PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Keeper!]

Slott is not a fanboy in the pub. He is the public face of a multi billion pound organisation. I understand your point. I used to love the antics of Brian Clough back in the day. But this legal battle is a different context. Liverpool have behaved unethically by briefing the media against us for years. It could destroy our club.

Could but won't and they know it.

They are jealous, revel and rejoice in that.

Let them enjoy their 15 minutes because we will be back and better than ever.

One thing I will say about the last few weeks, it's been fucking awful, I thought when our cycle was coming to an end I would be ok and grateful for an incredible dream period of dominance and titles, I was wrong, I want more, far more and thankfully our execs are the same.

Come back stronger, better and the dippers and all are having it properly.

I don't know what evidence (if any!) the PL have got to support their claim that City have breached PL regulations 115 times over a period of god knows how many years but I'd be astonished, and actually delighted, if their evidence was nothing more that a series of Jamie Jackson's questions, jokes from players and managers and articles from English newspapers (or emails from German comics). No one who had ever dreamt of being a lawyer, let alone experienced KCs and retired judges, would take any of it seriously. So the main stream media can rant and roar all they like. We can't command them to like us but they can't do anything about us. City will be judged on hard evidence and nothing else. So, I think we should calm down a bit and not be so sensitive. Slot was good humoured and joking. And if he wasn't it doesn't matter. Sticks and stones and all that.

I hate to put a downer on what you say but sadly that can't be the case, this has gone on far too long and at enormous cost for both sides and caused enormous damage to us and the PL.

I do think we are innocent but the PL must have something to go this far.

Both sides needs this over ASAP.

And if what you say is remotely true the PL and Co will have their butts sued for 100s of millions from our execs, and they will be paying for our team rebuilds for the next century.

If we win our next two games, this season’s six-game slump (LLLLWW) would see us 2 points better off than last season’s (LLDDDD)

Two clean sheets and 16 goals against Forest and Palace and our GD will be the same too ;)

Context wise it's important to remind people this is largely media hysteria. The results have been spread across three competitions. But equally, the number of goals we're conceding and our inability to take chances is a worrying trend that wasn't there last season. We lost Rodri, lost at Wolves 2-1 in a game they had one shot on target and we had 8 from 23 shots in total. Lost to Arsenal in a game where we were toothless but they only had 2 shots on target before getting absolutely battered by Villa. We had some injuries, we'd lost Rodri to suspension but it was only the Villa game where we were absolutely battered.

That's not true this time around, yet two wins and it doesn't matter what's gone before!

You say that, but that was about the extent of what UEFA presented to CAS.

Kerkez from Bournemouth mate, decent left back 21 year old

Ah OK. Yes I rate this young man pretty highly and we could do much worse and at a decent price we may do the business.

Well lets see, as said if the evidence is bullsh1t the consequences will be enormous.

100%

That stadium should be bouncing tonight and the b xx players would feed off it.

One positive of the last month is it will toughen up a lot of people at the club and motivate even more and anyone not up for the fight, goodbye!

Agree totally. Problem is a 7.30 kick off rules out many who can’t get away from work before 6. I do know a few that can’t make it tonight. But hopefully we loud & proud will be there singing & cheering!!!

If they had something it would have been in the public domain by now.

Me too mate, he's contracted till 2028 but his market value is 20m, hes on 30k a week, only turned 21 last month, be interesting to see if Pep could improve him further, but looks a quality little player tbf, we need to look for a few cheap diamonds because there is some out there
