PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Like a few on here, I stopped watching pressers, ‘pundits’, listening to the radio or any opinion pieces anywhere, be it print or media, years ago.

Was going into a meeting today and decided to catch a bit of the presser on City’s site. I’m glad I made that decision.

If he can come out swinging for the club dearest to my heart, I see no reason why I shouldn’t back the man through all highs and lows.

Thank you Mr Josep Guardiola!

Not always been his biggest fan, but fair play to Sam Allardyce for voicing some support for us this week. Makes a change to hear someone not just trotting out the type of uninformed shite that we've endured from the likes of Simon Jordan and Gabby Agbonlahor in the last few days:

“Football has always been unfair. The fact that if you have more fans, you have more money to spend, that’s what it was like when I played. The ones that had the most fans had the most money, and that’s how they grew.

This is the bit we've talked about before on the forum.

The first major tilt in the financial playing field was when clubs like united, Liverpool and Spurs forced the Football League to stop the sharing of ticket money with the visiting club, so they could keep it all for themselves. So when united fans say "We did it ourselves" when talking about how they became successful, this is actually how they did it.

You only need to look at the list of League Champions before 1982 and compare that to the list from 1982 onwards to see the difference that change made.

Pep - I want to stay more than ever

'I am not moving from this seat, I can assure you. I want to stay more than ever. After many, many years in the Premier League I do not want to move on.' Yes! Yes! You beautiful bald b@stard! I f*cking love you, and always will, like every Manchester City fan! :-)

You've rightly put your point across to others for a while now about not watching or opening threads from certain media outlets.
I can confirm i feel a new person for following your advice.
Sly sports is banned in our gaff now and all my need for sport and all things City is gathered from this site.
I just want to say thanks as that twisted knot i used to feel in my gut as gone and i can now use my teeth for chewing food instead of grinding them for hours on end.
 
From a mate (I am only a messenger!):

"Spoke with an MP mate who I won't say (there are some good ones BTW). The Dept of Culture, Media and Sport (think current sports minister is Lucy Fraser) are incandescent with the PL's antics and the push for the independent regulator is being accelerated. Furthermore there are lots of shit stick stories on the horizon about the PL, backhanders etc, going to come out in due course inc monopoly corruption in regards to tv revenues and access. Bottom line is they are supporters of City as a catalyst for change".

It's interesting from the point of view that independent regulation could come in before our hearing takes place. If that happens, our charges could well be reviewed and even dropped.

Anyone who still has Sky after this week needs to have a think. Hit them in their pockets.

I’ve had a fire stick for watching TV a while & had a sky package running in the background….cancelled it today and when asked the reason specially stated because Melissa Reddy is a professional scouse victim and Jaime Carragher spits at kids.

Very petty but it felt fucking good to be honest cutting ties with these fuckers

Grasping or not, that shit sticks. Thousands watch it. She, and as such Sky, have not only completely missed the gist of Pep's whole point (i.e innocent till proven guilty, hold off this judgement you have fantasised), but have actually twisted it to argue we weren't actually completely innocent in the uefa case, and therefore can't be now. So it does feed a very false narrative, that we got away with it. On top of that, they are stirring the pot some more by presuming what the other clubs will make of his comments, without anything to back it up.

Perhaps this will open the eyes of many Blues who still won't have it that there is an agenda against us?
Since Sky's formation and the beginnings of their hand-in-hand relationship with the Pisscan and his cohorts, they have made no attempt to hide their dislike of all things Man City. But so many people accused me of rampant paranoia I began to have doubts myself. But this whole business confirms my long-held suspicion that certain high-profile figures within the game DO have an agenda against us.

60 years for the rags to win 7 titles.
20 years from 1992 to win 13 titles.
That‘s 65% percent of their wins in 33% of the time.
Did something happen in 1992 which greatly benefited the rags??!?

About time all the corruption came out. This is one of the reasons i think the premier league havent thought it through. Hopefully the government step in and dismatal the cartel piece by piece because i will sit laughing at the downfall of those clubs.
