Mad that people are trying to determine if this is good/bad news for us.
Sky Sports don’t have a clue. This email will be a standard procedure that most broadcasters participate in. There are legal ramifications to consider (if their pundits slander a company/club).
If Sky Sports had any inside information it would be headline news. Why would they leak it via The Daily Mail? :’)
This is a company telling its staff - let’s not get sued.
What’s strange about that was it was the hardly the worst comment we’ve faced in the last 2 years but very promptly seized upon.I think City probably warned Sky after that Tim Sherwood incident, and they don’t want to risk us taking legal action next time.
Maybe the straw that broke the camel’s back? Or maybe we felt more emboldened once the hearing was over?What’s strange about that was it was the hardly the worst comment we’ve faced in the last 2 years but very promptly seized upon.
I don't think you can charge a club with 115 offences and come out with statement.
It screams of incompetency from the board of the PL that they charged a club with that many offences yet couldn't strike one win. All while spending millions of the PL clubs money to do so and risk being sued at the end of it by City themselves for even more millions.
What's the saying, if you come for the king you better not miss?
I think they end up basically saying we couldn't get City to cooperate with he evidence so had deal with limited information available. That way, our non-cooperation throws doubt onto the fire that we are by proxy possibly guilty because we're not allowing the PL to have any access to our emails etc and other required info..
We win on a technicality.
I do think we are innocent by the way. I just think this is how it will play out because I don't for one minute think city will have given the PL anything.
Maybe the straw that broke the camel’s back? Or maybe we felt more emboldened once the hearing was over?
No it doesn't because Sky don't know the outcome any more than we do, they're just covering their backs in case of litigation if their pundits shoot their mouths off after the verdict.That sound like we have won some and we have lost some if that’s the ciase we are going to be guilty in everyone’s eyes. We need to be 100% cleared
I am more now, because after this tonight, it seems like one of the 3 possible outcomes (full non-guilty outcome for City) is now off the table. Maybe it never was on it, but I interpreted some of the positive mood music recently as meaning that might still be a possibility.
Will magic twat read the emails for himAs if Carragher reads emails
Bout 18k of them will be bots and in the social media world 20k is fuck all, city xtra have almost 100k and nobody gives a damn what they sayalmost 20k people he/she is a idiot but a lots if people listens so this matters
Fixed itAs if Carragher reads
SKY made fools of themselves last time saying the PL had won. Totally absurd PR spin.Pretty sure this is just a genuine cautionary email that Sky has taken upon themselves to send out to their staff to avoid being sued lol. Dont think it says anything other than that really.
i've always thought the no cooperation will be something city will be found guilty ofI am more now, because after this tonight, it seems like one of the 3 possible outcomes (full non-guilty outcome for City) is now off the table.

I’m gonna back out of the thread for the evening.Why is it off the table? Nobody knows anything yet. Sky - like any company would - are just instructing their staff on how to behave, in readiness for what everyone knows is an imminent result ( because history demonstrates that the presenters clearly do not have the intelligence to conduct themselves in an unbiased professional manner)
