Our response will be through solicitors, and barristers, the best there are to defeat it, shouting about it achieves nothing. It has to be defeated in the hearing or court rooms. As it will.Well this conspiracy (and that what it is) to cause terminal reputational damage to the brand Manchester City FC and ADUG as party to it is like saying Mcdonalds use minced cat meat from Vietnam in their burgers. If unsubstantiated the accuser would be bankrupted. Our response if muted will be interpreted as guilt.
Good grief.
Yep, I know Paddy Power are unpopular but they at least try to be funny. There's nothing even remotely witty about that tweet, it just smacks of bitterness. Bet Victor are small-time anyway. I don't know anyone who has an account with them.We really are fucking loathed, aren’t we.
TrophiesBased on what criteria?
A couple of random thoughts.
UEFA /CAS - Our refusal to co-operate and holding back all our evidence, I know we said it was because of leaks. Wonder if really we were laying a big elephant trap for UEFA and were somewhat dissapointed when CAS said we don't want your evidence because we won't be looking at it due to time barring.
So have laid the same trap for the Premier league and kept our evidence back for the independant commitee to see and expose the P/L . After all if we'd given it all to UEFA/P/L we may have been found innocent but it would have been on the quiet.
As I say it's just random thoughts, but makes more sense to me than we were fraudulent for years and incompetant with it and think we can bluster our way out., that really makes no sense.
Good grief.
That's exactly the right description. And on the off-chance any Sunderland fans are reading this forum, most City fans don't have an axe to grind with you or your club.Typical red scouse "humour"

And it works because people keep posting the thing on here, whereas just ignoring will actually make it go awayBless them. Wanted a few likes so needed to mention little old city. Hope we are keeping note of these tossers who aren't hiding their bias.
Is behind a paywall mate, not sure how to. I saw it cos I’m signed up to the offer in their AppLink?
Yep, it’s a good article“Yes City broke the rules, but the rules protected the old elite”
@117 M34 mate this is the headline from Martin Samuel’s article on this, published on the website at 6.15pm tonight so likely in the print version of The Times in the morning. Just gonna read it now …
Subheadline:
“FFP has been perverted in order to shore up the dominance of Manchester United and Liverpool”
Who the fuck are BetVictor? Fucking wankers the lot of them.Bless them. Wanted a few likes so needed to mention little old city. Hope we are keeping note of these tossers who aren't hiding their bias.
Just as a polite way of jogging your memory, never forget that this whole charade was brought in to appease the disbanded G14 cartel.As a fan of another team, I find this very interesting. But what strikes me after reading a lot of this thread is that there's a lot of blame-game going on here. I've read a lot of blame towards other clubs, the FA and PL, but very few, if any, are talking about the real case and the substance in the accusations. If there's done something wrong, which the enquiry will find out, surely there has to be consequences?
