches.

Since City has won six of the last seven titles, you would think that every club seated around the table would be attempting to stop them. It is quite acceptable to attempt to impede City’s progress. Although City hasn’t actually followed the rules, they recently won their fourth championship in a row, therefore nobody could

“After reading the news release with the 115 accusations, I didn’t find any particular references to the events of the next two weeks. Nearly all of the [115] accusations are pre-2021 and pertain to a variety of other topics, including the duty of cooperation, manager compensation, PSR adherence, and UEFA FFP laws. These additional rules were implemented after 2021.

Some may believe that even if Man City triumphs, the charges will still need to be overturned. The truth is that I believe them to be quite different.

This is a fairly specific debate regarding the appropriate valuation of business contracts between parties connected to a club. Without reference to football, no one would be concerned about

Football finance expert Rob Wilson to OLBG – City are trying to avoid a hearing over the 115 charges

“For Manchester City, this is the final proper role of the dice. Everton and Nottingham Forest losing points has clearly put a great deal of pressure on the Premier League, and when Leicester City is promoted the following season, there will be a significant argument.

“Everything was pointing to the Manchester City v. Premier League case beginning in the fall, so this is a last-ditch effort to try to stop it all by claiming our lawyers are superior to your lawyers.

This is an additional effort to allocate Premier League resources in various ways. I believe that’s the real reason why the case involving the 115 accusations has to be heard for such a long time—City will have been preoccupied with concluding the Premier League with various legal disputes and conversations.

The lawyers are the only ones who are winning in this legal game they are playing. I believe that Manchester City is trying to avoid going to court with this last-ditch effort.
