Ceferin's statement about us was to reassure other waverers that UEFA would welcome them back. He is well diposed to us (he opposed the attempts to sanction us) but that's all.

Still waiting ;)Assume everyone has received the email from our chairman. Thoughts?
I felt it wasn’t very heartfelt personally although I wasn’t expecting much.

We already are seen differently, and the influence of those clubs that were always against us is diminished.why? they had a word with you?
If you think this week has done the club any favours your deluded.
We will be seen as no different to any of the 14 clubs involved, even as it seems that us and Chelsea's were reluctant members, the fact is we joined.
‘It takes courage to admit a mistake but I never doubted City had the ability and common sense to make that decision,’ said Ceferin, who attended a City Champions League match last season. ‘They are a real asset for the game and I am delighted to be working with them for a better future for the European game.’
No way we will ever know how intentional it was, but the fact is we are now seen as more reliable than the old powers.

As you can see I don`t agree with you (we just don`t and never will get the full story so wont / cant criticise ) but I`m not going to fall out with any blue on this matter.Our owner and Execs have been magnificent without doubt, but no one can be exempt from criticism.
The club and whoever took the decision messed up, end of story, there are no positives to be taken from that decision.
But we have admitted our mistake and backed out, learn from it and move on.
3 Points last night eased the pain, a cup on the sideboard Sunday evening and things will be almost back to normal.

He can comeback when he's had a rethink on the platinum con, cup schemes, season tickets increasing year on year, ridiculous matchday prices, people having to give their time up to pick up away tickets at the ground etc etc.
The only positive in all this shitshow is that hopefully their might have been a change in the way that fans are thought about and treated until then it's all empty words!

Ceferin has also said he spoke with 5 clubs on Friday who told him about the SL with a couple not wanting to be involved but were signing up anyway.Ceferin's statement about us was to reassure other waverers that UEFA would welcome them back. He is well diposed to us (he opposed the attempts to sanction us) but that's all.
He also released his statement within 90 seconds of us releasing ours saying we’re leaving.
It just doesn’t seem plausible that there wasn’t an ongoing dialogue between him and the club the whole way along.

Isn't everybody. Nobody really knows, there is enough speculation out there for it to spun to suit anybodys personal bias. Point is the speculation seems to surround City, nobody else is getting the same lee way in the media.Who said there was no discussion?

True, but care must be taken not to add spurious facts (i.e, made up) into the narrative. Speculation, guesswork is fine but nobody should go further.Isn't everybody.
