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

Perhaps they can see that what we are doing in football is beneficial FOR football ? Unlike some we have no debt, and our owners are not taking money out of football.

Yeah. The weird thing is that from a distance it looks like City are just trying to win and be successful, whereas certain other clubs are trying to become a monopoly.
 
Peace talks have been held between UEFA's president, Aleksander Ceferin, and Khaldoon Al Mubarak following #ManCity's victory over the governing body on Monday. The conversation went well, with both men committed to ushering in a new era of friendship. [

Khaldoon Al Mubarak initiated the contact within hours of the publishing of the verdict on Monday. What followed was a 'cordial conversation'. The call was said to be 'positive' with both parties expressing 'a keen desire to work closely together going forward'. [

What's interesting is apparently City were on good terms with Infantino too, no? And now he's head of FIFA.

Is it possible that UEFA (and FIFA) could be on our side here? Against certain power clubs I mean?

I'm convinced we played a role in having FIFA take control of VAR for next season.

the full quotes are mental to be fair


"We all know what City do. When they were punished (by UEFA originally), there was no surprise among the majority of us involved in European football.



"I don't want to say (people were) happy, but at last there was a sense of justice against these big state-owned clubs, the other being Paris Saint-Germain.




"City will be in the Champions League next season because the CAS did things badly, not because City have done things properly.



"I would like to see the CAS's final resolution. When it's released and I read it, I will say what I am convinced about to Guardiola, that they haven't done things properly. They've done things badly at the CAS.

"The CAS is dead. I've had doubts about the CAS for many years, not just because of this resolution, but for many more. It's the opposite of what it should be; there's no transparency."



City boss Guardiola feels his club are owed an apology, believing the verdict vindicates their rigorous defence of their position.



Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho branded the CAS decision a "a disgrace" and Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said it was not "a good day for football."



Tebas alleges the four-time Premier League champions have used fictitious sponsors and inflated naming-rights deals to boost their income to allow them to spend big in the transfer market.



"When the CAS reversed the decision, there were protests – from Klopp, Mourinho – because we all know they're trying to find a way around the FFP rules," said Tebas.

"City, in the last five years, along with PSG, are the club that have spent the most.



"City haven't signed with their own resources, like Manchester United do, who bring in money through television or sponsors. They sign with petrodollars, with money obtained through oil by the (owners in the) United Arab Emirates.



"The state-owned clubs in Europe do what they want. Fictitious sponsors, naming rights (for stadiums) in the case of Man City.



"The Etihad Stadium is not worth (what is paid for it) and that creates a very dangerous economic situation for us."

Fuck me. If I’ve understood the likes of @Prestwich_Blue et al then the Etihad deal was deemed to be fair value as part of the 2014 settlement. La Liga should be sidelining this fucker as he is also damaging their reputation in my opinion
