I am starting to think that the media have Chelsea and city mixed up. The former has been owned by Russia and has been found to be actually cooking the books and now more damming evidence of illegal payments to players.

Maybe it’s just anyone who plays in blue will do?

I think it’s more to do with what gets leaked. If the Cayman Islands ever tried to colonise Jamaica or had a huge data hack, then a fair few business malpractices would be found surrounding the rags and whichever other clubs are based there.

I await trial by media and the ferocious demand to take away titles.

Timing of this story breaking and Man City record revenue report is bit strange but could be coincidence not conspiracy theorist either. This story looks like it was brewing for a while now.

It’s like Roman Abromamich leaving doesn’t change things and the club is still under dark cloud.
 
Just scrap ffp and allow owners to invest in their business as they see fit and allow free trade.

There was no need for ffp for over a hundred years and theres no need for it now.

All this shit about who sponsors who, is it a fair deal etc. Football is becoming pathetic in how certain clubs are trying to control other clubs spending.

Wrexham are spending shed loads and not a word said, only just how good it is. Move up a few leagues and its seen as a bad thing. Its fucking pathetic let owners invest as they see fit into their company.

Remember when ‘we’ were saying “how are Chelsea getting such fees for their players?”
Well then..
Points deduction is it?
Where’s the talk of losing titles and being kicked to the bottom of the football pyramid?
I know how this game works now.
I don’t need to see any evidence.
They’re obviously guilty, no smoke without fire etc..
Throw the book at them.
Oh and what about City? ; )

This is just a few replies to Chelsea’s alleged wrongdoings.
I see hundreds like these every time a club gets charged.
We are now every clubs get out of jail free card.
Doesn’t matter what club or what they’ve done it’s “what about City?”
Whether we’re charged or not the smear campaign has worked 100%

What it might tell you is just how difficult it is to prove this kind of thing.

It took a leak of all City's emails, and even then all they needed was for everyone involved to say "no", and City won at CAS.

There wasn't much talk of this going on at Chelsea while Roman was there (despite his background and links to Russian gangster capitalism), and it took a change of ownership, and even then a leak of bank records unrelated to the club, for anything major to come out.

Is that how Chelsea's misdeeds came to the fore? I thought they'd held their hands up and did it themselves?

The first lot, but these more serious ones came through a leak from Cypriot banks - it's in the Guardian today.

My first impression is that these are genuinely off the book deals, going from Abramovitch to agents and intermediaries, so even the current owners wouldn't have known, as Chelsea's accounts wouldn't be involved.

It’s amazing how these haters have been wrong about everything. Pep’s going, the Sheik will get bored, you can’t build a team by buying players, the academy is no good, there’s nothing English about City, UEFA are about to clobber them, the Emptyhad, City in the champions league? you’re having a laugh etc etc etc.
None of these people have ever challenged their own prejudicial beliefs.

Cyprus would be the first port of call for dealings between Russia and a country that used to have the lowest Corporation Tax in Europe.

I think many businesses at the time tried to conduct their European deals via a little more than shell company in Cyprus.
Perhaps Russian tax offices were not as diligent as say other European countries.
