Good point. Thinking about it has been done with Mullock before.

THe resulting article by Bates is fair as well ie reporting accurately what Pep said:

Pep Guardiola admits making Man City quit threat in tense meeting with bosses

Pep Guardiola has consistently defended Manchester City over accusations that the club broke Financial Fair Play rules, which saw UEFA fine the club £24.9million - only for their ruling to be overruled by the Court of Arbitration for Sport

The Mirror article is still wrong. The consultancy fee to Mancini was with CFG not MCFC. It pre-dated FFP rules. Perhaps it was a retainer for Bobby Manc but it did not break any rules. It is standard business practice.
 
They aren’t going to stop until they finally nail is for something are they? And with haaland coming they know we’ll be unstoppable. With the scousers dropping points last night I knew we’d have this shit this morning!

By now its clear its just a smear campaign.

If we'd actually done something 'properly' bad it'd be out in the open after X amount of investigations.

The only way we'd 'be guilty' would be another retrospective rule change and there's no bottle to do this as we'd be in court wiping the floor with them, no more pinches.

The story is bollocks. Appointing subject matter experts is nothing to do with charges. It is routine in any complex case.
Draper’s story is false. UEFA did NOT accuse City of having inflated sponsorships. The value was never an issue. Der Spiegl alleged some of the sponsor money came direct from ADUG instead of indirectly via Etihad. Draper is a moron.

One things for sure if we win the league it will be talked about as a season where we blew semis and qtrs too.

If the scousers only win the league cup as is posssible it won't be classed as a colapse or failure, but a success of reaching finals

Draper really is a clown. Appointing subject matter experts can happen at any stage of a legal process, often at the start when parties are assessing if they even have a case. Draper talks about "charges" as if this is a criminal prosecution. It is a potential civil dispute between the PL and MCFC about alleged breaches of rules. This so-called investigation by the PL started four years ago and relates to issues dating back to 2011/12 which have already been settled. Just think about that for a moment. How likely is this to go anywhere? It seems obvious to me that the PL took this issue on because of pressure from other clubs led by MUFC and LFC and have got nowhere to go with it because City have done nothing wrong and there is no evidence. The PL has repeated the same mistake UEFA made in bowing to internal politics. Richard Masters (PL CEO) has his reputation on the line because of this and needs a face-saving way out.
