PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[johnnytapia]

I wish Delaney would turn ... in his fucking grave.

Only Johan Cruyff can do that.

So basically its up to the PL to prove us guilty, we don't have to prove our innocence by disclosing private company/sponsorship documents.
This has a non co-operation fine written all over it.

This, with the non co-operation fine,Jordan and everyone else will still deem us as technically being guilty,which Jordan kept banging on over the UEFA/CAS outcome..

 

[dadnlad]

hunting for headline instead of letting him talk

and there it is next news headline " city finacial expert predict's relegation"
no explination and content just relegation

I wonder if Stefan and Jordan had a chat off air

Jordan wouldn’t have the balls to take Stefan on. Stefan would eat the **** alive.

Which was?

That this is all down to a difference in length of limitation between the PL and Uefa.

And yet... just listened to the "news" and they've clipped his quote so it says something like "this only ends one way - and that's in relegation".

Absolutely shamelessly misrepresenting him.

It's not surprising at all, Talk Sport really is Talk Shite, I very rarely listen but did today and thank Stefan for the insight and his simple explanation.
Talk Shite has no class or Integrity and never will have it whilst they employ people like Jordan who splurge out rubbish on subjects in which they have no expertise in and seem incapable of accepting valid logical points of view.

I can’t wait for the ‘yeah but only cos they couldn’t prove it’ comments from every bitter **** out there.

Yep. In that sense it’s job done by the PL. Fuck knows how long it’ll take to shake off the stigma even if completely exonerated.

I know from my club contacts that the media strategy was to court certain journalists who the club thought were 'opinion formers'. Serious journalists who could write using a more sophisticated medium than a crayon. So probably people like (I'm guessing) Martin Samuel, Henry Winter, Martyn Ziegler, David Conn, Rory Smith, etc. I do know Nick Harris was one of that group. I talked to him and passed on stuff I knew, which the club seemingly had no issue with (I'd have certainly known if they had).

They shared information with them, the intention being that we'd get a more sympathetic and objective hearing in the media...

At some point though, Harris's attitude changed dramatically......... But even knowing all this, the club were very puzzled about his 180 degree turn. His hatred of us is seemingly pathological.

Delaney was the same to a large degree. Up to us winning the league at Brighton in 2019 he was OK. By the time we'd beaten Watford at Wembley, just one week later, he'd turned.

I guess if we know City were speaking to journalists this way and for that reason, it'd be no surprise if other clubs were too. There's a whole bigger story waiting to be investigated about club payments to journalists (and I don't mean City), I'm sure of it...

They serve the mob - that's how they earn a crust - not through intelligence, impartiality or integrity. Just tell the mob what they want to hear and have lots of patronising, belittling voice-overs of how we are supposed to sound.

It's no wonder they've turned comments off, they are trying to control the narrative, silence any other viewpoints than the ones they want.

Can't we as fans complain to offcom about dirty tricks like talksports are using? If we did it in numbers something might actually be done for once because the club wont.
