PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Etihad didn't have the money, but as they are state owned the Abu Dhabi government was subsidising Etihad's losses
It was all revealed in a court case in the US

Cheers

The only Spurs fan who spoke to me just mouthed "Ya fackin' norfern mankey caaant".

Funny though I didn’t get that. We all have knob heads.

Everyone talks about Ceferin being a lawyer but he’s actually a politician…… a self serving politician who will curry favour & headlines whenever he thinks it serves his purpose.

Yes, but if he wasn't he would have been dead and buried within a week of taking the job.

When I joined the Swiss/French company I worked for, my new boss, the chairman of the group, gave me a book and said "Read this, you will need it". It was The Art of War by Sun Tzu. I read it and thought why the hell would I need this. It was all clear within the first month.

Ceferin is fighting for what he believes in at UEFA. He is a friend (at the moment) in face of the ESL. I doubt the club are giving up on him just yet. Nor should we as fans. You want UEFA or Ceferin out? That's fine, but beware what comes next.

I doubt it, as both CAS and even UEFA accepted that Etisalat had met their obligations.

This is true. Etisalat is a bit of a red herring. But it may be a good idea in your articles to go through Etisalat in more detail for those who don't know it so well. A lot of people believed that snazzy youtube exposé, which was all nonsense.

Your sub-stack is an excellent idea, by the way. We should put them in a separate forum here so people can access them when they want to know more about a particular issue arising from the allegations.

I don’t have a problem with Ceferin & I prefer to be in UEFA than a new organisation designed by cunts. I have a problem with ‘politics’ as a game, I got burnt in a organisation you described from liars & cheats. I know I’m naive but I just can’t stand it. I like people to say what they mean & held responsible for it.

David Gill is the one opposing him,and we are all know what a fine upstanding character he is.

I can understand that, and more. It's just the way of the world, though. It was no criticism of you or your point of view, more of a general comment :)

Ah, then he can say what he wants as far as I am concerned. :)

That’s how I took it.
