PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

it'll be a while before we hear anything yet. And even then I think it'll only come out because it's been leaked and their hands have been forced.

Grealish spills the beans in the pub to a load of fans while getting a round in.

The **** lives in Solihull, which is one of the most sinfully dull places in Christendom.

My Dad lives in Solihull. To be fair he is pretty dull. Nice house though

Yeah generally speaking Solihull is one of the nicer parts of Brum

Cliff is a faintly Musk-ish figure, who appears to be fond of shouting the odds and calling the shots. He tells the other 19 Premier League clubs what is legal and what is illegal

Which he was demonstrably correct about.

Hairy Sack?

More like Hairy Slag.

I’m sure it is. It’s a well to do place, but it has zero personality.

Once again I've had ignoramouses giving me sh*t about 115 today - including one Dipper Fan, one Rag Fan and a Portsmouth Fan - under the f**kin Stretford End too at an Educational Event I was partaking in for underprivilged kiddies - so couldn't retaliate in the appropriate manner...

I think Solihull means Muddy Hill or Pigswill Hill

goldbridge is brilliant at what he does - entertaining his audience (be it mostly united’s armchair worldwide fanbase or other people who believe they are watching a guy get angry at united being shit). he has created this alan partridge type persona and literally given himself a new name to do so. His real identity, his kids, his wife he doesn't share any of that.

its no coincidence AFTV get the best viewing figures - they run a colourful gammet of made up characters and encourage them to have catchphrases/patois whatever and say ludicrous barely believable opinions. arsenal being shit makes for more entertaining programming.

city by comparison have basically no youtubers of any note that are worth watching if you arent a fan of city - mostly ordinary manchester based fans giving boring sensible opinions.

the most famous is probably Buvey who has developed more of a fan base by saying daft crap and winding up the united, liverpool and chelsea fans on the fan channel watchalongs. hes from bristol ffs.

they are all basically just TV shows. stop getting upset about what they are actually saying. if you do you are lost in the world of social media which only cares about clicks and viewership.

speak to real people out and about. they dont hate city, in fact they are indifferent just like we used to be about arsenal and liverpool before the last 10-15 years of twitter happened.

Each to their own but he’s a fucking knob. Give me boring boring City folk any day over pricks like this and all the other shouty know nowt big mouthed bellends that infest social media.

You've missed the point. You're now having a hostile conversation in place of a previously cordial/friendly one, for nothing you have personally done. If you enjoy now having to use more 'firepower' in your football chats with friends and colleagues then good for you I guess, but it shouldn't come as a shock to you that it's not a sentiment shared by all.

How is it 'previously friendly' if they were shitting on your club? You don't need 'friends' like that lmao. You think they aren't using firepower by doing this? Football is tribalistic, no one's gonna have mercy on you.

So today summarized:

- Appears journalists like Holt are getting their football has been defeated articles in order
- City's head staff supposedly told to be at CFA HQ today
- Sky briefing their pundits to play it safe 'sticking to the facts'
- Discussing over Mark Goldbridge

Missed out?

He's a wind-up merchant who makes fortune from clickbaiting. Don't give him views.

People have the tipple of their choice ready to go.

(Bottle of cheapo Bubbly in fridge, in my case - went in on sunday night)

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Dinner.

I'd be surprised if he knew what I had for my dinner, as I did not post it on here.

 

[wolviedinho]

Fucking hell. Knew this week would be interesting.

If this is the start of people losing their minds before any official word, we are in for weeks of fun.

The crying has just begun.

This thread tho:

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

It was this but that did it for me, totally bias and framing Simon Cliff as a baddy:

"
Judging by the sheer grandiosity of his pronouncements, City’s general counsel, Simon Cliff, seems to believe he actually runs English football now. Maybe he actually does run English football. He certainly seems to have Richard Masters, the Premier League’s rather beleaguered chief executive, right where he wants him.
Cliff is a faintly Musk-ish figure, who appears to be fond of shouting the odds and calling the shots. He tells the other 19 Premier League clubs what is legal and what is illegal and when to fall in line and when to disobey. The impression he gives is very much that City run English football now."

All I remember Simon Cliff stating was that City had won the APT case not the Premier League, (which Masters was claiming). Simon Cliff has since been proven to be right on this point.

That line about Simon Cliff's letter to other Club Directors can only have been fed to Holt by a rival Club Director or someone else who has spoken to a Club Director. My money is on that Club Director being Daniel Levy.

 

[Nevizade]

Yeah generally speaking Solihull is one of the nicer parts of Brum

There's a decent chippy there as well

 

[burning blue soul]

Just for balance, has anyone seen a report, article, or tweet that the prem have won?
Even something intimated vaguely?
