It's 9:15am on a Saturday morning and I've been glued to this thread for two hours already. I think that's my weekend sorted. This will be my last contribution for a while because I don't want to create more reading for people without anything important to say.

For what it's worth, I think little weight should be attached to Ian Cheeseman's tweet yesterday. That doesn't mean to say that he may not turn out to be right but he has subsequently become conspicuous by his absence since posting that tweet. We're all City fans, of course, but he is a borderline obsessive City fan. He even admits it himself. Ask yourself this - is it plausible for a mad keen City fan, with a relative fall from media grace, to try to seize the story about the best possible news we've had in a long time? I think so, and, in the absence of any other information, I'm discarding what he said.

Pep's apparently bullish press conference yesterday may be more indicative of a positive verdict. It is perfectly conceivable that he knew at that point and it would be surprisingly forthcoming for a man who does not know to say what he said less than 72 hours before the whole world knows.

Ian's absence is due to his elderly father taking a bad fall and being very poorly.
 
Won't get much of a Stadium for £100 million. Spurs Stadium was £850 million. The even applied for Furloughs for their staff, Liverpool did to but dropped that.
Think the Etihad was built for around 100m for the commonwealth games and City have spent nearly three times that amount on.it and the academy since then !!
 
This is exactly my worry. I can’t shake the feeling the club have put this out for damage control re Monday’s verdict.

If the club know we’re getting the ban overturned on Monday
It makes sense to put out there that sterling and KDB wanted to stay anyway
Siege mentality to stop the Miguel Delaney’s in their tracks
