Imagine what would happen if we did that to them! Media outrage and we would have Dam sure been punished more than a one million pound fine! We should have taken them to the cleaners over that absolutely fuckin unbelievable how it was all swept under the rugThe dippers paid City employees to send confidential info, nothing to do with scouting hack. The guilty parties were found out and sacked. That’s all I know.
Someone should make an anonymous documentary about it and the wider red top involvement in everything that has happened.Imagine what would happen if we did that to them! Media outrage and we would have Dam sure been punished more than a one million pound fine! We should have taken them to the cleaners over that absolutely fuckin unbelievable how it was all swept under the rug
but give them enough rope and keep frustrating by staying silent and winning they'll hang themselves sooner or laterI think the disappointment most people feel is that, this is the correct way to deal with something that is going through the courts. There would be a media embargo as well, but here we have a situation where the media seem to be fed by the same people who are pushing our charges and they seem to be allowed say what they want with impunity.
I am as certain as anyone on here that we are innocent, but I’m not as confident as some that, that is how we will be judged.
I don’t trust the PL and their process, whereby there is no independent body to appeal to, like CAS.
They seem to have all bases covered.
Ha ha love it. I would love City to start selling 115 crimes lol. I would buy a pallet full. I loves me wine I doTwo clued up raggies in the local off licence explaining to the owner that they loved a drop of red wine, especially Australian. They'd enjoyed a bottle of "19 Crimes" very much, but a friend had told them that "115 Charges! was nicer. Could they buy a bottle?

We must be taters deep in corruption to pull the wool over the eyes of the PL,CL, TV revenue , Etihad, Puma,Nexen,Nissan, to bullshit what equates to 80% of the company’s revenue, but United having sponsors pull out through lack of return , or having a noodle sponsor no fucker has ever heard of outside of Korea is fair game? The fact the cunts think they get 100% of the money through shirt sales around the world , that’s how fucking stupid United fans and their arselickers really are, it’s all about revenue , they just can’t see it.I am genuinely not even bothered about it anymore. Nothing will come of it no matter how many perceived scandals will rear its head. The media are like a dog with a bone trying to keep up with social media. It’s all a financial game with a strategy to feed into the bad foreigner narrative they love to use when they have fucked up again.
Banks collapse - blame migrants
Brexit - blame migrants
Housing crises - blame migrants
Morgage price hike- blame migrants
Mcfc winning - blame migrants
it’s all nonsense in a way.
This season could be better we really are that good.We owe Pep so much , he’s elevated this club to dominance, I was happy enough after the Mancini and Pellegrini titles and thought then this is as good as it gets , this fella has torn the rule book up - it’s this manager who has turned us into what we are , the worlds best , playing breathtaking innovative football , I constantly get reminded of the football we have seen this year on social media channels , you’ve all probably seen it countless times - absolutely fucking stunning football , it’s going to be one hell of a come down when he leaves - but this guy has a legacy , that in my opinion will never ever be seen again in this country. He’s Cruyff on steroids , a visionary, total fucking football.
Apologies for the rant , but all of you , you tube or whatever media you watch , just watch the big performances this season - United x2 , Arsenal , Bayern , Madrid and of course Milan , I’ve never ever blown our trumpet outwardly before this season , but this season we have arrived , really arrived , the centurions was special , as was the the domestic treble , but this season will never ever be beaten in this clubs future history , and I’ve seen it in the flesh!
When you take stock of this season gone , lost for words , to see the emotions from Pep and the players as they made history. OMFG , what a fucking football club we are.
Agree with all that though I think it’s in the wrong thread.We owe Pep so much , he’s elevated this club to dominance, I was happy enough after the Mancini and Pellegrini titles and thought then this is as good as it gets , this fella has torn the rule book up - it’s this manager who has turned us into what we are , the worlds best , playing breathtaking innovative football , I constantly get reminded of the football we have seen this year on social media channels , you’ve all probably seen it countless times - absolutely fucking stunning football , it’s going to be one hell of a come down when he leaves - but this guy has a legacy , that in my opinion will never ever be seen again in this country.

