I reckon you might only have to wait until Erling does his first interview to hear such tales!

Seems to me,that the last couple of weeks the directors etc have at last decided to come out fighting,long overdue. Will be interesting to hear khaldoons year end interview.
The difference is our yank owners are not football competitors.As he points out tonight, we are partly "yank" owned ourselves.
CAS were scathing on this subject but, of course, the media just ignored what they said.It's incredible that some so-called journalists are happy to believe that for 14 years scores of auditors from independent firms have willingly signed off false accounts, that many of our sponsors have committed fraud, that all the clubs' senior hierarchy, Pep, Soriano Khaldoon, the whole lot, have all repeatedly lied about our finances, that we have bribed three judges at CAS to make a dishonest decision, that the officals at UEFA (proven to be corrupt already) have been honest in their dealings with City. They are happy to accept this incredible sequence of events, this grand conspiracy involving hundreds of people, rather than the overwhelming evidence which shows City have done nothing wrong. I know we are living in the post-truth age but surely this is all a bit of a stretch.
Yeah. The German judge was a friend of Bayern and voted against us on every item. His junior in the law firm where they worked wrote a piece afterwards “proving“ that we had breached. He then had the cheek to say he was not influenced by his boss, ”entirely independent” was the phrase he used.Erm we only needed to bribe 2 judges at CAS.
Facts mate facts :-)
The liars will be wondering, though…….The only thing missing from that statement from Ferran is "And anyone who prints/broadcasts any different better have good legal representation."
Jordan missed the point. Under the PL rules, there can be no appeal to CAS. That was part of our point in the recent hearing in the High Court. We contended that the “football experts” who were to assess the case were not independent, so they had to be replaced given there is no appeal.He almost gets me calling in he does my head in that much. Making up words that the idiot co-presenters think are genius.
They were talking about Everton earlier and he made a suggestion they could just go to CAS to overturn any PL or FA fine. Clearly a dig at us. For someone so well read, I am surprised he would think CAS is corrupt but UEFA or any other body is impartial. And furthermore, can he not see what our fine from CAS related to, and how logical it was for City not to play ball given the evidence of corruption.
He needs someone to fucking slap him. I wish Trevor Sinclair would let me script a response for him. Just can't compete with Jordan's ego.
