PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Unexpected support, of sorts, from Arsene Wenger here:


Wow very welcome. It goes some way to rectify his previous inflamed responses while at Arsenal. Also, happy to hear that Wenger holds Khaldoon in such high esteem.

Maybe the mood is starting to change towards City from people who are not in direct competition. Nice change from the constant abuse.
 
I was thinking today,

Are City the only organisation, Business or individual that have been charged or are under suspicion as a result of Rui Pinto's hacking?

6 million emails or whatever it was and all they come up with is a case against City owners investing in their own Club / interest.
According to Wikipedia the leak also resulted in the PSG FFP case, the Ronaldo rape case, a release of European Super League plans, and multiple cases of footballers being done for tax evasion.
 
The independent committee were a craft on course to the Uk but unfortunately got shot down over Canada.

Given the 24 / 7 media smear campaign, how the f are we supposed to get a fair trial ? Oh wait, perhaps the Independent (lol) panel members are living under a rock.
Most journalists are either united or Liverpool fans so surprises there. Waiting for Adam crafton (rags fan) to write an anti Qatar article like he did during all world cup after united got linked to Qatari royal family.He tweeted how city's PR is brainwashing pep and city fans

I don't trust him. He was the one who started all financial doping bollocks .
 
Why should Bayern be?

They are the big dog in the most important sports in the biggest economy in Europe.

Their sponsors are usually German or even Bavarian companies that have an international interest. Made in Germany adverstises with made in Germany (and often competes for the advertising contract with other big German companies like in the car market). There is nothing wrong with that. And no - there is no related party. Just 3 companies (independent from each other and owned through shares traded on the stock market) that each own 7% of shares - 75% owned by the club and its fans. The club holds a big majority of the shares and with that the power. The companies just are investors.

The big difference might be that in the UK you have several big dogs that have to share the "usual" UK sponsors with each other. The foreign partners in the list (usually minor partners) have an interest in the German market and many you can find at about every big club like e.g. Coca-Cola or Konami/FIFA...

I am just saying that Bayern and PSG are outliers when you compare sponsorship income to broadcast income. That is a fact.

Broadcast income is an indicator firstly of how popular a national league is, both nationally and internationally, and, secondly, how successful a particular club is in that league. I think that is undeniable.

Sponsorship income, you would think, depends to the largest extent on the exposure gained from that sponsorship, especially when talking about international sponsorship.

I am not saying anything untoward is going on, although I will say that a large proportion of Bayern's sponsorship income comes from shareholder companies. I have no idea if they are at market value.
 
Soon as I read the words "Arsene Wenger" I feared the worst.
Though the cynic in me thinks he's smiling to our face while secretly stabbing us in the back.
He's got form.

Yep I don't trust him.

And there's also the danger of PL trying to find people who've worked for us in our past and might be bitter towards us as supposed whistleblowers.
