Not worth arguing about it. We'll never convince them otherwise. Just amuses me how the PL is allegedly so corrupt on one hand, but on the other hand they're bastions of fair play and transparency when it comes to charging City. I don't care whether we're guilty or not, all I care about is getting off. If the UAE can cause a diplomatic stir and withdraw UK investment to get us off the hook then so be it. The RS and Rags were behind FFP and vetted Richard Masters - do they care about honesty and transparency? Do they balls. I'm quite happy to cheat the cheats. Nobody is interested in what we have to say, nor to they believe we have a right to defend ourselves. B*llocks to them.
Incidentally, I think it will be difficult for the PL to prove the allegations to the standard required. You're talking about complicity between publicly-listed companies, agents, players, auditors, executives and members of a royal family. Not easy for an independent commission to find us in breach.
