PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[wolviedinho]

Sky sports the other day reviewing the back pages with 2 journos, when talking about City, one of them described us as "arguably the biggest club in the world".
Now I'm not sure about that just yet, however it will infuriate the rags because their the self proclaimed biggest club in the world.

And therein lays the problem. They think by not acknowledging our success it will keep us down.

This biggest club is a no win claim anyway. How do you measure the definition? Past success only? Current success and current failure is not included? Let’s just all stay in a 90s time warp.

As of 2024 City are one of the big clubs in the game due to winning a shit load of trophies. We can’t take a fart without it becoming a social media obsession.

So although the enemy think they are putting us in our place they are actually aiding our rise.

He goes around saying you have to implement the rules but doesn’t understand that the rules need to be fair and logical, which they are not. Presumably the redshirts wrote his script for him.

And hopefully their influence will trigger his epitaph

How embarrassing for The Times…

Nothing embarrasses them these days. They have jumped the shark.

Thursday - Bernardo Silva looking at 100 years in Strangeways for menacingly holding a cup of tea.

He will join Kyle, in there for aggressive walking.

He will join Kyle, in there for aggressive walking.

I hope Kevin Horlock’s sending off for the same thing is time-barred.

I was thinking the same about Chelsea. They basically admitted their guilt under Abramovic and frankly have taken the absolute piss with their various dodges under new owners. Yet barely an eyebrow raised (because they’re not winning things)

and no follow-up on the writing-off of the £1.5bn 'loan' as RA exited - that surely became owner-investment?
I just don't understand how that did not immediately come under scrutiny under 'the rules'..?
