PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[bobbyowenquiff]

Mourinho is without question one of the great managers.

His time at Porto and Chelsea ( first) were incredible, he was charismatic, flamboyant and dare I say the nearest thing to Brian Clough I have seen. His players worshiped him and would literally die for him, his teams were exciting to watch.

But something changed, some say he has never got over the death of his father, or was it he started to believe his own hype?

Whatever it was it spoilt and destroyed him, he has become so anti football as a coach, hateful, spiteful etc.

Yet when he is not working as a coach and makes appearances as a pundit, that same flamboyant, charming character reappears with incredible knowledge of the game and he is box office and a pleasure to listen to.

The difference is that Clough's teams played honest attractive football and Mourhino's teams (mostly)) played dishonest anti-football. Both were flamboyant I suppose but only one of them was a decent human being.

Seems so. Wait a few days though and someone will probably hear a whisper while they’re queuing up in the butchers that were ok again and all will be tickety boo

Surely a butchers would involve seeing something not hearing something?
On the other hand, if someone had picked up the dog and bone and he’d overheard we were about to be boracic lint, it would likely be some septic tanks telling pork pies…….

Yeah, put some meat on the bones

Don't mince your words

What is Cheesy saying lads/lasses?

I have heard from Ian Cheeseman and he says he actually had a conversation with someone and he asked the question " how would you feel if we were deducted 40 points." He is in the dark as is everyone else and does not expect a conclusion for many months.

Clough was deeply flawed however far more relatable and likeable than PEG

Seems I must have offended someone’s sensibilities as I’ve had a post deleted. Would have to be a serious snowflake to be upset by it but that’s the world we live in now.

I feel obliged to point out that this thread is concerned with the charges laid against City and PEG, or even Brian Clough are not relevant.

Depends when he tweeted it I suppose. The info I got at the time - not from Cheesy - suggested the staff were told sometime on the Friday afternoon before the Monday morning announcement. If he tweeted it around that time on the same day then it’s a fair bet that he was told by someone at the club. If he tweeted it a day or two before that then perhaps he’d taken a punt.

CAS was a cinch to look

The treble he won with Inter Milan is one of the greatest footballing achievements ever witnessed.
