So you are Ok that City will not do anything about this AGAIN and we will be called cheats AGAIN .
What can City realistically do? Any one with any legal experience will tell you a institution the size of City taking on a media outlet is a PR disaster. If you think the shit we get now is bad, wait until we are seen to be a 'Middle-Eastern owned club attacking free speech' because that is what will come. That will attract negative publicity much further than sports journalists & have a much greater impact on the clubs reputation.
The fact is this isn't going to stop, it hasn't since 2018 when it started. These new leaks contain nothing new, maybe an email that says we need to keep the auditors onside from 2012 would be the only one causing slight concern, but in any event, it's from fucking 2012. This will blow over as it's been dealt with @ CAS in detail. City will settle with the PL outside of arbitration as it's a nightmare for both parties to sort (imo) & the media will move full tilt from FFP cheats to getting state ownership out of the game.
Liked this bit
"That narrative, however, is largely espoused by the cultish element of Liverpool’s varied support base, and cheered on by blinkered associates who serve as media pundits."
It has been going on since they took over, we have continued to be the best run team in the UK and the world.So you are Ok that City will not do anything about this AGAIN and we will be called cheats AGAIN .
Unfortunately there's no changing the perception of the club amongst non-City fans. The narrative around City is now set and regardless of what, how and when we win things it'll be the same group of articles.
I’m ok with it. It really doesn’t matter.So you are Ok that City will not do anything about this AGAIN and we will be called cheats AGAIN .
Finally someone with a answer without belittle me well done sir. But you are saying what I am saying, this will only get worse . Do we as City fans want this for the next 10 years ? Is this not enough ?What can City realistically do? Any one with any legal experience will tell you a institution the size of City taking on a media outlet is a PR disaster.
