Lol, very trueThey have to have bollocks in the first place before they can drop off.

We don't have much influence in the corridors of power.He speaks well, but he's talked a few times about ' taking the pinch' . I have seen not evidence of the negotiating strength of this club. The authorities malign us, we seem to pay top dollar for signings, Bayern Munich unsettle star players without public resistance by ourselves, media continually malign club owners and now fans for daring to support our club, reporters continually ask insulting questions and remain anonymous .... as far as I can see, our Chairmain needs to talk less about taking the pinch and grow a set of bollocks. Walk quietly but carry a big fucking stick. C'mon City start using some muscle, the softly softly approach ain't working

My response to all this if I was Sheikh Mansour would be to make Man City stronger and win the long game. Start with that North Stand expansion. Raise the bar all round.

I'd suggest that they broke the law is the problem and while I'm no lawyer I find it hard to believe that a civil agreement can negate a criminal act.
The issue for me here is that we are the paying customers and the least City fans deserve is a statement from our own club explaining what has happened. It has been reported by the Times (and not denied by anyone) that our scouting network has been hacked into hundreds of times over at least an 8-month period and the person who is reportedly responsible was later promoted to Sporting Director at the current European Champions. That is a major story in anyone's book. This incident is another one which has made our club look stupid and damaged our reputation. There is a bit of a pattern emerging here. We are a soft touch. The FA's lack of action is not a surprise. They are too busy investigating vital issues like Bernard Silva's tweets about one of his friends.We agreed to the £1m settlement so I genuinely don't see what there is to see here. Not having read this whole thread, does anyone know if Liverpool actually bought players on the back of this info, or got scouts from us on the information that was gleaned?
