He's an arrogant man who loves the sound of own voice who.in reality nearly bankrupted his club, Crystal Palace.

He works for a radio staion that's equivalent to the Sunday Sport... and so anything he spouts should be put into that context....''Half man half monkey found playing tennis on the moon" sort of stuff

I love the "...some waffle about the need for confidentiality..." bit.

It's only part of the PL rules after all.

That's the irony isnt it, they all want us to be found guilty because they believe we have broken the rules but would be more than happy for the PL to break their own rules just to satisfy their own curiosity.

 

[Spili's City]

Well there's basically two charges.

1) We inflated sponsorships to artificially increase our revenue.
2) We paid Mancini and players without fully reporting it.

We know (1) is a pile of shite and has already been demolished by CAS but we pretty definitely did what's alleged in (2).

Now that might have been perfectly legal but they could still potentially decide we did it in ba faith to avoid reporting it in our accounts.

PB
Should they decide that those payments to Mancini etc were in “bad faith” do you think they could impose heavy penalties for that alone ? eg points deduction
I know you’ve mentioned it previously that the amounts in question paid to Mancini were peanuts in the grand scheme of things, but my fear is that this is the opening they will use to shaft us.

REMEMBER BLUES: This is what the LEGACY CLUBS wanted and still want!

Self titled legacy and 'istry clubs. What makes these fans think they are more legitimate football clubs then say Preston or Barnsley..the arrogance of these fans is unbelievable!

Chelsea received an £8m fine from UEFA for similar stuff but on a much larger scale not just involving players/managers but third parties as well.

So if the PL hammer us for the Mancini stuff they'll be next.

Probably been suggested before, but here goes......

American owners get fed up with no longer having guaranteed cl money and/or no guaranteed trophy success allowing them to stay in front AND cream their annual dividends off their red shirted clubs.

Decide that damaging Citys reputation and making us public enemy no 1 along with using their influence on uefa to ban us is the way to go. That fails with our clearance at cas, and suspiciously nobody in the media has the balls to revisit the circumstances of the attempted ban and those behind it.

We still win on the pitch and are now the best run club in the world, but are still the ruiners of football according to the media controlled by the red tops.

American owners try for a superleague to regain their superiority, and that fails.

They try to sell their clubs as they cant now have their cake and eat it.

As a last resort they collude to bring in a lapdog to head the pl investigation based on already dealt with issues but announce dramatically "115 charges" and employ their media shills to go to town on our guilt to further tarnish our clubs reputation.

Meanwhile, and as is now becoming more apparent, they dont have much chance of making the fraud accusations stick, but by their actions they have already made us guilty by the court of public opinion.

Thus when we are cleared of these "charges" it will open up another shot at a superleague, but this time on the back of our getting away with "cheating" and the plk not strong enough etc. So potentially a lot more public blessing than the last attempt because of our "getting away with it".

Could end up a lose/lose for us depending on verdict and ensuing fallout and how much of the above is true.

However, the above is from the red clubs perspective and I have the utmost faith in our owners and staff to sort the best possible outcome.

I am probably just paranoid based on typical City and reading this thread too much and not trusting our enemies one inch.

Either way we are literally the best team ever and thats not an exaggeration and they dont like it.

Its amazing that the press/media stick with what the yanks are trying to do to our game. Even they attempt to get the ESL up and running the press/media still blindly support them.

Fantastic job! I think some people misunderstood you completely. What you were trying to explain was the “ threat” that comes with theses changes and the end result.
If only you had more time to explain and not get interrupted by a white turtle neck with massive windshield glass . Credit to you for being calm and composed coz that glass was giving me anxiety and would’ve sprayed bear spray through my web cam in self defense.

In reality. If we to ge relegated to whatever division im sure it would galvanise our support even further.. we would have 40,000 plus for home games in the northern counties league or wherever da'pool deem us to play!!.. i hope they do in some way and dominate the league until our pheonix rising (get that badge back lol) then every fan of football could really see what this is about

Fixed that.

 

[Chris in London]

I knew there had been severe punishments for Enron but just googled it and Jeffrey Skilling was sentenced to an initial 24 years custodial sentence in 2006 and was released in 2019.

If Jordan wants to accuse the Executives involved in our situation he needs to be very careful because he could be in deep shit coming out with false statements, I’m no expert but to take the stance he has surely has to put him at risk of at least a Civil action of defamation. I’d piss myself if he was ordered to cough up his last few million, wanker.

Gives a whole new meaning to upskilling while in prison

 

[johnevans]

Let’s just say hypothetically that Mansour & Khaldoon wanted to disguise owner investment for a min. You would think that to carry out such a criminal act, both men would keep it in house. By that I mean, not erm tell anyone. Including Soriano, Pearce etc. Instead, apparently everyone knew and not 1 of those people has come forward to expose the crime of the century.

It’s just bugs me as to why the top man would share his criminal plan to anyone?

Indeed..

As every Blue knows, our 'Top Banana' only ever shares his wicked, dastardly plans for taking over the universe with the white cat that that sits on his lap as he directs his evil enterprises from his secret, subterranean lair.. I'm surprised the footy media hasn't cottoned on to this fact after all these years..(!!)

[SilverFox2]

I think, true to form, we will just let them stew. Our silence will be devastating.

Yes, at the same time as concentrating on stealing a bigger slice of their financial "entitlements" whilst they share in the reflective glory the biased media portrays.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Did we? So we’re in the shit then?

Sorry. Having re-read it, it sounds like we deliberately didn't report payments we know we should have reported. We've no idea whether that's the case at all.

 

[wattle]

After watching the video yesterday of stefan with the gobshite I've come to the conclusion that Jordan is on the spectrum. His behaviour and inability to stop himself from cutting in when people are speaking is rude and probably out of his control.

Narcissism isn’t on the spectrum mate.

 

[jrb]

Never forget.

You can add Levy, Ric Parry, etc (Harris &Co) to that picture as well.

We won’t get relegated, hypothetically if it did happen this club has a lot more capable people running it than when we’ve faced adversity in the past. Could you imagine the piss boiling if we were in the 4th tier receiving what we do from Etihad and the other related UAE sponsors. We’d piss the football league in no time.
