City fined £35,000 for anti-doping admin error

Anyone still saying there is no agenda is absolutely numb... our players have noticed it, our manager has noticed it... it's not just a matter of one decision here and there it's the fact that the FA and our disgrace of a sports news industry(where's the integrity?) in the UK are jumping on every little thing they can with glee to stick it to City. Maybe because they are shit scared of City succeeding and dominating because that means they'll be shown up and forced to eat their own words over and over? Why is the club so slow to react to everything press wise too?
 
This will be nothing other than a paperwork issue yet headlines, breaking news, anti doping etc will ensure that we are now labeled as drug cheats for the foreseeable future.

Got to love the FA lol.

Who works there again?
I remember the days when you were positive there was no agenda :P (though I could be getting confused with someone else!) Glad you're now onboard lol.
 
That was his point, his English is not up to it but he definitely indicated that this was happening to City a lot, that he couldn't understand how a team with so much possession was picking up so many cards, but no, the media didn't just gloss over it they didn't report it all! No Pep lost it because he's losing it! The premier league is the toughest in the world (repeat ad nauseam) and he's been found out...blah, blah...more on page 63.
You know what thou fumble that why winning things will make it all the sweeter I have never seen a club treated like ours it is disgraceful
 
Thank fuck we haven't thrown paper planes in the fa cup, or sang horrible stuff like you're not incredible, and how the fuck the fa have let us get away with goading racist **** fans by having black players in our side is beyond me - we get away with fucking all sorts
 
Very wrong from the FA to reveal no details of the charge. At 5.30pm as well so no chance of any context before tomorrow.

The ****s knew exactly what they were doing. It's a shot across our bows designed to embarrass us and give negative publicity. I'm just wondering at what stage Mansour decides he's had enough of being treated like a joey.

Confused mate because I've been a paid up member for years.

Every **** is out to get us it's as clear as day!
 
@StuBrennanMEN The FA have charged us for "paperwork" but couldn't find systematic child abuse by its coaches over a 30 year period ?
 
So a player insinuating a ref who may just have had a shit day was like a 12th man for the other team is out of order because it brings the game into disrepute by simply sharing his thoughts via a tweet?

Yet a smear campaign against a club is fine(shouldn't there be rules stopping David Gill and his merry men going to press willy nilly like that?) deliberately alluding to some form of cheating via doping with no evidence to back it up other than not following their protocol of sharing their whereabouts?
 
Swear I've just seen Guardiola's head fly past my window, he's gona be raging when he sees this.

Oh well, minor clerical error no doubt, let the media hype it up and get all the pub football fans on side. Lickle City ruining football since 2008.

As a club, I wouldn't give them the pleasure of an aggressive response or any legal action. I'd laugh it off, kill them with kindness and let the talking be done on the pitch. When we win a few titles, it'll hurt these media ****s and armchair fans even more, that way.
 
It's a nothing story. We'll get a minor fine and a slap on the wrist for a mundane clerical error.
 
To rub salt in the slur the BBC post an image of the old badge on the lead article on their football page. Lazy, shoddy and tacky journalism in all aspects. I resent paying my licence fee!

We've already had our punishment mate. A public shaming and a lingering suggestion of being dopers, the fine will be neither here nor there and the FA knows it.
