I have a red pal, very good job, intelligent bloke.
He came out with the same old shit, “you must be guilty because u got fined”. I explained that the fine was for non cooperation with uefa as they were leaking info and that we preferred to go straight to CAS so knew we would incur the fine”.
He went quiet … looked at me for 10 seconds and jusr replied , “bollocks”.
Ive had other people, again seemingly sensible people, say we must have bribed CAS. I mean … fuck me … they think we turned up at CAS with a suitcase of money.
So thats what we are up against. I think the whole thing has been a total smear campaign and the red shirts werent arsed if we are found guilty or not, its job already done
The reputational & image damage is incalculable, and it astonishes me that the club has been so passive, because the owners place such a high value on such things.
After Aguerooooooooo 93-20, we should’ve been everyone's second favourite club with young fans everywhere.
The coordinated campaign of 'Destroy City',instigated first by the rags and that bitter,vengeful bastard Ferguson and quickly jumped on by the Yank profiteers put paid to that.
The minute by minute drip drip drip of lies,misinformation,exaggeration and racism has poisoned the minds of the innocent and stupid alike, to the extent that the most successful team and sporting enterprise in the world is ridiculed and loathed in equal measure.
The 'lost opportunity cost' to City is incalculable and I, amongst thousands of others, hope that the club exact full retribution and recompense in what ever form they think is appropriate and however long it takes.
Fortunately the world is much bigger than our small broken island and the minds of the global population more open.
