Wasn’t that subtle tbf!Ash clearly doesn't do subtle humour :-)
Whether we like it or not our fans threw objects, it doesn't matter why they did it. You cannot charge Zagreb for throwing things and ignore what our fans did, UEFA really would look stupid then. The sensible thing to do now is put nets up.
I was in 309 and there were city fans below, goading Zagreb fans and throwing stuff. Whether it was what the Zagreb fans threw in the first place is immaterialWhether we like it or not our fans threw objects, it doesn't matter why they did it.

Yep you cant blame Uefa for this one, just the english media for making out we were the instigators. Why risk getting banned by the club?

To be fair it wont seem funny when explained and as GDM is far too polite to reply I will. You replied to a post asking why City had been charged with ….
'Charged for retaliating and throwing stuff back at them'
GDM was making a point that it doesn't matter where the missiles came from 'we threw them end of'. do you get it now ?

After the way we behaved at Schalke, I don’t think we can be too sanctimonious about throwing objects into the opposing section.
However, whereas our behaviour in Gelsenkirchen was slightly out of character, you didn’t require an expert in the history of Balkan football conflict, to recognise that Dinamo Zagreb in Manchester had potential for violence.
On the same subject, I wonder if the GMP are aware of Atalanta’s relationship with Eintracht Frankfurt, and how much trouble was caused when they played at Everton a few seasons ago.

I wonder if Pep is starting to realise now why City fans are quite ambivalent towards the corrupt cup. His face when the dopey ref was booking him on Tuesday was a picture.
Its not just us that need to be seduced but him as well I suspect.
The Prem is where it is at, but I also know we have to win the bloody thing as well to silence the plastics in red.
