Man City appear to score victory over Premier League in landmark case as crucial vote dropped at 'last minute'

Premier League

Tottenham

<p>Per the Daily Mail, City appear to have scored a point over the Premier League in their legal battle over APT rules. A vote on a potential amendment to the system was dropped from the meeting that took place on Thursday.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The hearing is taking place in complete secret but the Mail reports that clubs were going to discuss potential amendments to APT rules, which govern how much sponsors can pay to clubs after entering into agreements with them. The vote was removed before the meeting could start, though, in what may be a hint that City have been successful in their legal challenge.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>This case is completely separate to the hearing that will see them face up to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-city-115-charges-explained-alleged-ffp-breaches-premier-league/blt5ed11b8b09706007" target="_blank">115 charges of potential financial mismanagement</a> throughout the Premier League era. They have denied any wrongdoing. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>City claimed that APT rules were unlawful and argued that the system of the Premier League requiring 14 clubs to vote through changes to the rules are unfair. It remains to be seen when the legal verdict will be made public but it is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/manchester-city-verdict-premier-league-legal-action/bltcd2fa5c1b10c5f54#cs5b626c41e3a2eaf1" target="_blank">expected this week</a>.</p>
