The Agenda (Merged)

Re: so this agenda thing.

Pudge you've lost me with both those pictures of sendings off

The first one was a last man foul so the referee had little choice

I can't quite remember the second yellow card for Zabba at the Nou Camp, but i guess once booked you are running a tight rope especially in such a heated game with a lot at stake

I still feel like we have a lot to learn in the competition, fouls are given for fuck all but the way we defend so aggresively and on the front foot looks like it works against us in the Champions League, although it works perfectly in the Premier League

Penalty given instead of a free kick.

Pique taking out Edin, no penalty is given.

Zabaleta sent off for questioning the decision of not awarding Dzeko a stonewall penalty.

Showcasing Barcelona played against 10 men on both ocassions last season, despite UEFA being "harsh" on them.

You've lost me by not commenting on the penalty pictures.

Zabaleta sent off for questioning the decision of not awarding Dzeko a stonewall penalty.

This is the kind of shit we really need to stop doing.

Let's hope we learn and don't get a man sent off for something so avoidable.

Do you ever find you have difficulty getting people to follow the point you're trying to make?

LOL. Sorry I got distracted. He was asked about Lampard loan. Said what City are doing with UAE sponsorships and owning other clubs stinks and is a ruse to get around FFP. It was his contemptuous tone that got to me I think.

UEFA Champions League Draw 2014 - 2015 Group Sta…: <a class="postlink" href="http://youtu.be/ekvg2X_pPjc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://youtu.be/ekvg2X_pPjc</a>

I remember watching the group stage draw a few months back and I could have sworn I saw Karl Heinz Reidle grab one ball and let it go before grabbing another when choosing which group to put us in.

When I heard he was involved in the draw again today I wanted to view it again to know if I had imagined it. The full video I found on YouTube has thrown up something very interesting indeed. We get drawn out just after 10 minutes but as Reidle is in the process of selecting the group for us this time the camara is on Txiki and the audience the whole time so you actually miss seeing it. I don't know if this is an official UEFA video of the draw but now it's got me really wondering.

Re: so this agenda thing.

I wouldn't trust Twattini and the UEFA reptiles further than I could spit them

Th e sudden appearance of FFP followed by the moving of the goalposts thereof and Twattini's horrendous "the FFP rules must be 'dynamic' says it all

I'm interested about the conduct of the UEFA 'draws' ... I wasn't initially suspicious but, over the year of our involvement in the CL ......a funny smell is wafting.....

why not show that actual removing of our ball today ?? Last season's ball handling on TV looked dodgy.......


In the context of the generally vicious anti City knee jerk reactions from the vested interests of the UEFA 'old boys' club can we be anything but suspicious?
