PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

As a Newcastle fan these new rules they're* trying to push through are hilarious and so fucking transparent. We've abided by FFP, we've got a stack of new 'fair market value' commercial deals, and now here's some new hurdles. The established cartel are bricking it that we'll usurp them.

We can't loan a player from the Saudi league, but literally every other club in the league can? That seems totally fair. Will it stop Chelsea hoovering up young players from their feeder clubs, or Man Utd, or Liverpool? Course it won't.

We can't get a sponsor unless we've got similarly valued bids from other companies? Has that been the case for Man Utd's official tractor partner? Were there multiple tractor companies all offering up partnership deals for the same price? Was there shite.

We've not spent anything like the money Chelsea and Man Utd have, and yet we're still above them, still playing better football, still fielding the likes of Jamall Lascelles and Jacob fucking Murphy. This is all because they're scared their time at the top is coming to an end, they're trying to pull the drawbridge up behind them.


*by "they" I mean Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd and Spurs.
Having failed to stop City by foul means, the G14 European elite clubs ensured the Champions League format was changed to include an additional English place.

In fact, if an English team won the Champions League & Europa League & those teams finished outside the top 5, England could feasibly have 7 teams competing.

Just like City, Newcastle are now living the dream, but you're now finding out like we did the nefarious lengths that ManUre, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea & Spurs will go to, to protect their hegemony.

You Geordies will soon become accounting experts like us City fans have had to... :-)

Pal, they will even change the rules after the event to justify an infringement. Stick at it, enjoy the ride, the last 15 years for us blues have been glorious and if any other base deserves to live it then it is you guys.
 
Have we ever had the acclaim we deserved. Not even when we were winning trophies in the late sixties early seventies did we get the praise we deserved. It was all united this united that. Let's face it we are not that well liked and never have been. Our only crime is that we are not one of the red tops and come from the same area as them lot up the road.
We were very well liked in the 60s, but not by the BBC who had a monopoly of tv football. Btween Christmas and the end of the season we were shown once (apart from the final day) against four times, iirc, by the rags, despite the fact that we led the table for most weeks. The only time the BBC had the rights to a Euro final and did not show it was our winning the ECWC.
