It's all above Rob fucking Harris's pay grade quote frankly (you can tell by how he floundered when having to moderate the discussion "on the fly") but if the outcome is total vindication spun in the press as due to expensive lawyers, obstruction and complexity, I doubt the club would have an issue with that.

At this point, nobody’s changing their minds, even if City are found not guilty of the real charges (I don’t count the “obstruction” nonsense).

Those in Blue will shout “Vindication!”
Everyone else will shout “Cheats got off!” and have their reasons lined up in advance. “Fix was in, Brown envelope Brigade wins again, Govt couldn’t let City be guilty because of Abu Dhabi relationships and billions in foreign trade, etc, etc, etc…”

In the court of public opinion, which is tribal to say the least, the outcome only matters if they can point to a guilty verdict and claim vindication of their victimhood. Then, of course, comes the cry for removal of titles and their re-awarding to the Red Shirts, relegation and a €1Bn fine, etc, etc, etc…

The papers can’t wait. Opposition fans can’t wait. And, any guilty verdict will leave City fans forced into being attacked and on the defensive.

Much as with the CAS verdict, those who thought we were guilty and got off on technicalities will run rampant again and there’s little we can do about it.

Here’s hoping for a positive outcome for City, because anything else will make others insufferable.

That is one big pile of shit - GIPHY Clips
 
Alan Brazil was good on Talksport then, fatty Crook came on to talk about Tebas. Brazil said about him getting his own house in order, quoting Madrid being bailed out and even Parlour then mentioned the state of Barcelona. Even raggy Crook said people in glass houses, he said it was being report he is reporting City, and he corrected it saying it was reported in 2023 and City aren't concerned. Who'd have thought it, even Talksport failed to jump on that bandwagon.

Brazil was good when the Haaland extension broke too. Saying how good it is for the league etc.

City cant be “found guilty.” It is a civil case not a criminal trial. Not that SKY would understand.

I am currently in the midst of a large civil case against an organisation which I would rather not name. This has been ongoing for 2 and a half years. Next week we have both parties going to pre trial in front of a judge who I have no doubt will try to make us arbitrate. We have tried, they made a measly offer so we have elected for the civil case to be heard in front of a jury. If it goes ahead then the jury will decide.
Even though its a jury case in my litigation I think you are right, the jury will decide which side wins on balance of probability and evidence available.
(Well I think this is what will happen perhaps Slbsn could clarify)

We are the main news now because this is the worst premier league title race in years, there is nothing that will grab the attention of anybody, so City become the click bait to drag people in. Its February and the title is done and dusted. They have to find something to fill their sports sections before they all see their P45 looming.

They thought all they wanted was a year the Dippers dominate but it appears little Citeh & 115 is bigger….

Fucking massive !!

The new narrative being pushed by some media people, including Rob Harris, is that the PL can't prove their allegations because City have spent fortunes on lawyers, we have obstructed the investigation, and it is all too complex. If we win the honest coverage should say we were innocent and start asking questions about the motivation of the PL leadership. This will not happen in my view.

Because the PL can only afford some guy who's just set up his own practice with two rooms above a kebab shop.

What hopefully is boiling their piss is our rebuild notable our transfers so far and the anticipation of new full backs goalie not to mention Rodri and Bobb returning

Little Citeh nailed on champions next season so these no marks trying to destabilise the markets again

This.
As us blokes know we need a rest in-between ejaculations.
The media are taking a little break before their next erections over the dippers

So the jabba the hutt lookalike is a card carrying fascist ****, whodda thunk it??

Just out of interest, on most football stories I'm clicking on, there always seems to be some video of a fat fellow with a beard and glasses carrying on like like he's not in any way a weirdo broadcasting from his mum's basement? Seen him wearing a blades shirt. Looks like another grifter for cash.
