️Former England boss, Sam Allardyce on ManCity’s 115 charges:

| “It seems like it boils down to three counts. What staggers me is how far they've gone back, I don't think the tax man's allowed to go back that far, is he?

| “I might be wrong because I'm not a tax expert, but if it happened 10 years ago, they should have been brought to task 10 years ago - not now. That was then, this is now. You couldn't get anything to court now 10 years on if you wanted it, so why are they allowed to go beyond that.”

| "If it's on the three counts, then possibly 10 points, maybe 12, if it's really big, maybe 15. People are talking about relegation, but if it’s just boiling down to those three, then it's a point deduction, and they can live with that fine and will get on with it.

| “Everybody will say it won't be enough, and they (City) should be relegated. We won't really understand it because they won't release exactly what's happened behind the scenes.

| “If there's no appeal after that and Man City have to take it on the chin, they will get on with it. If there's another appeal avenue, then Man City will exploit it if they're unhappy with the outcome because that’s their right.”

I saw this yesterday and was wondering when BFS suddenly became so sensible. Maybe he’s after a job at the Club ?

Or what?

I think that is naive. It might slowly fizzle out to a lower level, but won't stop.

But if we are hopefully cleared, I won't really care about the innuendo. I already don’t.

I am not talking about lower level, mainstream media outlets are the issue.

Perhaps as things stand the red clubs can give "incentives" to vote things through whereas City don't coupled with if the reds get their money back by eliminating City they can give lower clubs more in "incentives".

Heard the podcast the other day. It’s called Tippy Tappy football podcast. Natalie Pike presents with Sam. They had Michael Gray on as well. Natalie didn’t give her opinions due to bias but the other 2 was refreshing to hear them sticking up for us. It’s obvious but it boils down to pure jealousy , like they said. Gray was very complementary saying on how impressive the set up is and what the owners have done to the area .

Just noticed someone’s posted the said podcast
