Where is the moral high ground when the only choices appear to be get in bed with UEFA or get in bed with the cartel? No one supported us when we had our battle with UEFA even when the evidence of corruption was "clear and organised." Most clubs couldn't wait to dance on our graves. Even after we won at CAS we were still derided. Perhaps we could have tried to sit on the fence on this one but we still would have been slaughtered. We will never get goodwill from the "footballing public" They have hated us since we had success with foreign owners.Yes - this seems like a fantastic opportunity for City to win some friends & goodwill from the footballing public. Take the high moral ground.
I can only think that our owners are scared that if Utd et al come to a compromise (some might say "blackmail") with UEFA, and we're not "in the room where it happens" then we'll find ourselves fucked-over big-time.
Especially as UEFA are hardly our friends either.
To be fair to the club for a moment, I do feel we've been put in a difficult position.
