CAS judgement: UEFA ban overturned, City exonerated (report out p603)

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

My word Sol Campbell is clueless, especially when it comes to City.

You have 8 words too many in that sentence, 2 at the start and 6 at the end……

Completely agree. Counteract the lies with facts. Tony Evans was shut up that way after spouting off and being schooled by people who knew their stuff. Abusing them directly is counter productive.

Remember Colin Tony Evans said that City were to be banned for three seasons because of our so called FFP breach. Totally clueless needs to get himself better sources.

These stories will also be aimed at counteracting the news and positivity that the signings of Grealish and Kane would bring.

The narrative can’t be about City bringing in the countries best players.

 

[eastmanc]

Plenty of don't knows and what ifs and worst case scenarios but not one mention of the concrete fact that we were cleared at CAS.

They are fucking desperate as all they can see is City ‘s arse disappearing over the horizon..

 

[eastmanc]

Can the law experts here answer me about one thing.

Is there no time limit which PL can wait to charge City for something or can this shit just go on and on ?

What I mean is if PL dont come forward and say that the case is closed City will be guilty in every ones eyes except City fans.

We are anyway.

How true.

It’s all about Harris and clicks. Job done!

No wonder Harris is overjoyed and over the (blue) Moon with his shill work.

Thank you to all the 3.9m people who have read this thread over the past 24 hours, not least the City fans who have talked about it & thus promoted it so widely. These issues clearly matter for so many supporters of clubs everywhere.

Also thanks to the 1,000+ new followers over the past 24 hours. You are certain to be disappointed as I tweet about politics, niche literary novels, the weather, logs (in winter), and how hard it is to source porcini mushrooms in my town.

That's a bit shit...ake mate.

I'd guess Harris needs the money as his Sporting Intelligence company is dormant. It may also be that he's been put up to it by the usual suspects. The Mail aren't going to cast a critical eye over this, in the way that me and others have. They don't know FFP from shit but they think Harris does. All they see is clicks from Liverpool & United fans and we know the lengths they'll go to to get those. No one else has touched this, whereas normally they'd be all over an "exclusive", rehashing it for their own papers. Yet nada, which tells me that every other so-called "quality" paper sees this as embarrassing nonsense. The Mail, sadly, isn't capable of embarrassment.

The only worry I've got over this is that our US-owned friends are using the same tactics that have served them so well over the years at UEFA. Threaten a breakaway to get what you want. That tactic got us the 2-season ban in the first place after all. And the clubs have shown that the threat is real, following the abortive Super League announcement. The lines are drawn in that battle now and any future breakaway effectively means the end of the PL as a major sporting competition and commercial entity.

We already know that FSG are not just amoral, but totally immoral. The Glazers are just plain dumb and will go along with whatever John Henry tells them. So it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if their grubby prints were all over this and that's the reason we started the legal fight, complaining about impartiality and handing over documents, which we knew would fall straight into the hands of our enemies.

Thanks Colin.

It used to be that we criticized the media because their editorials replaced the actual news. I suspect that they are now up for hire to print or report whatever any generous sponsor may need to publicise.

We already get sins of omission (joint PL and City request reported as only City) so perhaps representing adverts as actual news is the media's way forward?

Not sure if mentioned already, but the mail removed all the articles written yesterday from their main sports page.

Removed completely from their site or other stories have replaced?
