Hi, i keep seeing people who say that they have sources into the club saying that the club is very confident and calm and city know they will be cleared. Is that the real feeling or is it the club putting it out there that they are confident?

Actions speak louder than words. If it was purely bravado the north stand development would have been paused, we wouldn't have a £250m transfer kitty, we wouldn't be trying to tie down some of our superstars and manager to longer contracts, players like Haaland, Gvardiol etc wouldn't have come near us etc etc

That filthy twat is a classic example of a certain type of City fan. (Probably football fans in general).
He hates it that ‘his’ club has become successful and seems to harbour a genuine dislike of City, and a true chip on his shoulder that City are no longer “the cool little brother” that everyone admires you for supporting.

Basically, he’s a ****. And if he’s reading this…you’re a **** mate. Not one of those red scum would spit on you if you were on fire if they ever become successful again.
They are using you and your extreme Stockholm syndrome as a means of coping with our domination and you’re loving it.

Didn’t mention he’s a ****? The very very worst type of one as well.

Because a load of dippers,rags and Tarquins genuinely believe that 115 is going to bite us on the arse so bet on it.
Odds come right down as a result.

As a comparison. If we all bet on Darwin Balloones to be next season top scorer his odds would tumble. We all know that isn’t happening either.

Ps I wasn’t going to answer you because you asked for someone with a brain :-)

They won’t bet on it, I keep egging them on that if the so sure they must bet on it. I’ve said when can you get 25x in 2024 for a sure thing.

It can’t be a blue. How many are on this forum with the same views as this **** hating our owners , how many on here are on other forums where blues reside with the same views hating our owners? I’d guarantee it’s next to zero, what are the chances then of one just joining a rag forum to slag City off?

The conspiracy theory is the crazy bit, I hope?

You see it all the time on Twitter. Some arsehole posts something "based" on something and then everyone starts frothing at the mouth "if it's true". It's like there isn't the capacity for intelligent thought any more.

Now I think about it, though, the first 100 pages of this thread was full of "if this is true, we deserve to be relegated" posts. What was that about? It seems people rush to say anything at all these days without thinking first. Even City fans on a topic as serious as this one.

When I ran into Khaldoon in a bar in Boston he said: “Lump on us to get relegated, we are totally fucked by the PL’s smoking gun.” I asked what they had got, he said: “They can prove that I falsified all our accounts and that Mansour has paid for everything for the last 15 years. Now the Daily Fail is blackmailing me and I’ve nearly run out of money, so they will tell all next week.”

Naw, that was me pissed on a night out in Boston. I don't get into the city much any more. Anyway, I missed the Uber on the way home and fell into the Charles...;) It was nice meeting you all the same.

Was in Mary D’s having a pint at the weekend, Ricky Hatton was in there, I heard one of his hanger on mates say that the bar has been hired and booked out for November time for some 115 party,

He was most probably pissed up, have gotta say but Ricky comes across as a right see you next Tuesday, he is surrounded by idiots aswell,

He’s been sound any time I’ve ever seen him out and about

I do feel as an Arsenal supporter on here, you are genuinely trying your best to choose your wording carefully, but baring in mind our own particular bias/viewpoint, I do think you perhaps subliminally or unknown to yourself phrase things that can be seen as suggestive of guilt.

I would say, the PL getting this right, if their process is fair, shouldn’t exclude exoneration of City. The suggestion that if they don’t find us guilty, they have failed and they no longer have credible authority to govern the game, is a prejudice and a problem that the rest of the league have, or certainly influential members of the league and their support have.

Their processes are either fair or they’re not. Which is it.

I find the general implied presumption of guilt, well, understandable. What I find strange, is the lack of intelligence when trying to mask it.

For example, pretty much every pundit does it. When after clearly already having decided we are guilty and we are the ones stretching this out, they say something they think is 'nice'. Like, oh it is their fans I am thinking about here, they surely want this dealt with quickly. Or it is the players I feel for, they deserve this dealt with quickly to remove the 'cloud' (fuck off) over them.

That only works, if, you are starting from a position of presuming innocence. THEN, you can 'care' for the fans, or want players to have recognition. But if you are starting from a position of assuming guilt, which they continually show in no uncertain terms, then I'm sorry, this attempt to look considerate, is just dishonest posturing. And I actually hate it, more than when they imply guilt, because that I can almost forgive. Bias and stupidity, I can accept, the acting though, get fucked.

Neville does it often when he starts with 'I'm against ffp but, the rules need..' etc. That's like starting something racist with 'I have a black friend'.

And you are right, the post you reply does it too, attempts to 'mask' the bias which is evident elsewhere. Twats the lot of them.

Etihad IPO and expansion is bigger than anything to do with City.

I've seen a lot of posts from him on there - over several years.

He is either:

a) not a CITY fan at all, or

b) such a needy fucker that he/she goes to extreme lengths to be accepted / not banned.

I am thinking that it is b) - and that the guy/lass has no self-respect at all. He/she just seems to exult in the many posts from scum fans that mention him/her being "ok - for a blue" - seems to give him/her some sort of 'self-worth' - the needy fucker

My confidence isn't coming from much said on here, where there is a lot of echoed group bravado. Or anything said by anyone with sources at the club. Or even the actions of the club (going about their business) as someone else mentioned.

It is coming from - partly the club's one and only statement, which is unambiguous and we have seen before with the last time we were found innocent. It is coming partly from a basic ability to read and digest what is available in the public domain. It would take some stretch of logic to believe all those alleged breaches have been committed by an organisation this big and this well oiled (ha, pun). And lastly partly from an ability to ignore those in the media that are either less intelligent, and/or have a clear agenda. Even if that agenda is just their own financial gain through sustained interest, i.e milking it, and not 'deliberately' malicious towards the club.

I do think the PL must think they have something, to have gone this far. I do think there may be some things we don't know that are maybe open to a difference in interpretation, and varying outcomes. But I think the club would not have gone about their business with any intention to deceive, and will be able to prove their side of it. Given all the books and activity have been signed off by various significant bodies, I struggle to think what the PL might have found that nobody else so far has. Other than either misinterpreted accounts (which should be able to be explained) or perhaps those selective spliced hacked emails, which have already been dismissed by CAS and wouldn't really trump official records.
