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

[SWP's back]

Get the distinct impression that this thread has gone from ‘City are innocent and will blow UEFA away etc’ to ‘We are not so sure now and might accept a compromise’?

Massive Dave. How you doing pal?

Club e-mails hacked
Dippers hacking us/stealing our staff
Peps e-mails hacked

Anyone would think someone is on a mission..

 

[Centurions]

Surely the E-mails will be in the hands of the police as evidence in the trial of the hacker,not some magazine office.

Is it possible that UEFA don't have the original emails? Our 'lack of co-operation' is us saying prove it? Co-operating would give credence to these emails which we probably deny. After all, if they exist, are sitting on a server in a police station in Portugal and are unlikely to see the light of day?

Der Speilgel were given 2 hard drives plus an unknown number (presumably) after that, the police lifted 14 from his house when they raided it. I've not seen anything about DS giving up their drives to the police, let alone letting UEFA have a gander. The ones the police do have are encrypted by all accounts (or at least some of them).

So how would us cooperating have gone..

UEFA - “We hear there might be emails, which may or may not be genuine, which might, if read a certain way, suggest city have been topping up sponsorship deals. What have you got to say?”

City - “No idea what you’re talking about... can we go now?”

 

[Keith Moon]

I’ve said it before , look no further than down the east lancs road , our scouting network hacked,coincidence?

I think the answer lies here:

I think its probably more like "these emails suggest something untoward, can we have a look at all this extra financial data we've got no right to ask for to check you guys are legit?"

..."Nah you're alright".

so they made ex City staff now at Liverpool hack City’s scouting network?

 

[Centurions]

You’d know more than me but I assume this software can search for particular terms. Have Der Spiegel or others only searched terms like ‘Manchester City’, ‘Etihad’, ‘Dirty Arab Oil money’ etc....

Lol, don't know about that bud. I presume you can enter multiple search terms and it will trawl through everything finding links and showing forensic trails of email chains and documents. Some poor sap will still have to work through it and try and make sense of things.

No, that was amateur stuff, they did it because they could. Don't think it's related to the footyleak documents at all.

Yeah those are two totally different and in my view unrelated incidents
