PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[Centurions]

I thought it was part of the story how we disrespected Hughes that Mancini had been already consulting in the UAE.

Didn't at least one of them claim he was sat in a private box watching the last game?

I thought it was part of the story how we disrespected Hughes that Mancini had been already consulting in the UAE.

I seem to remember that was not true and a grovelling apology was issued (about him being at the game)

I still think all of this will get binned off in the off season, using the Euros as cover to turn it into chip paper as quickly as feasibly possible.

The hearing hasn't happened yet so there have been no hard arguments.

No indication at all that anything will happen this summer. It's likely that the hearing is in Autumn and the decision in 2025.

Read somewhere yesterday, maybe Orstein, that they're only just preparing witness statements.

We'll see, I suppose. One way or the other.

It would make sense for it to wrapped up in our favour in the close season (I've got my doubts about that) but the Euros wouldn't be the slightest distraction. Whichever way it goes this will be huge for a long time.

The most amusing thing for me is that people who laughed 15 years ago when they heard of City's plans to dominate are now crying about how unfair it all is.

I really REALLY enjoy that aspect of it all.

First they said money doesn't buy success, you can't buy class , you've got no history , now we're making history every season smashing long standing records along the way and as you said now it's unfair and no-one can compete with Pep , let's not forget they all said along with the media that Peps tactics wouldn't work in the Prem , now from the Prem to the national league Pep has changed the way football is played and viewed in this country , and let's not forget the media and rags telling us all that mourinho when he took over at the swamp had the edge over Pep due to his vast Prem experience

And a rabid dipper fan to boot.
A total **** from start to finish.

Rob ‘weaselly’ Beasley and Paul Smifff (with 3 ‘f’s). I can still hear their sneering voices…..
”£200k a week for Ya Ya Toure? Jose wouldn’t pay that!”
Pair of absolute cnuts

Paul Smith "they'll win nothing under Mancini". A few months later, Mancini guides City to a FA Cup win, Smith disappears into obscurity.

Remember when Summerbee was on Sky and said something along the lines of we are not far off United now and it won't be long before we are coming here and bossing games...and they all laughed at him

Never get tired of sharing this

A Brummie Chelsea fan and Smith looking like he’d been dug up from a grave for the show !

“City in the champions league? You’re having a laugh.” Alan Green.
How many years now, Alan? Eleven, I think. We are laughing, mate, winning it does that to us.

Next season will be the 14th on the trot.
