PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[I'm Blue]

I wasn’t aware of that but maybe it’s not surprising that Arsenal would back the FA and PL in keeping self regulation and probably not surprising that City would prefer an independent regulator given I imagine relations with the PL are probably not that cordial at the moment. But that’s me speculating.

We voted for an independent regulator before the charges.
Your club voted against it cos they’ll lose their power as founding member of the premier league.

How can we have a fair hearing when shit like this is making headlines like this everyday. The media are doing their best like they have from day one with regards to our owners, maybe they should have done the same as the Glazers that way we wouldn’t be of interest to any media.

Why doesn't the club defend itself more and
Start going after these cunts for defamation of
character.
Start banning some of these fuckers from the ethihad. Do something fffs.

Nothing any journalist has said tonight has been slanderous so there is nothing to go after. It might have been wrong or rehashing stuff but not slanderous.

One of the major criticisms of the UAE are its laws and attitudes to dessent and journalism, so banning journalists for reporting on an investigation would play right into their hands.

The club is defending itself by retaining the best legal representation. They will hopefully prevail.

They're also investing more in its own City media team and their output so as to bypass traditional outlets.

Just saw the David Dein clip. Ha ha - fair play to him. I don’t think Morgan was expecting that - probably thought a fellow Gooner would go all in on us!

Do you think he’s possibly trying to distance himself, the accusations are that Arsenal have been the main ringleader. He had 3 choices….

1. Refuse to appear as there is an ongoing investigation.
2. Slander us.
3. Defend & say nothing proven.

We know they only think of themselves so why was that the best course of action for Arsenal, Dein.

When we were first trying to break up the monopoly of the ‘big/top 4’ I was of the opinion that I didn’t want the same teams winning it every year and I welcomed the competition.
(Everything we fought against)
It kept things exciting.
Well FUCK THAT!!
With all the shit we have to put up with on a weekly basis, the lies, the hate, the agenda.
For what?
All cos we took titles off their media darlings.
Fuck em all.
Turn it into a farmers league, burn the fucking thing to the ground for all I care.
It’s time to start fighting fire with fire.
I’d start by pulling the plug on any future investments into the uk.
Let’s see how all these smug cunts act when the government really do get involved.
This witch hunt fucking stinks.

the media pressure should have no effect on the outcome of the case and i dont feel city are that fussed about it. at end of the day like CAS it will come down to the facts of the case. If we cant defend the charges with the amount of legal representation we are no doubt throwing at it and based on facts then it will show that we havnt followed due process.

If Piers Morgan told me his real name is Piers Morgan I still wouldn’t believe him, he’s no credibility whatsoever, just an egotistical prick who supports a failing football team, what a ****.

Such a new revelation that it was in the Guardian in 2020 and was part of the UEFA evidence which was dismissed by CAS. You would think Keegan would have checked on Google and phoned up David Conn.

Mike Keegan eats his crayons, he certainly can't fucking write anything sensible with them
