PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[LangleyBlue1970]

Any early team news out yet?

Pannick’s upfront. Hes about to go in on them Haaland style. They’re fucked.

I'm not really thinking about fans of rival clubs as they don't matter but more about the club brand. Currently it's a constant stream of negativity aimed at us and I'd like to see a response (unofficially of course) to at least push back.against it.

thats not answering the question tho, what would it change? If people have made up their minds us pushing back wont change that and in terms of the clubs brand, we were the most watched club across the world last year, we had record breaking crowds at our pre season friendlies, our last 3 shirts have sold in record breaking numbers, i think the club brand is doing okay to be fair.

Had a largely social media free past few days, but now I'm back in the office and back to it. Just listened to Pep's comments and he really stuck it to them, I fucking love that bald fraud. The BBC finally publish the 115 charges in detail, so maybe people will realise now it's a group of charges multiplied over several years.

Hopefully things conclude quickly. I can't see it being any different to CAS in terms of there being a general suspicion and motive to punish us but in legal terms there being insufficient evidence to successfully conclude we have done anything to break the rules. Lack of cooperation is always likely to bring some sort of charge, but presumably a fine as opposed to points deduction.

We'll see.

The negativity will stop when we stop winning the league regularly and not a second sooner. Personally don’t think we can do much if anything about it.

No it won't I agree. What it would do if the club put some things out is even things up a bit as it seems like our board are content to take all the shite thrown at us without responding.

We tried to get this all to play out behind closed doors to avoid the noise from the media and other clubs, but weren't successful. There's no point busying ourselves with worrying what other people are saying, the best way to answer them is to win this case and then we can release a really punchy statement. I cannot wait for Pep's conference when that result is announced. He is going to unleash an absolute torrent.

I've still no idea why the club isn't putting stuff out to friendlier sources as we seem to accept leaks from the opposition camp without responding. It's completely one way traffic and a free hit for all concerned.

We’d be accused of leaking information!!!

people dont hate the none successful as they are not seen as a threat unless they are part of the red cartel and in that case success has nothing to do with it they are just arseholes.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Spot on this

The outcome needs to be one where they (the cartel) are rendered absolutely impotent.

They cannot be left n a position where they can continue onto 'next steps' - as they will with further changes targeted at us and specifically at our owners

"Once and for all"

When this is done, it will be the final penny dropped.

City are the masters of the Universe.

They are Juventus, in a country where bribery and corruption is second nature.

True
