PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

I know it won't happen but we should do the absolute minimum with the media and EPL officials etc, give them shite food, and ignore them, and treat them like they treat us...
Starting this weekend. The nerve of these low life's. The city press team need to be ruthless. We have nothing to lose.
 
Honestly, I think we’re on a hiding to nothing with this ‘independent’ commission. I think we’ll be found guilty no matter what evidence we can produce and that they’ll hit us hard with the punishments. We’ll challenge it in the courts which is where we’ll ultimately be victorious, as in, we get to stay in the league. Lots of damage will already have been done though. We’ll have missed out on big players and our name will have been dragged through the mud for several years.
 
Rousing, but disturbingly defeatist at the same time Lav.

I'm convinced that whoever is actually behind all this will not stop until they get something to stick.

That's why I honestly think that they'll be aiming to come down on City like a ton of bricks, even if there's only one charged proved.

We must not ignore the possibility that the owners are bent and have been dodging responsibility.

Like it or not, although we don't want to even entertain that possibility, if they have knowingly broken rules, they will deserve punishment. The same applies to every club.

It's us punters who suffer the most - genuine fans who won't want or be able to just shrug their shoulders and move on to the next new toy.

The ball is in Khaldoon's court. It's time for another fight. If we win, we can but hope that it sees the end of the morally bankrupt Premier League, and a change of structure.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
 
Khaldoon will wait for his moment, this is not that time
Really!? When do you think would be, in another week or two when the media have ripped us to bits and all the fans have is a short statement on the clubs website? hardly churchillian rousing of our support to galvanise us against this continuing shite is it. Plus pep will cop for the full force in every presser, that isn’t fair.
 
Yeah I'm pretty sure. Pearce detailed exactly how they were arranging it in the emails. CAS decided UEFA didn't have proof because they couldn't prove Pearce was lying when his testimony contradicted it. They ruled Pearce's account was "not incredible". If you remember at the time Stefan thought this was an incredibly risky and ethically dubious move by City but they got away with it.

What happened and what UEFA could prove are not necessarily the same thing and IMO it's very foolish to assume that because UEFA couldn't prove something or the CAS panel split 2/1 on something, that the Premier League can't prove it or can't convince the new panel to reach a different conclusion.
Don't remember all that, tbh, but it could have been that way. All I remember is this:
