As has been said previously - the process is the punishment. The relentless media attacks on our club have been carefully orchestrated by the PL. they know we have done nothing wrong but this whole exercise was designed to tarnish our club and its achievements. When we are cleared it will be presented as a technicality and our guilt assumed by the masses. Job done.
Unfortunately correcto.
Even peeps with no dog in the fight, and no interest in football or sport, open conversations with "what aboot those 100s of charges for cheating".
Nowadays I only respond with "wait and see" as I have neither the time nor inclination to inform their minds.
Fortunately our exponentially expanding young, and increasingly international fans, are only interested in our winning football style, along with Braut & Jack.

In time, as City's supremacy & pre eminence becomes a more powerful influence than the bozo shit we've contended with in the last decade +, attitudes will change amongst the multitudes who weren't born when the red cartel were corrupting their way through the early days of Sly & the PL, and the era of 'Destroy City'.
The sun lit uplands of glorious supremacy are glowing in the distance for City and the only question being asked will be "were you at York" !!

Oh, Gundog went to Barca
and had a liccle look,
They said they couldn't keep him, his missus said thank fuck.
They got onto the blower
and said the past is past,
Pep said YES i like it
lets all meet at Tast !!
To the tune and rhythm of ' My old man's a recycling operative' !!
Perhaps the purpose of the PL witch-hunt is just to damage City. UEFA had no evidence. They were bluffing and tried to get City to settle. It was political. They wanted to be seen to be doing something. Perhaps the PL have made the same mistake. Masters has nothing on his CV which suggests he has any skills to be a CEO of the PL. He is just another bluffer.
