Relegation odds for next season. Laugh @ PL

There was no uproar aside from Barclays shareholders when he did that. When Mansour bought city and ever since, there’s been uproar from a far bigger community.

Basically what this comes down to is the fact you think football fans made a bigger uproar.

Mansour -> Dodgy investment in barclays -> criminal case

Mansour -> Dodgy purchase of Manchester land -> Local Politicians Defend him

What I also won’t do is support a false narrative to do the opposite either though.

So what are the facts which have led to this proposed prosecution of Barclays?

In June 2008, a capital raising (CR1) undertaken by Barclays secured £4.4 billion. A
subsequent capital raising (CR2) in November 2008 secured a total of £6.8 billion.

So far as CR1 and CR2 are concerned, it is the SFO’s case that the true position was
very different from that being publicly stated and warranted in the respective
Prospectuses and Subscription Agreements

CR1 was Qatar, CR2 included Mansours investment.

can't believe you have this much love for Mansour to deny there was a criminal case involving his investment in barclays.

Oh you’ve tempted me one more time did you read the paragraphs you took those quotes from? Who would be the sleighted party in that context?

You know there’s only me and you talking on this thread and given you posted the link, anyone can just actually read the judgment themselves?

I mean normally people post with ambiguity, you seem to be posting to intentionally make yourself look stupid? It’s intriguing, I’ll give you that!

The point at which Manchester City Council are prosecuted for facilitating Mansour's dodgy purchase of large amounts of brownfield land, is the point at which you can claim there was an equivalent uproar to Barclays directors being prosecuted for facilitating Mansour's dodgy purchase of Barclays shares.

Up until that point, a few football fans stamping their foot but holding nobody accountable for allowing this to happen doesn't cut it.

Is this a criminal prosecution of directors of barclays in which they facilitated Mansour to purchase shares or not?

Just state yes Mansour was one of the parties purchasing the shares in this criminal case, or no he wasn't. It's really that simple.

City’s odds have shortened from 25/1 to 16/1

Still 5/4 to win it though.

On Betfair, Arsenal are 3/1 to get relegated, United are 4/1.
