PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

TShed said:
On the face of it we’ve allowed ourselves to be compromised again. We correctly challenged something which was founded to be illegal

The challenge clearly costs us millions exactly how many is not reported we also were directly victimised and lost revenues due to having to put off our agreed sponsorship deals

Then we get this appalling short announcement and learn a few hours later we are going to “ask” ffs the PL to consider a new Etihad sponsorship deal, which the BBC emphasised will require due diligence and we are not owed any favours ffs

I still want to believe we are calling all the shots behind the scenes and especially in the preparation of a face saving outcome for the PL on the 115 charges which strangely is now being called the “over 100” charges by most media outlets tonight

Mate, if the BBC told me in was Monday I’d be 100% convinced it was Thursday.

Biggest propaganda outlet in the country.

Far from it but here lies our problem we’ve allowed a feeding frenzy by our outward non responsive passive (I’d call it dignified) behaviour. In fact the BBC are just sly snidey no marks in the grand design of the media coverage

Clearly the owners don't think it's a problem. They continue creating value and don't care what anybody else has to say.

I do get your point, but if they don't care about it I gave up caring long ago.

Pretty clear from the wording of Lewis’ daughter on the matter. The word termination was also used.

Would it surprise anyone that on the emails City requested as part of 115 there is an email from Levy saying something along the lines of, and I paraphrase, ‘cheating Arab c#nts’. Rascist overtones not fit with PL kick it out. Or am I wide of the mark?

As stated earlier im fed up of City fighting everyones causes.
Everton
Forest
Villa
etc grow a pair and get your own owners to put there hands in there pockets not City's and fight your own battles.
Fed up with it only being us that take the poor publicity win or lose.
looking fwd to a season where we talk about football and not the courtd im sure the owners are aswell.

I agree but this is alien to my thinking so far they allowed
UEFA to get as far as banning us from Europe ok it got overturned but we still got all the shite
Previously took fines off UEFA
Rolled over on the Scouse hacking scandal
Sat back and let EPL cartel build up to the 115 god knows where that will end
Clearly compromised on this scandal even though it’s cost millions to pursue and delayed the Etihad sponsorship
Was apparently talked into joining our accusers in that super league fiasco
Allow the club to be slandered and victims off blatant racist abuse even offering hospitality to said perpetrators

I sit hoping for the advent of The Night of the Long Knives

Cry Havoc ……. Would be my approach …and let slip the dogs of war

I think from what happened yesterday we're sadly not going to go ballistic on anyone certainly not on the Prem.

We may end up 'snitching' to them about other clubs but, even that's doubtful as £££'s is £££'s.

It’s frustrating but I think you see us break bread with the organisation whilst the corrupt personnel get binned. The problem is they turn up in another exec position, when it should be a stay in the big house.

i know thats banter. but genuinely i think its luck. for some the club you support is a family curse/blessing, for me i had no family to help so made a choice aged around 5 in around 1970. Can't be sure exactly how old i was when i chose. and i veered between city and united before deciding on city. possibly because a little friend was city too.

ps i had family but they were into jazz not football.

Part of the next Fukin “settlement” has to include a strong city presence in the Exec of the EPL and also ensure we drag Newcastle Villa and Everton along the only way to change anything is by devide and conquer

Once this Cartel grip on the EPl and Sky is disfranchised then we can move forward

Not when the Dollar is at risk they have no affinity with our sport it’s pure business we are a vehicle to wash their billions the Glazers perfected the model

My view is the protracted time in getting results announced will be nothing to do with City and the charges this was just a tactic to deflect an alien investor not welcomed by the Americans

In my opinion

The delays will be all about and your right the Americans sticking together now calling on how a very complicated and probably barely legal maize of portfolios of investments are safeguarded or extrapolated from the impact of City being successful and the damage the wrongly delivered announcement could impact them, fuck all to do with football the whole circus never was

So if they can’t find a safeguard they won’t be sticking together they will be buying time to move their investments

Fair play to you. I trusted my feelings. Something feels very wrong about man united to me. Even as a small child I felt it. Mum's side of the family are united. Dad's side City. Mum's side are sheep.

You do make some valid points but better minds than us are pulling the strings at City and so we have to presume they know what they’re doing?! Khaldoon is a legend in terms of being a high-profile business man. If he doesn’t know what he’s doing or how all this works out then god help the rest of us.
