PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I watched a good part of that. Gave up as no disrespect to whoever the guy is fighting our corner from the pile on, I wish it had been somebody more articulate doing so.

What is pretty poor about this tv show though is, it's hosted by two of Sky's main commentators on our games. Their bias here, (not that it's ever really been in doubt) is clear to see. Anybody here, and I've seen many over recent years who claim Neville is a 'decent' pundit are simply blind.

Fcuk the pair of them.
It's impossible to argue a good case on such a complicated topic in that environment and the producers know that. They don't want intelligent debate, if they did they would have better informed peesenters and a less intimidating format, they just want sound bites. Jerry Springer? Exactly what they want. It's just Talkskyte. Avoid it.

The subject matter in relation to City isn’t that complicated, not at least in terms of the current status of the charges. Ask anyone to particularise the charges, and what we’ve specifically been accused of doing, and they cannot.

From that point it’s a fairly straightforward argument, even for a dilettante such as myself…
 
It would of been ace to have an 80k and to cover all price points for all fans mate . event revenue would of been sizeable too! Not sure if oakview would have been as interested in building the co op arena though.
They're specialist venture capitalists, so if a case can be made with a decent return on investment, I don't see why they wouldn't jump at the chance.

To me, the 80000 seater option always meant 40000 season card holders, with 40k seats for sale, & 25000 of those seats being affordable.
 
They don’t want to vote in a way that annoys the government while they’re pursuing funding for rebuilding the Swamp
....and they accuse us of "corruption". If we have to build their stadium for them, after decades of their boasting about how big they are and decades of mis management, it will be the most corrupt, unfair, unpopular and most disgraceful decision in sport and public funding.
Dodgy little self-servers like Coe should serve as a warning, not an aid to this sham idea.

Shouldn't be left up to City fans to defend the club in public.

The club just allows lie's to perpetuate for some reason.

The club need to reach out to be people like Neville behind the scenes to educate them on what the charges are, why our revenue is so high, etc.

Also, anyone expecting the club to retaliate or do any retribution after the decision has been made will be disappointed.
No offence mate, but why the fuck would City reach out to the likes of ratboy Neville? Imagine City reaching out to the likes of Nick Harris and Delaney, they’d twist City’s words in a blink of an eye. We can’t win, our reputation has took a battering and that has always been the aim. I believe Khaldoon and Mansour will have agreed to take the reputation damage on the chin and just let it resolve naturally. They will come out on top, that’s a given.

All this shit they come out with about them spending their money and organic growth. They’ve spent nearly the best part of two decades of living on extended bank loans and then the Glazers bringing in scruffy Jim to get further investment. Now they are trying to get the tax payer to foot the bill for their stadium, all the while they point the finger at Mansour for using his own money to build City into what they are today.
