Crackerjack idea.

If we are found guilty we'll be vilified, called cheats, corrupt etc.
If we are exonerated we'll be vilified, called cheats, corrupt etc.
The damage has already been done by Der Spiegel and the hateful eight who signed the letter sent to the FA, UEFA and the Premier League and exacerbated by the main stream media with their constant unfounded and unsubstantiated comments and innuendos.
If we are cleared of any wrongdoing any actions we take against the FA/PL/UEFA and the media will always be questioned with the "there was no smoke without fire" business. Just let's ensure the likes of Roan, Ronay, Liew, Harris, Lowton, Carragher etc have their media accreditation to Manchester City revoked and are banned from attending the Etihad sine die. That will show that despite whatever others may think of us, we will not be fucked over by the press and let them get away with it scot free ever again.
Ziegler jumped the shark when he believed that vid last summer and called it the biggest scandal in football. All without checking who funded the vid. or why they went to such lengths to conceal their identity. The vid itself was fundamentally flawed: the story was not new, it was covered a year previously in the Grauniad, the money was not suspect, it came from Etisalat, the mystery man was a well known broker.I have defended Ziegler before. He has led the way with leaks from the UEFA and PL investigations. They have all been legitimate news stories. If people leak stuff it will be reported. But that Foreign Office story is just bollocks. You are correct though. It confirms how low the media has sunk.
Pencils and cabbages at the ready.Crackerjack idea.

The best way getting through this is winning 5 in a row.It's a no win situation:
If we are found guilty we'll be vilified, called cheats, corrupt etc.

Once Pep leaves and we win less often, all will be well!If we were not successful, none of this would be an issue. The combination of success, rapid growth, playing style and accusation is absolutely toxic in a nation that despises winners, especially when they are brown.
