You think City will just settle for winning this? After UEFA have dragged the club through the mud damaging the brand? First crack in the armour us winning this with more to follow.

Yes, think they will settle, not sure they want to see ffp dismantled.

Maybe it was only the public announcement that was pushed back to Monday, not the verdict.

This is how I see it, no way is it being announced @09-30 Monday morning without us already knowing. I believe we already know. I'm KFA though.

If we win the appeal, I hope we've got koulibaly in a city shirt outside the etihad reading out our press release

I can't understand the focus on what opposition fans & the media say about us tbh.

For most of my almost 60 years of match going opposition fans generally either couldn't give a rats arse about us, said we were their second team or took the piss (Rags). That was because for the most part we were SHITE. We were ignored by the media for the same reason.

I love their salty tears now as we are up there WINNING things and they don't like it.

Let the salty tears flow like a torrent for many years to come.

I think this would be an accurate analysis absent the new found power and influence of social media presence and credibility (as oxymoronic as that last phrase is).

The “I was given incorrect information”, even if true, just does not have the weight or associated understanding it once did. Even Sam Lee, much more prominent generally (on social media and otherwise) than Cheeseman, to some extent is still trying to move past getting the original UEFA ruling so wrong.

I am among those that think Social Media has been one of the death nails of real journalism, but I will not argue against it’s unfortunately crushing relevance now for anyone that wants to have any sort of successful presence/career in media.

I think Cheesy, who is in the twilight of his career but does still need income, is risking quite a bit more than some people think. But, as we have said before, he may have genuine high-confidence information or he just felt the gambit was well worth it.

I agree with the click bait killing real journalism; sadly. However I stand by the opinion that it’s a calculated gamble for him

As for cheese man - I’ve taken bigger professional gambles than 50/50 before most won, some lost.

I can see someone with not much to lose (with the caveat that the source was wrong) taking the gamble - if he’s right then he is strong and back in the game reporting.

If he is wrong - he was given incorrect I formation.

Not much of a gamble if you ask me.

it’s a gamble when you stand in the away end with 3000 people you have pissed off, if it was a punt!
