UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

[PrezIke]

Not even sure what to say others than regretfully I told everyone this was going to happen even those who kept trying to say legally they couldn’t do it.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

I just wondered if this is a warning shot from (someone at*) UEFA to get us keep quiet about any evidence we may have about the PL being bent?

Absolutely no reason not to mass protest in the stadium. Banners, chants, let them add another year on.

Thing is they won't give a fuck.

 

[George Hannah]

I am genuinely not bothered about the CL as a competition but respect the club and a majority of fans are George.

Its also one thing not being arsed and another an organisation trying to ruin the club financially and in name.

it's Brexit revenge

 

[BlueAnorak]

The home leg should be played out before an empty stadium.

Anyone going wants their heads testing.

Nah - I want to boo every time a Real player touches the ball. A bear pit.

 

[brummie blue]

So the cartel of Barca, Madrid, Utd, Bayern, Juve etc get their way, the media reports earlier in the week was clearly a sign we knew what was coming.

We are going to look very stupid if we don't have a defence, appeal or challenge in place - but whatever we do probably won't make any difference anyway it's UEFA competition and they can do what ever they want.

New european league anyone ?

 

[Gray]

Let's just win the CL this season and take the time off. No defending champions in it devalues the competition amd UEFA miss out.

Much as I would like to win it just to stick two fingers up at the corrupt twats, we simply are nowhere near good enough to do it.

 

[Ban-jani]

I’ve had several fans of lower league clubs text me saying the whole thing is bent.

Says it all.

 

[super_city_si]

Good news is we wont fire pep for not winning it. Cant win it if we're not in it.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Gonna sell my ridiculously priced tickets

Sell them to who, lol.

 

[Ban-jani]

Much as I would like to win it just to stick two fingers up at the corrupt twat, we simply are nowhere near good enough to do it.

We wouldn’t be allowed even if we were.

 

[bluestevei]

lets see if city have big balls and go for them, or take it up the arse,and take it on the chin
and I don't want to take a 1 year ban because that will still mean we are the sinners

TAKE IT TO THEM CITY AND FUCKING GO AT THE FUCKERS TO GET AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE OFF THEM
and if we do take it on the chin and let them fuck us over then im done with football

 

[meltonblue]

This was always going to ultimately end up in this state.

Personally, I'm glad that it finally has. Now we can properly see what evidence both sides has and we will know whether our faith in our owners has been well placed.

 

[Metalartin]

With the length of the ban and a fine ontop, I'm not even confident of what the CAS's decision will be anymore. It almost seems like they know something City doesn't.

I'm starting to think we should skip it and take them to the European high court. Or at least somewhere truly independent of all the corruption. Not only get that joke verdict squashed but seek damages from UEFA and all the press organisations that have overstepped their mark in damaging our reputation for however long this has dragged out.

 

[Gordyola]

Didn’t expect this even though I am fully aware that UEFA and the Cartel clubs were going all guns blazing for us. I’m in total shock. Can we successfully fight it?

This is what they have been waiting for now it begins it’s out of UEFA’s hand now going to CAS first which is independent

 

[leithblue]

it's Brexit revenge

this is sarcasm right?

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Feels so dirty and we’re being treated as weak

bring down the empire with exactly what they despise, money to do so!

 

[VOOMER]

Thanks for your insightful reply, you mug. You do what you want to do and I'll do what I want to do. If people have wanted to boo in the past then I've been happy to watch them, I've not wanted to join in, I'm not a sheep, I do what I want to do, when I want to do it, and now I choose to boo, so mug off.

The moment FFP was brought in, it was fairly clear that we were the target and that's why most people booed.

 

[mat]

Here we fucking go.

Popcorn time.


No one will come out the other side unscathed.

 

[jaiguruKun]

They've banned us for two years as a result of the CAS appeal and to try to discredit the leak which said they would ban us for only one.
