That would be on City and BMG. It's up to them to decide the date and time within two hours.Made me laugh when he asked whether UEFA were going to fine themselves for making the announcement about the postponement an hour after their own rules state they have to announce it by.

Which neither club could do as BMG wanted an earlier kick off but City couldn't get the stewards in for it.
So if anyone gets fined which I doubt, it would be both clubs.
Sorry but I totally disagree. It's quite obvious that even with the impending court defeat of FFP that UEFA/G14 haven't learned a thing. They change FFP not to tackle debt as it was originally supposed to, but to allow investment to build a club as we originally fought for BUT with the caveat that it's only for clubs with NEW owners! Yet again this was a latent attack on Manchester City and the like and a blatant assist to the two Milan clubs.
Both Milan clubs complain that they should be given free passage into the CL based on their former successes as it was they who helped build the CL brand & lo & behold 12 months later its on the table for discussion. This was too obvious an advantage in reality so what do G14/UEFA come with? A change in the coefficients to guarantee that if the Milan's/ManUre's do qualify for the CL, they get the easiest groups forever based on the facts outlined previously.
When UEFA becomes a fair and impartial organisation and acts in the best interest of all football fans and not in the interest of the European elite, I'll stop booing. Our point hasn't been made, its just highlighted the crooked biased foundation of G14/UEFA & yet they unashamedly continue carving up the game to suit themselves. Until this is addressed I will continue to boo until I pass out through a lack of oxygen........
Pep is a great manager and he's got us playing fantastic football but he'll be gone in three years and he'll take his restless intellect elsewhere for another challenge. Yes he's a brilliant tactician and it's going to be wonderful while he's here, but this isn't the bloody second coming! He's just passing through just as he did at Barcelona and Munich and when he's gone we'll still be here.

Short sightedness creeping in. No, Pep's not the messiah and yes he's not going to be around forever. However, it's hard to see how any of the changes are going to last if he's purely being written off as just another manager. Maybe he was just that for Bayern but we are not Bayern. A large part of what he's trying to instill is a big club mentality. Keyword there is mentality. Personally, I don't feel like that can be achieved whilst we retain what frankly can and will be perceived as a victim complex with regards to a preferential treatment of the "elite clubs".
Whereas there is indisputable evidence of UEFA's system of justice being cack handed and costing us dearly, we are already a very, very big club. What's stopping us from accepting we are in the elite bracket? Mentality.
Who knows? Maybe we don't want that kind of mindset; I know that one of the reasons I and many others chose to follow City was because of our underdog status and that will forever be an intrinsic part of the DNA My club. But, if in five years we still aren't putting ourselves in that elite bracket, it won't be because of UEFA, it certainly won't be because of Pep, it will be because we haven't let our past go.
I think you'll find that you're lurching very close to granting Pep divine right, he's good, but he's not perfect, when he talked about the empty stadium and the booing he simply did not know what he was talking about.
