If this claim is upheld there's no reason why the PL won't retrospectively consider us breaking FFP when it was in place.

This is a shitstorm.

So thus stripping us of any achievement??

can see it now, rewritten history!

I wonder if 5th place might be good enough to get a certain team in red back in cl?

It was a cold war for a couple of years and now it's a real one. Had to happen so get on with it.

The club statement is robust in that it addresses the judgement on two levels:

1. The process - "The UEFA Chief Investigator publicly previewed the outcome and sanction he intended to be delivered to Manchester City, before any investigation had even begun"
2. The evidence - "The Club has always anticipated the ultimate need to seek out an independent body and process to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence in support of its position."

It's difficult to understand how the "comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence" can be squared with UEFA's judgement. That will be for CAS to consider.

Hope we don’t lose our top club sponsors due to not being in Europe. Otherwise less income coming into the club.