With regards the CAS Chairperson. City put a name forward. Uefa could have put another name forward. As far as I know, Uefa did not recommend anyone and did not object to the name City provided. Why they chose not to object to the name given by City is probably because they had no objections. The problem is facts always spoil a good story. This is why this detail rarely gets mentioned on the media.After an hour of the usual suspects wittering on about emails the conclusion is football needs an Independent body. They don’t mention that only one club voted in favour of that Manchester City.
I have to admit it was slickly done though. Some money behind that.
Its also news to me that City chose the Chairman of the CAS panel. I’m pretty sure that was a neutral decision.
The funniest bit is when they show 12 vs 6 lawyers like that matters or it was a physical fight…..City won because they had more lawyers!
I just don’t think we even did that. I don’t think we chose him at all? @projectriverWith regards the CAS Chairperson. City put a name forward. Uefa could have put another name forward.

It will be a sad day when pep leaves. The credibility he gave us as a whole organisation is priceless. Him among others established a titan of a football club. Not only did we arrive but we blew the fucking doors wide open and pissed on the cartels rug.We owe Pep so much , he’s elevated this club to dominance, I was happy enough after the Mancini and Pellegrini titles and thought then this is as good as it gets , this fella has torn the rule book up - it’s this manager who has turned us into what we are , the worlds best , playing breathtaking innovative football , I constantly get reminded of the football we have seen this year on social media channels , you’ve all probably seen it countless times - absolutely fucking stunning football , it’s going to be one hell of a come down when he leaves - but this guy has a legacy , that in my opinion will never ever be seen again in this country.

Fingers crossed , but I agree , Pep evolves the team , he knows how to refresh , I see hunger in the squad , we ain’t done yet , tbh , I’d settle for back to back CL wins , we know how to do it now , and there will be nothing more special to do it in this country at Wembley next May.This season could be better we really are that good.
I just don’t think we even did that. I don’t think we chose him at all? @projectriver
Maybe. It certainly wasn’t just our choice.I thought there was a shortlist of people possible.
I thought City suggested using one who was familiar with the case from an earlier CAS hearing (maybe the familiarity was hoped to speed things along), and UEFA weren't against having that person, so it was an agreement from both sides.
This is exactly where I amI think the disappointment most people feel is that, this is the correct way to deal with something that is going through the courts. There would be a media embargo as well, but here we have a situation where the media seem to be fed by the same people who are pushing our charges and they seem to be allowed say what they want with impunity.

Tend to agree , how many times have we seen Pep in tears in our biggest triumphs? Never ever saw him like that at Barca , I think he gets us , the club , the staff from the very top to the bottom , openly hugging the physio staff , the kit lads and the ancillary staff behind the scenes , he will find it very hard to let go of the perfect footballing family so to speak - and this season especially, more so since his infamous press conference when he called them out , it’s transferred to the stands , and it’s been noticeable in the atmosphere’s at home , the place is rocking, some big big atmosphere’s that definitely for one scared the shit out of Madrid , it’s the perfect combination, let’s hope he extends after two more seasons.It will be a sad day when pep leaves. The credibility he gave us as a whole organisation is priceless. Him among others established a titan of a football club. Not only did we arrive but we blew the fucking doors wide open and pissed on the cartels rug.
My only hope is that he will leave us well equipped for the future. His legacy safe and his training methods continued. Hopefully we have 10 seasons or more to draw from and the experiences will help us deal with any situation football throws up.
After Khaldoon, Pep is the most important figure. He will not walk away lightly. History and legacy will continue to drive him. I know Barca is his boyhood club but city has been built in his image, his football brain imprinted on every decision. He will find it very hard to walk away from.
Maybe. It certainly wasn’t just our choice.
The fact that CAS’s neutrality is being called into question on that YouTube documentary is ridiculous.
