Definitely Dickie Pound.
 
I have no idea I just don't have any confidence we will win this. There are too many big hitters against us and they have been relentless in trying to destroy us. Since it all started, from the first fine, the club has expressed confidence we have nothing to fear. The in the know people, the legal eagles with a fair bit of knowledge have said the same, but we got fined anyway. Cries of them moving the goalposts etcetera may have been correct but they still fined us and got away with it. Now this. Even if we are in the right, do you think we still won't get banned?

Who cares ? You ready to fight for your club ?
 
Get slated for this, but if a pinch was on offer should we not have took it.

We’d have been home free and could have concentrated on moving forward with next season.

Time will tell I suppose and maybe they just had enough of UEFA

Having seen what happened Friday, I consider the offer of a pinch a trap. We were right to refuse it.

We took one,we said no more and were adamant we were not guilty,we were never going to accept a guilty outcome,that would have crippled us
 
The danger is that the City Brand has been damaged massively and the achievements of the past decade are tarnished. The opportunity to compete for the hearts and minds in emerging soccer nations like China is endangered which is just what the Eufa cartel teams wanted all along.


Damaged with who though?

City fans seem quite pro club, doubt global fans care as much as the press do.

We were under investigation when silver lake decided to heavily invest in us, a possible ban was on the cards as several sponsorship deals have been signed with rumours of a new big deal shirt sponsor in the pipeline.

The chinese government own shares in us, I doubt we need to fear losing interest from there.

The only people who seem to have a negative slant on this situation are those already slagging us off.

The tainted trophy and asterisk angle is new, but all it is just more media bullshit.
