PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Blue warrior]

This hopefully galvanises the whole club, as a fan it feels a personal attack on me Siege mentality let’s stick together like in the dark days c’mon city!!

Are you watching Macclesfield.

If we did get relegated then at least tickets would be cheaper. and the atmosphere would improve a lot as well. but hope we fight the case and win

The opposite would probably apply I’m afraid given our incredibly loyal fan base mate

 

[Taylor]

Love the statement from the club.

 

[Kazzydeyna]

“Once and for all”

My faith in the people running our club has NEVER waivered. Not once. Ever.
I’ve been pissed off plenty after some matches as football and its aftermath is an emotional game but my faith in our executives has never waivered. And it still hasn’t.
I am confident we will prevail here again.
Bit the key line in the statement HAS to be “once and for all”

This must be the very last time we take this sort of shit without punching back with everything in our arsenal or today, just like Valentine’s Day the other year, will simply be another day when the club allows itself to be smeared and slandered without evidence.
WHEN we win this one, our response has to be utterly ruthless and fully litigious and the FA need to be made fully aware that there are repercussions to lying about City.

We will prevail as we have right on our side.

Some of the charges relate to non-compliance with UEFA's ffp investigation.

Yes, but that’s just a filler and we can plead autrefois acquit. I know this is not a criminal charge in a court, but the principle is that we have been cleared of this by another body so it is unfair to try again.

 

[GRB]

The daily fail have about 9 articles about a us being relegated… want a shower of C*nts.

 

[BoyBlue_1985]

Where’s our 1990s/early00s spirit gone? We used to have thick skin and could take anything. Our attendances went up when we got relegated, while our neighbours won the lot.

We didn’t fuck it off then and it should bring us together now.

Got to remember mate the old lot are still around but we have attracted new supporters that only know success. I live in Kent and so many young kids these days are wearing City tops. To be honest I struggle with losses these days and we were shit when I started supporting City

Centurions, Formidables, Inevitables, then "Irrefutables"

 

[sd33]

Premier League wanting to show they are doing something...

 

[BufordUSABlue]

So there are 100 charges. Are you telling me that ALL other PL clubs are squeaky clean in relation to all 100? I think not. Surely City’s lawyers can ask for evidence from the PL that other clubs have also been investigated in relation to the same rules.

This !!

 

[Asa's left peg]

Hope this doesn't stop the club from paying for my season ticket, that we are all on. You all got the email, right?

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Not a chance.

End of Sheikh Mansour hahahahaha, this site today is hilarious.

 

[Bald fraud]

Going to be very interesting. I tell you what though if the PL lose these cases, they are finished as an organisation. High stake for both us and them.

They won’t lose they have a cartel of American clubs behind them

 

[argyle]

30 of the charges are to do with non-compliance with the PL investigation.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

So, European super league anyone?

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

Manchester City FC is surprised by the issuing of these alleged breaches of the Premier League Rules, particularly given the extensive engagement and vast amount of detailed materials that the EPL has been provided with.
The Club welcomes the review of this matter by an independent Commission, to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence that exists in support of its position.
As such we look forward to this matter being put to rest once and for all.

That's a weak statement that suggests we have been caught on the back foot. What usually happens in these sort of disputes is that both sides' lawyers agree to be open and transparent with each other. I find it hard to believe that City didn't have an inkling of this move in advance. The body language of Pep and the players in recent weeks gives a clue surely. If we really are "surprised" then we have been ambushed by the PL.

 

[tweety]

Only 2 would be relegated from the PL plus us, but this is going to take a long time to resolve and I don't see it being this season.

This will rumble on for years, that's what they want, more negativity towards our club.

 

[argyle]

End of Sheikh Mansour hahahahaha, this site today is hilarious.

Honestly, if they aren't teenagers they should be embarrassed with some of the stuff written.

 

[bondsman]

Fuck it let’s go and win 3 trophies on the back of this bullshit!
