PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

All this going on with Chelsea, Saudi Arabia, PIF & possibly Newcastle suddenly makes an alleged 3rd party payment to Mancini seem minuscule, no?

FFP has always been a joke, but if we receive any form on punishment when this shower of shit is happening so brazenly, even the biggest City hater (with half a brain) can see the hypocrisy.
We're top dogs. Comes with the territory I suppose.
 
Just got back from a holiday in Parga, Greece. The day I arrived I saw two 8 to 10 year olds both in full City kits with Harland on the shirts. I thought great at least there are some Mancs here to chat about the treble. Turned out they were not even British.
Every shop that sold football shirts had Harland shirts in prime position, with very few Rag shirts on display.

I hate those fake Harland shirts.
Rip off merchants.
 
It feels like the club is getting dragged towards a punishment that will end up being opinion rather than matter of fact. There’s little recourse after what ever verdict to appeal, the way the charges have been listed as 115 in total. They are desperate to make something stick to show they are doing something to curb City.
The charges were rushed out, framed and presented for maximum reputational damage to our club, the press were briefed and we were duly slaughtered by the media and the fan bases of rival clubs.
At that time, City were not at their peak - Pep had criticised attitudes, plus we’d just lost to Spurs and an attractive Arsenal side had a decent lead in the PL. United were talking about a quadruple. The jackals in the press gathered for Pep’s conference and all the early questions were all about him walking. Job done, so they thought.
Only Pep came out swinging, he named names and stood defiant. The club, the team and fans were galvanised and we’ve just completed the best season of any club in the history of English football.
That worked well for our enemies, didn’t it ?
United are a shambles of a club with their never-ending sale and a Manager and playing staff with the collective personality of an aspirin. Next season Liverpool will play on Thursday nights. All this, while we sit at the very top table with Erling and Jack hoovering up young fans across the globe. And Government regulatory oversight coming soon to a Premier League cartel near you !
A paradigm shift has just happened and even us blues are struggling to keep up with it. We’ve cracked the big one. Middle Eastern capital is circling, the Saudi League will compete for (ageing) star players, the broadcast Media landscape is changing. City’s charges were the last throw of the dice of the old world but that world is fast disappearing. City are now global box office gold. The PL will not be looking to commit self-harm by dragging City through any more shit - harming us harms them. Money talks. They’ll find a way out of the mess they’ve created.
Ask yourself this : does Khaldoon look worried ?
Does Pep look worried ?
We’ve got this.
