UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

[KinkyGeorgian]

The actual corruption is plainly stated in the final 2 paragraphs of the Times article, where Panja notes the PSG chairman is on the UEFA board, and his BEIN Sports is the biggest rights bidder for UEFA. Hence PSG (who had the same the "inflation of sponsorships" years back but at exorbitant rates that were absurdly out of line with the market) got various settlement slaps on the wrist but nothing approaching the threat of a ban. What with David Gill and Juve's owner Agnelli on the board, the alignment of embittered forces vs. some the most beautiful football ever played is just a sad state of affairs for the world game.

Court please.

This.

Everything out in public.

Good or bad.

Trouble is, all the players love it. Imagine a five year ban from the CL. Now imagine how many of the current team, who’d still be playing in 5 years, would still be here. The answer is none, I’m afraid.

Not a prayer it’d be a 5 year ban so pointless statement.

The day after beating “European Royalty” to the trophy they crave more than anything

Could they be more predictable !?!?

If we end up getting banned from the CL next year, it’s a stick on we will do 3 in a row.

Care to explain/elaborate on where you get this 5 year ban from?

We'll do 5.

Khaldoon will give Pep whatever he wants to have two winning squads. I look forward to Vinny leading the press vanguard in his new role as Club shitkicker.

Guess they are coming up with this at this particular moment to try to sabotage some of our transfer business.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Where’s PB?

He’ll have the inside on this article. ;-)

He mentioned leaving the forum a few weeks ago. It was over conflicting interests about City Matters and abuse he was getting off a couple of posters on here in that thread.

Not seen him since he started a thread about leaving the forum. The thread was removed pretty quickly though.

Nothing is going to happen. The last wo paragraphs say it all. If PSG get away with no fines and bans so will we.
