PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[dickie davies]

When we get proven innocent then we can come out and let them all know what witch hunt it was by certain clubs and the media were utter one eyed cunts

We won't be proven innocent
The charges will be unproven
There is a difference

Got the scarf that they gave out to everyone that day somewhere.

It was a red one as I was in the wrong end, but still....

What I most remember about that day was that both teams agreed to not have a sponsors name on their shirts, to mark the occasion.
Then, out comes the GPC, in full chewing gum mode, as described, alongside Sven and the players, all holding hands with a child. City players had kids with the rags away kit whist the home side obviously had them in a home kit.
Never one to miss an opportunity, every child had a kit with AIG emblazoned on the front. Really got to me did that and, truth be told, still does..

And they had huge tributes over the front of their store windows at Old Trafford with AIG plastered all over the tributes. Laughable if it wasn't so sad.

Just contacted the BBC to ask them for the source of Dan Roan’s quote "no conclusive evidence that they disguised funding from their owner as sponsorship" - because I can’t find that in the 93 page CAS Summary. I suspect the arse made it up.

It stood out a mile……..


Like a vile but clever marketing stunt.

There’s going to be a lot of people with egg on their faces very soon.

Rolf or Chopper?

Anita or Bomber?

Being a journalist and daring to publicly look down that rabbit hole would see you:

Banned from any events/press conferences involving the rags, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal and potentially others. Damaging your ability to grow, network and report.

Never invited onto Sky Sports, Talksport, any BBC media to present the "other" side.

You'd be left with writing stories on what Dickie Masters would call "smaller" clubs and relying on social media to share content. And we all know what a cesspit social media is.

Unfortunately, we're in the clickbait era. Journalism is dead.

Fanning the flames of CHEATING CITY and pandering to the red shirts for ad revenue is what the industry has become.

Maybe one of them coming close to retirement will be brave/smart enough to write the alternate view and take a nice payoff into the sunset!
past journalists - now sensationalists

So that means we’re innocent.
