How odd is it that the club realise there is an agenda against us yet many on here dont.

I understand the use of 'illegal' is not correct in this instance.The word 'illegal' is defined in my dictionary as being 'forbidden in law'. Surely, this comes down to whether the commercial entity/business known as UEFA can bring in rules that have legal force. Just my opinion - I don't think they can.
Come on City, lets have this out with UEFA in the courts once and for all.
If you join a club (UEFA), by joining it you agree to abide by its rules and regulations. Simplified, its like if you join a social club and they impose a 'no hoody' ban on their premises, if you don't comply you can get thrown out although you have done nothing illegal.
Now when it comes to a business worth 100's of millions of pounds, things change. They need to ensure that everything they do is within the law as they are transgressing into such things as employment law, restraint of trade, anti competitive laws etc. This is why I think we will never see us and UEFA in court as their rules contradict these laws

And RD of the Mail IAFCThey really are gunning for us aren’t they?
There wasn’t this much effort into Chelsea’s scandal, they did it, they got banned and no one gave a shit.
City might get banned? Better talk about it as much as possible and speculate why and how and what the punishment should be.
The mainstream media are all a bunch of ****s.

So they will favour Bayern, whilst the Manumirror favours oh you know.Just wanted to say that Der Spiegel translates to The Mirror in English so it's not a surprise that their journalistic standards are down the shitter.

Not so,many proper blues dont accept there is an agenda. Clear as day to me and has been since the takeover. Or if you like since we became a threat to the cartel, here and in Europe.Because many on here are a bit sniff.

Yet another negative story from the daily mail against us.
Getting tiresome this.

Legal reasons apart, perhaps we feel that any statement just allows debate to start.City issued a statement on Saturday night saying: 'We will not be providing any comment on out-of-context materials purported to have been hacked or stolen from City Football Group and City personnel and associated people. The attempt to damage the club's reputation is clear.'
This has been the same statement issued before. Nothing has come off it till now.
Any idea what will be happening going forward.
Since the media have already decided on our guilt we have no way to publicise our side of the allegations so expectations of fairness would be optimistic..
Incidentally, the statement only refers to "no statement" not "no legal action" which obviously includes the media or their so called journos should they step over the line our owner sets.

We went top of the league yesterday. Expect more if the red dippers drop points todayI don't get it. Daily Mail reporting emails that came to light months ago as new? I'm lost.
