Two Year Academy Transfer Ban Imposed On City

[kaz7]

Typical city...
Someone needs their p45

Not been a great year for those running things behind the scenes.

FFS! How hard is it to follow the rules!???

Well they were always going to find a way of scuppering our youth development and sending the next generation to our rivals.

Is this a youth ban or full ban? I'm getting bevvied and I'm not reading the article.

So I assume this is what Tolmie meant when he said David Gill was trying to stop us at Academy level?

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

I await the club statement with interest.

Just domestic youths..we can still plunder the rest of the Earth

Me too. Spin, spin, spin.

So what? How many of our youth make the first team or are even given the chance? We have two good young full backs yet shipped them both out on loan and play bloody Navas at right back. Having said that our chairman needs to get off his backside and kick some arse! Behind the scenes in our administration, dealings with the media and fan's we are a bloody shambles!

We seem toothless at so many levels.

It would appear Mancini was right.

The recent documentary has caused this, all clubs do it, but only some get punished, and as we all know the FA are basically the admin arm for the rags these days...

Fawlty Towers FC ?

It needs adjusting

There's really no excuse. Those who deal with this kind of thing must surely of been aware how much focus is on the club and that the authorities would be watching us like hawks to ensure we do everything right and above board.
I doubt the punishment will hold us back too much but the adverse publicity will once again stick to us like shit on a stick.

 

[HelloCity]

I believe we've broken rules we shouldn't have but would imagine that it's something that goes on all the time at the big clubs.

Thing is, we have to be more careful and extra cautious at City because they're actively looking for things they can do us over with.

We should be going the extra mile to make sure everything is above board because of that.
