City fined over £2m by PL | Sanction agreed for 22 breaches relating to ko delays

[Alan Harper's Tash]

One thing I would say is that while I cant remember a specific instance where I though we were delaying a kick off, I can absolutley recall times where the teams are lined up ready to go and have had to stand around until the ref gets the nod from the TV companies to start the game.

That’s because it’s irrelevant and everyone is still queueing for a pint.

Fuck me, im on a rant now.

So kicking off two minutes late can result in a £100k fine but fans at the swamp being put at health and safety risk due to a badly maintained roof and piss flooding down the steps from the toilets is all good.

Again another Question

Were the match officlas and the referee and the other team ready to kick off

Feckin hell - I actually thought this was some form of piss take until I checked the bbc.
Is this what the powers that be are willing to stoop to now????
It's miles beyond embarrassing now - I look forward to the implementation of the clock ensuring ALL teams are held to account (err or maybe not)

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

This is getting ridiculous

Getting?

Winning the league this season is going to be sweet. It's all stacking up for everyone to be against us again which always make sit better

Your Spot on

Pep team talk, look go out and win again

If we had a PR team they would have their work cut out.

Time for a new sponsor ,Rolex ,Tag Heuer .......

Surely there must be some high end company in Abu Dhabi that makes decent time pieces, that'd boil even more piss ;)

 

[abu13]

I wonder if this is an attempt to re-frame all the charges against us.

Lets assume that 20 charges of the 115 stick, and lets assume they are for the minor charges of none co-operation. The PL will look extremely weak, now if they can find us guilty of 42 charges out of 137 charges it looks like have been quite naughty.

The more I look at this the more it convinces me that they know the 115 or the APT rulings are going to shit.
