PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

We are already on a par with Barcelona as the greatest football team ever. Barcelona only got that title after they embarrassed utd in the 2011 Champions League final.
It was the only way utd and the media could handle It. If you get totally and utterly crushed saying that the team that did it to you were the best ever gives you an excuse for said embarrassment.
Now the rhetoric is that City are a good team but not as good as Pep's Barcelona because they already have that title. And obviously 115 gets mentioned at every possible opportunity.
Well according to Chelseas new manager they are the "greatest" team over the passed 10/12/15 years.
Fuck knows what he`s been drinking.
 
Met a group of Port Vale fans in the pub in town after a City match. Their game at Salford had been called off so they'd been on the piss all day. Sound set of fans. Reminded me of us way back when. Proper lesson to all these saddo's who support their team through the Internet and could only dream of being a real supporter.
It's great to socialise with proper fans.
A breath of fresh air.
 
And yet you’ll still find that not one of them can actually describe what any single one of the 115 actually is.

They will spout the absolute nonsense that they are about ‘double wages for all’, ‘cash payments’, ‘state supplied money’, ‘phantom sponsors’ etc etc… all the while rounding off with ‘its obvious that City cheated and are financially doping’

…despite the fact that the level of collusion to fuel their fantasy would be extremely improbable and unprecedented and the level of omertà (due to a complete lack of any compelling evidence coming to light) would be enough to cover every fantasy conspiracy theory of the last century.

Mind you, what hope was there of them understanding the 115, when they have no clue on the CAS rulings demolition of the UEFA charges… ‘city chose 2 out of 3’, ‘time barred’, ‘still fined, so you were guilty’, ‘city bought CAS’, ‘non cooperating shows you were guilty’… the list of bollox I’ve heard and read about the complete exhonorating of City by CAS.
They don’t want to understand, in fact they refuse to understand - most of ‘em are just trolling and the rest are fucking thick. People will believe any old shit if they’re desperate for it to be true. They’re not interested in facts or finding the truth…just want to feel better about being losers.

Absolutely, I reckon we could publish all our accounts on the inter web for all to see and they’d still say we were guilty. What the red tops and WhatsApp wankers set out to do they’ve achieved. We are forever guilty regardless of what happens.
 
One of my all-time favourite descriptive lines is from Tom Waits' song 'Diamonds On My Windshield'.. 'It's colder than a well digger's ass..'

You just matched (nay, surpassed, even?!) that!
Tom Waits has written some brilliant, surreal lyrics over the years "never trust a man in a blue trench coat - never drive a car when you're dead" is a personal favourite - and it's from Telephone call from ISTANBUL too !!
Tom Traubert's blues one of the greatest songs written IMO

Fuck em. A pure treble, record revenues and the best team, best manager and some of the biggest personalities in world football will just have to do :)
 
On the news the last few days there has been reports of .

Petrol stations profiteering government not happy.

Banks profiteering from interest rates, government not happy

FFP brought in keep the same clubs from profiteering.

Odd how the press/media will attack the banks and oil companies from profiteering but ignore football profiteering.
These stories were put out by politicians who are desperate to deflect attention away from their total incompetence. Not saying I agree with the banks and fuel companies but the reason petrol is so expensive is because we pay some of the highest taxes in the world on it so there is a broader context. Plenty of people in the media have attacked City for investing too much money.
 
Sponsors and commercial partners signing on the dotted line for shirt sleeve sponsorship and training kit sponsorship. You wouldn’t put your brand at risk if you knew you were going to be associated with a club that’s about to be sent to division ten and the directors called frauds. They must be getting some assurances from the club about what the mood music is around the charges.
