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

What an absolutely disgraceful headline from the Daily Mail.

And you wonder why other fans latch on to headlines like this and hate City. Mainly United, Liverpool and Arsenal fans.

Manchester City 'to escape ban from Champions League' as UEFA prepare to admit defeat on FFP despite club's big spending and leaked emails

• There had been a belief within football that Manchester City would be banned
• But reports suggest that the Etihad Stadium side will instead receive a fine
• It will come as a blow to the strength of UEFA's current Financial Fair Play system

Has anyone checked on Miguel, Ewan or Wee Dunc? Might be advisable to lock the cutlery drawers in the Castles, Delaney and McKenna residences this evening. We don't want them doing anything silly.


Do we?

Are these (CAS/UEFA) connected though. Formally not. In practise?

So the CAS case was challenging the UEFA verdict of guilty that they had to make before punishing us.

If they are punishing us (with a fine) then that obstacle has been cleared.

If true then it smacks of UEFA backtracking because they realised they’d fucked up when not following their own process, along with deciding we were guilty even though the club say they provided irrefutable evidence of our innocence and they know that if it goes to CAS it will be thrown out. However, a total climbdown and admission that the allegations were bollocks would be an embarrassment for UEFA so they have to come up with some kind of punishment to make it look like we were guilty of something.

If we are indeed as innocent as the club claim then we shouldn’t accept anything in the way of a punishment but we’ll have to see what actually happens first.

On the plus side, we can keep on booing UEFA, if they fine us?

Another misleading headline, this time from the Daily Express.

So both papers that routinely attack City, are at it again.

Man City to learn Champions League fate as UEFA decide punishment over FFP allegations
Manchester City are being investigated by UEFA’s Club Financial Control Board over allegations of Financial Fair Play breaches.

PL refs screw us over but we have UEFA and FIFA on strings. FA and PL next :)

Fair to say it has been a mixed week.
