Nah! That's not 'Der Fuhrer'.. it's Jonathan Pie.. he does a good impression of 'Mr Hilter' as part of his stage show.. finishes with a rocking version of 'Deutschland Uber Alles', really has 'em dancing in the aisles..

Meanwhile, back on topic: 'f**k the PL and the Red Cartel..'

I get the impression the PL just want all this financial nonsense done and dusted without much more fuss before the new rules come in.

They have been hopelessly ineffective at applying the rules in the last couple of years - weird three party transfers a couple of years ago just waved through, opaquely no charges for FFP breaches last year, no bad faith charges for Chelsea's asset sales and so on.

Yes, the Chelsea off-the-books payments should be a sporting sanction, but I wouldn't be surprised at some financial sanction fiddle on Chelsea between the FA and the PL - precedent set by FA, also applied to any of the less serious 115 allegations they can, by hook or by crook, prove. "What can we do?", the PL could say, "the FA set the precedent with Chelsea."

All sorted. Start next year with a clean slate and with Chelsea and City both out of the way.

I'm a cynic, me. Especially when it comes to football governance.

I recently was doing some research into EU trade fines of American companies and how it may hurt the bottom line on income sheets & stock prices..

What I learned what quite enlightening that the EU basically looks for any excuse to charge anyone and everyone outside of the EU for alleged violations.

Then I saw an infographic yesterday which showed the EU brought in more revenue from fining US companies last year than it made in taxing European companies which is pretty funny if true.

That's basically how they extort money and it's such a huge thing that the EU economy is totally dependent on fines.. not on labor, not on manufacturing, not on exports.

There was this bit of news that got me researching:

This has basically been copied by the EPL where the goal isn't to destroy City per say (as the red cartel would like and are honestly aiming for) but to infact extort as much money in fines as much as possible every now and again and make the foreigners think it's just a cost of doing business.

That's why I'm starting to think.. I don't think they'll let City off totally free, and I don't think this is over..

They'll just try and extort the "brown" owners more than the other ones.

And they'll try again and again and again.. basically throw shit at the wall and see what sticks.

You're not far wrong. Have you seen the ticket prices for the World Cup?

World Cup ticket prices: Fifa's prices a 'monumental betrayal' says Football Supporters Europe

Fans' group Football Supporters Europe says it is "astonished" by Fifa's "extortionate" pricing strategy for World Cup tickets.

Also, expect massive fines from the FA against Chelsea for their fraudulent past behaviour, rather than a combination of a lower fine and sporting sanction. It's all about money.
