Not only is this correct, but we should make sure that clubs all around europe understand this.
Start with Red Bull and Newcastle.

Feel sorry for teams such as Leeds who could be open to major investment I mean what’s the point when they will not be allowed to dine at the top table of Europe. Red bull will be looking over there shoulders tonight as they could be thumped . As for us we will not be seen to win even if we do because uefa is an institute and will not be toppled . We will definitely serve a one year ban from Europe which I will take and I’m not even bothered about pep going as he will be gone after next season anyway. I’m very nervous about the owners and there take on this as they are everything to us

No I’m not having that mate. Anything we’ve won has been because we’ve been the best side playing the best football, end of. You think hacking our scouting database is fucking honourable? You think smashing out coach up was fucking honourable?
And if, if we cooked the books a little, we did it to circumnavigate protectionist rules brought in purely to protect the so called elite by stopping our owners investing in our football club. Honour? do me a fucking favour

I didn’t say we haven’t been the best side in the league probably ever, and I include that we are better than this current Liverpool team, what I’m saying is no fan of any other club will ever acknowledge our achievements because they have been indoctrinated into the idea we have in some way cheated. Forget that we haven’t in anyway on the field of play and haven’t splurged cash in the way other sides have. We look dishonest, they can question our honour integrity whatever you want to call it and that is shit.

More tripe.

They've been saying we've cheated for years. I do not accept the validity of UEFA's court. It's a complete farce and a kangaroo court where other clubs and leagues get to deal with a rival club.

UEFA bent their own rules to screw City in the first place.

I know it will be tough. And we face a long war of attrition but City fans are loyal and have been tested before.

Not once did I question the loyalty of fans mate my point was we don’t deserve this shit as fans nor do we deserve every plastic no mark fan of every other club taking the piss.

Not being funny but can you not stand your ground against plastic fans ?

The fuck?

It's not like we've been caught match fixing. I fail to see how spending too much money our owner is/was happy to spend in any way shape or form takes away from any achievements.

We're 24 hours in from this. We've got years on this ahead of us. I guarantee you that a few weeks in we'll have a few City fans saying they are fed up of football and they are jacking it in.

So we aren’t the best team? We have splurged cash? There’s been no indoctrination? Which bit is tripe?

Its tripe that we "look dishonest". Do you not know any history of other clubs and what they have done to get success ? Do you honestly believe we look more dishonest than any other club ? Im not even sure you not on a wind up but if youre not and youre really a blue then please get a bloody spine

He's having a bad moment. Have a look at BBC Gossip and Sunday's papers and it's not hard to see why.

We've got months and months of this sh't to put up with.

Football’s shite. A lot of us are sick of it already.
But looking forward to City fighting this and really hoping they finally will.

Don’t understand how anyone considers winning being entitled to play in their corrupt tournament again though.

I agree, but that's exactly why we need fans to step up not hand wringers cringing at every attack that comes our way.

Again stating it’s galling to have the clubs reputation damaged is nothing to do with spineless. Of course we look more dishonest as most aren’t being called cheats outright. You’re clearly a warrior though mate who doesn’t care about that only cares about insulting a fellow city fan expressing how saddened he is by the treatment of the club.

Believe me Im more concerned about the treatment of our club than you are. Maybe I am a warrior, I don't know, but Id rather be a warrior than someone who throws the towel in way to early.

Manchester City believe that they will win their appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The club's Abu Dhabi owners – and Chinese and American partners – are refusing to rule out the prospect of taking their case to the civil courts. [@MullockSMirror]

Mate it doesn’t come across like that. It comes across as you are worried what fans of other clubs think.

It doesn’t matter. Footy has always been tribal let fans say what they want and just shrug it off.

How is the opinion I’ve expressed throwing in a towel? I’ll renew my season ticket no matter what. Will follow us whatever league/comp. still shite that the club we love, which has had in the last decade positive impacts on the sport and local community, is having its name sullied to a global audience and its integrity called into question.
