The lack of objectivity just exposes their motives.

Apocalypse now: City wrangle shows the wealthiest owners could kill football | Jonathan Wilson

Legal battle between Manchester City and the Premier League highlights the game’s existential crisis – and it may already be too late to save it

CITY will kill football - wow......I am just awaiting the next article that CITY are the main cause of climate change and had a hand in the killing of JFK......they really do have an agenda against us.

I’m not clicking on it, but who wrote it?
 
The latest Tweet from Wallace on X, the little, snivelling, Red Shirt, Shill.

 
I'm fast reaching the stage where I consider virtually every journalist, or fan of an opposing club,to be a complete dick.

If they try to engage with "cheat" or "115" I invite them to prove me wrong by stating the exact precise sporting advantage that (in their opinion), City wouldn't have gained if Mancini had been paid a different way,. especially as the club made a huge loss in the early years of FFP.

It's the same with Delaney's disingenuous assumption of guilt.
No rational debate whatsoever. Just cowardly rants with no right to reply as he's blocked the vast majority of people who disagree, myself included

I held a low opinion of him since the days he used to appear on Hold The Back Page /Sunday Supplement, and I’ve never had cause to alter my view.

As with the rest of them, what would he have us do after what’s gone on? What would he do in City’s shoes? We are doing the right thing, 100%, and are not the ones responsible for this chain of events.

The legal way to counter illegal manoeuvres by the regulator. The report is not based on reality but rather a version of the authors biased opinion. Opinion is not facts no matter how much he wants it to be.

These journos should remember two things about the premier league rules.

1. The right to take a dispute to a tribunal for resolution is expressly allowed within the rules. Anyone suggesting that we've done something wrong here is saying that we shouldn't do something that the rules say we can.

2. All rules must comply with UK law. I'm yet to see any criticism from the Guardian or Telegraph of the league for bringing in rules that do not comply with UK law. And that says a lot about their integrity as newspapers and journalists.
 
This reminds me of a sort of altercation I was in years ago. A colleague (Burnley fan), pissed up, starts lashing out at me because I’d stopped him doing things he shouldn’t at a party. It went on for a while, throwing punches, kicking out, and all kinds of aggressive behaviour, until the point, in fear of him landing, I could take no more and just sparked him.

Strangely, the small crowd that had gathered, mainly his mates who he had been abusing, were pointing at me as if I was in the wrong. Luckily, a copper came over, put his hand on my shoulder and said ‘Don’t worry, son. I seen it all and it was pure self-defence’.

Maybe a strange analogy but it reminded me of how long City stood their and took the blows without a word of condemnation from other clubs and the media, but when City decided enough is enough and throw the right-hook, putting the bully on the floor, they are full of indignation against the one that had taken it for all those years.

Thank God we have laws in this country, which don’t allow the bullies to get away with such behaviour, and they should now be thinking twice before trying it again.

Can someone tell the idiot Wallace that we got our way. The only reason we need to challenge anything in the future is if they carry on acting illegally.
I'd tell him but I'm banned from the comments section of this red cartel rag.

Isn’t charging City with 115 exactly what he’s describing here. They must be guilty of 1 thing everyone celebrated so keep trying until you get the result you want.

Sam Wallace is a ****!
/QUOTE]
You could have put your house on the usual suspects coming out to play today with their lackey protestations, Wallace,Wilson etc.
No mention of the interest free loans or indeed the letter allegedly from Arsenal 5 days after the Newcastle takeover.
From reading Stefans tweet regarding Chelsea, looks like Cool hand Khaldoon has dropped a nuclear in the starter course, can't wait for the mains and the afters!

“More legal action until they get their way”

He could have said. “More legal action until the American owners stop getting their way”

But that wouldn’t suit his narrative, would it.
