Yes, but he is hardly devoid of agency.

Absolutely

interesting.
you will do what you want

and yet you tell everyone else to stop doing what they want.

It's funny that he had a pop at me the other week for posting negative "info" - albeit that it was probably bollocks - and now he's having a pop because I posted an article that, for a change for our media, is positive. While he's right that none of us have the full inside track that also applies to him too, yet he's telling us that we're more likely to be found guilty than not. Which - unless he's been tipped off about the verdict - is based on absolutely fuck-all.

Boozy **** Booz Allen approves of this post.

Perhaps he's basing it on how it went with the UEFA case?

Since the Leicester reversal it seems the legal yes men have been replaced by their legal first team.
Years of control over targeted rule making has made the case for the city side leaving traceability everywhere that they still think can be brushed under the carpet.
Certainly a compliant media helps but it does seem that the PL is relying too much on the media reporting a public vote of guilty to prove that black is white.
Whether City have been 100 percent careful to obey only the badly written biased rules is debatable but overall I think we should not worry too much.
Years of trying to attack the city business plan and mainly failing must make a trend analysis obvious (fingers crossed).

That bit in bold, I really like.
I might borrow that for the next time I’m educating my brother in law. (Liverpool fan)

I think there's a subtle difference in that UEFA's panel was clearly biased - and to give them a tiny bit of credit they perhaps had not much alternative but to find us guilty when we stopped co-operating - whereas the panel in this case ought to be truly independent to the point that it could be argued that they're equivalent to CAS

I think they are exactly what I said they were - evidence and information that is inconsistent with a worst case outcome. Personally do not agree they are all nothing - a £400m stadium expenditure, a clean audit in December (when not required until March) and a few other things are exactly what people should take them for, not conclusive but not nothing either. Masters giving an interview wouldn’t be at that level if that’s what you mean.

So cautious optimism then :)
