Got to be honest here and say it just doesn't bother me one bit what the fuck the outcome is. Strip us of the title, relegate us to the FC Rags division or worst still make us play in fucking red and white bring it on you corrupt spineless UEFA Bastards. They might want to make an example of somebody or they might be satisfied we're fine and no doubt they will then be accused of bottling it but either way it wont stop me going to watch City and I doubt it will stop the Sheikh running us.

Ladyman also says City have grown nervous of failing FFP after being confident, but that the sanction would likely be a fine.

Which sounds OK, but he claims City wouldn't be happy what it does for their image after working so hard to comply with FFP.

The Telegraph transfer enbargo bullshit story is by far their most viewed this 24h, so Ladyboy had to write a similar story for the mail, click whores..

Ian Ladyman is a job thief of the highest order. He's a copy and paste merchant at best, a dose of thrush at worst. By that I mean he's a fucking irritating ****.

Ian Ladyman. You are shit at your job. If your eyes ever read this, then damn them and I hope they burst.

Twat.

I'm shocked at the outrageous accusation that a highly respected and old established organ as the Mail would ever be guilty of anything less than the highest standards of journalistic integrity. Such cynicism. Such profane impugning of its honesty.

O tempora! O mores! Shame, shame on you!

Manchester City are the future of football. No-one realised in 2008, and many don't see it now, the seismic changes that were going to flow from Sheikh Mansour's purchase of a sick footballing giant. Immediately his enormous personal wealth was perceived as a massive threat to football's established order but few , if any outside Abu Dhabi, realised just how much he was going to change the football landscape. The "footballing aristocracy" though are not on the same wavelength and they're still trying to solve the problems of 2008 - how do you stop the Sheikh making City a major footballing super power? Five years of nonsense later the answer is clear - you can't. The Sheikh's got all the answers: build academies, training complexes, bigger grounds, buy top players....INVEST. The one infallible answer! So UEFA tries to prevent investment but it concentrates on only one aspect of the balance sheet, money on players! Not a chance! And the Sheikh's already vanished over the horizon and is developing a completely new phenomenon - the first multinational football club, with, at the moment, branches in Manchester, New York and Melbourne (others to follow?!). Rather than trying to stop these developments in their tracks UEFA should be asking itself what action can it take to facilitate them and ensure they are for the good of football as a whole. I suspect UEFA is and will. The dinosaurs will be left behind trying to sell shirts in China. FFP is outdated rubbish and will be discarded this summer.

Another aspect of City's / HH Sheikh Mansour's / Abu Dhabi's strategy is the creation of the pitches in the deprived areas of some of America's largest cities.

The kids using 'our' pitches will more than likely grow up as fans of Manchester City, as will their children. And these new fans will buy City merchandise, thereby adding to our income as the 'City' brand continues to grow internationally. The US is a relatively - as yet - untapped market in terms of income for the top European sides, but I believe we have given ourselves a very important leg up by creating these new pitches.

Its great that so many journalists are churning out what are nothing more than opinion pieces which seem to be based on rumour, incorrect assumptions and simple inaccuracies.

As MCFC have plainly refused to engage with any journalists on the subject beyond a few banalities and UEFA have said nothing to anyone, not even the clubs involved, the sources that are informing such opinions must be pretty top notch.
