City's case at CAS came down to technicalities over time barring according to Miggy on Back Pages Tonight? How is he allowed to get away unchallenged with such fundamentally untrue remarks? Do our press office completely overlook this sort of lie or is he considered to be such an irrelevance that they smile and move onto more important issues?

Someone put the vertically challenged scote back in his playpen the wretched pathetic carbuncle

the funny thing is when delaney et al go on about technicalities etc they overlook the fact that the law and life itself is a bunch of technicalities and that is where the vast majority of cases are argued, take a case where someone is killed, fundamentally it is a murder but technically it could be manslaughter, murder in the 2nd degree and any of numerous technicalities and they decide the case because that what law is we do not live in a fundamentalist world where right and wrong is black and white, i mean fundamentally delaney et al are halfwitted brainless gobshites but technically they are journalists.

As the great Peter Cook said
"They got him on a technicality ....murder "
Migsy is, both technically and literally, an amoeba

I believe it goes even further than that mate. The time barring is as much a part of the rules as anything else. It’s a fundamental, express and prominent rule in the legal agreement between the clubs and UEFA. Everyone knows about it from the outset, and agrees to be bound by it.

People pontificating about breaking the rules fail to appreciate (or choose to ignore) that the time limits are front and centre to that metric, just as much as any calculations around finance. They have equal weight and value, arguably more as they supersede them. That is not a technicality.

The time limit is a core part of the rules, and to characterise it as a technicality, or worse, a loophole, is legally incorrect and is intended to diminish its prominence and the intent (express and implied) behind it, within those rules.

A quick check on the BBC and the back pages of newspapers reveals that the whole of Englands media is behind local club and plucky underdogs Real Madrid.

Nah.
Let's hope Arsenal win tonight, then bottle it in the second leg.
That capitulation would damage them more mentally ?

This morning before City the holding champions of almost everything play 14 times CL winner Real Madrid weve had the Wayne Rooney shinner goal against us from 13 years ago as if that has any relevance on the 2024 season.

Sly Sky wankers.

Jesus christ anyone would think arteta is the worlds best manager according to the reporting

I'm in two minds whether I want them to get absolutely hammered over both legs (I'm talking record levels of goals conceded) or to get a scruffy win over the two legs and then have a CL semi distracting them in the league.
