    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I think we'd have to take the opinion of "one of our lot" very seriously indeed if they were wearing a Barcelona shirt.

    Ken Barnes loses 67 year old record

    Wasn't it 6-2? I remember Dave Hickson getting his marching orders as well. City were magnificent that day. I remember Ken's "tap" penalties, but I can't for the life of me remember who got the others. We had some really good wins that season and some hammerings as well. That's the season...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I must point out that Keeper did not quote me in full - I said that I would be not only astonished but delighted if the PL's evidence was as flimsy as newspaper articles, questions in pressers and jokes by rival players and managers. This would mean we really had no case to answer. The point...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    You're not putting a downer on what I say; the point I'm making is that the PL may have some documentary evidence which appears to conflict with our BUT what seems to upset some blues are jibes, newspaper articles and even questions in pressers and the members of the IC won't even bother with...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I don't know what evidence (if any!) the PL have got to support their claim that City have breached PL regulations 115 times over a period of god knows how many years but I'd be astonished, and actually delighted, if their evidence was nothing more that a series of Jamie Jackson's questions...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Sorry, nothing to do with 115, but my abiding memory of Clichy is one superb through ball to Aguero to open the scoring against Wolves the day the rags ha drawn at home to Everton in 2012. Brilliant.

    Ex City striker to be president of Georgia

    Got hurt at Fulham early in our 3rd division season and never played again, if I remember correctly. After Georgi the best of our Georgians?

    Liverpool (A) PL - Post Game

    We lost 2-0 at Anfield and I admit that Liverpool were comfortably the better team. In fact after 15 minutes I would have settled for a 2-0 defeat because it looked as though it was going to be much worse but we did improve considerably, even though the scousers did seem more concerned with...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    I can't imagine ANY British government would want to complicate relations in strategically very sensitive areas of the world by forcing diplomats, members of government etc etc etc to sell their football clubs. I'm sure that a LABOUR government, if it wished to interfere in matters of...

    Europa/Conference League | Gameweek 5 | 28 Nov '24

    I see Rangers are 4 up at Nice! That's pretty good because Nice have a wealthy and ambitious owner, don't they?

    Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)

    Things don't look good at the moment but we all know who the best man in the world to solve our problems is and he's already at the club for two more years - "And we've got Guardiola ... etc....etc

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Thank you for splendidly objective summary. I now realise that I need not have read the previous 7582 pages but my belief/ hope remains that we will not see City kick off 26/27 at Buxton but that we will all assemble at the Etihad to watch Pep's quadruple winners kick off against Liverpool, a...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    An excellent and heartening read. There are many, many City fans who cut through all the legal jargon and all the pseudo legal nonsense put forward by a rabble of overpaid, mendacious scribblers and present the "case" as one between a cartel that struggles to describe the weather in terms that...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    There are many fraudsters and criminals involved with PL clubs but our owners and those who run our club most certainly do not number amongst them. And it's time for us all to shout loud and long again that Manchester City AND the city of Manchester thank you Sheikh Mansour.

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    There have been some excellent contributions to this thread and they have really deepened our understanding of the issues raised by these 115 charges :there have also been many scurrilous contributions which have contributed nothing to our understanding of anything. I thank those who have tried...

    The Title Race - 2024/25

    I said, at the start of the season, that if City played consistently anywhere near our best, we would win the title again. At no stage so far have City reached that level. Even in our unbeaten run we were letting sides run through us, not regularly, but often enough to be worrying. Recently...

    PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

    Did they actually apologise? When they drew Juve in the CL there were pious appeals for "reconciliation", but never any suggestion that Liverpool fans had actually done anything in any way wrong. It was as if Italian fans were trying to blacken the name of great scouse fans wronged for...

    Spurs (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Depressing. I remember losing 4-0 at home to Wimbledon in KK's first season but then we played Horlock as DM and stormed to promotion. Then in Pep's first season we got thumped 4-0 at Goodison and didn't lose away again all season. Pep found a solution to opposition counters but this doesn't...

    City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

    "The purpose of the APT rules is to ensure clubs are not able to benefit from commercial deals or reductions in costs that are not at fair market value by virtue of relationships with associated parties.” This, quite clearly, was not the aim of the APT rules because the PL willingly acted to...
