As I said the other day, if somebody is capable of hacking, they are also capable of doctoring. Impossible to prove as even if they are true, City will be able to provide alternative emails that show different.

That kind of depends on the security in place on the email client, servers and email data store.

Whistleblowing is someone on the inside leaking something. Hacking is someone stealing something.

Different things.

Yes he was extradited from Hungary back to Portugal to face trail I wonder if there was some influence at paly to get this organised. He has history has well when he bribed a bank and obtained money from them. So the emails he illegally obtained would not be admissible in a law court, who know what they choose to allow in a kangaroo, sorry UEFA court
 
City's statement could not be stronger. They have put UEFA and everybody else on notice that the judicial gloves are off. Whatever UEFA decide, they are in for a legal kicking. Perhaps one day, the 'Significant unresolved matters' will be the unmasking of dirty tricks by the G14/16 clubs and their UEFA henchmen.
Finally, the club's patience is exhausted. Can't wait for the denoument. C'mon City.
 
The whole manner in which this or any investigation has been played out through the media is entirely wrong. We have had leaks, allegations, off the record comments, assumptions and screaming headlines about what is meant to be an transparent and independent inquiry unfettered by vested interests. It appears that many journalists and pundits, notably those with other club connections and loyalties, no little about the so called FFP and their only concern is to undermine others, protect their own and attract faux outrage from partisan commentators. UEFA`s protectionist rules allegedly designed by influenced individuals will rightly face judicial review by a truly independent body.

They may not be doctored, but emails and actual financial statements that have been independently checked are different things. As far as i understand it, all the financial agreements were looked over independently and signed off, so if they are going off what it says on emails and assuming there is a paper trail to support them, they're probably gonna be bolloxed.

KPMG failed to spot a £1.5bn black hole in the Cooperative Bank's financial accounts so independent reviews kind of aren't worth the paper they are printed on - especially as KPMG are UEFA's FFP auditors.

Not it didn’t have to happen. If the IC found no wrong doing or recommended punishment of 100k euros or less, they didn’t have to bump it on to the AC at all.

Replied to a similar comment elsewhere - you're right, I disregarded that option, as I don't think it was ever going to happen.

Well most of the time i get to rip him for being a northerner supporting Spurs, for no reason and also Spurs continuously doing a spurs every season. However, this season i'd rather they didn't for this one game.

I dont think its banter though, its just what everyone thinks.

Doesn't work for a company called Peak by any chance?

I wonder if he also tried to blackmail City or the CFG and we told him to do one.
 
Ultimately it's their club, they make and interpret the rules, and we will have to comply if we want to maintain membership. Quite what format our compliance takes or appears to take is where this will be resolved.

What do you mean it is libellous?

The comments about Leterme are very strong. There would be a legal debate about whether they are libellous or not. What our statement shows is that our legal team must have some very strong evidence about what has happened on the investigating committee. They must know who has been leaking information from the investigation to the media.
