The Super League | FA + PL: New Charter & Fines | UEFA: Settlement

[doobyedoobye]

We had a statement on our site saying we were!

A cut and paste, all part of the ruse

 

[MillionMilesAway]

I'm certain of it. Every member of the cartel who went after us has lost their places of influence with Uefa.

Guess what, we never had any ;)

I saw Matt Law (Telegraph) wrote that his understanding was that Chelsea and City were given an ultimatum to join or be left behind.

The apology will have to be worldbeating, and even then the reputation of the club is up in smoke.

 

[WestGorton]

There is a light that never goes out

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

I don’t know what the game has been but these dice from city are fucking awesome !

 

[lcfc_chump]

So now what? Points deduction? Fines? Slap on the wrist?

Now you get improved terms in the revamped Champions League of course

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

ALL concerned should be fined of some sort...maggots!

You still here?

 

[Frenchti]

Congrats city, you did the right choice !

They tried to destroy the fabric of English football and did it in an underhanded way. No consultation, no presentation, nothing. We got a standard statement on the club's website in the dead of night quoting our rivals' owner. Nothing on Twitter because they knew it would create a storm. They didn't want to celebrate it because they knew it was unpopular, but they nevertheless pressed on with it.

If you were happy to join then are you not pissed off we've withdrawn? Or do you just let people you're in awe of abuse your good will?

In awe of? It's a fucking football club. I go to watch them every other week. There are people on here saying they are in years at this news. I'm level headed fella, you appear to be the one that holds the club in awe. To me they're just a football team, they don't fill a void in my life. I support them but for the love of God they're just a football team.

As for whole SL thing, if I'm being honest I didn't care about it. I've said on here many times I don't watch the CL games as it bores me and it's corrupt. I'm all for the PL and the domestic cups. All this would have been was another set of games I wouldn't watch.

I probably mentioned 300 pages ago.

IT’S NOT GONNA HAPPEN

Only 300 pages?

 

[Cityzen_89]

Both City & Chelsea are reportedly preparing to pull out of the ESL. Apparently we were the last to sign, & only did so for fear of being left behind, but after the huge backlash, both clubs are out.

I will decide how I feel about "us fearing being left behind" when I can look at Khaldoons face when apologising to the fans and seeing if he is sincere.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

So... are we kicking them out of the league then or what? FINISH THEM!

 

[MarsLlama]

I despise that horrible manchild... but I laughed.

 

[kaz7]

The reds twats have resigned from uefa , oops

I think we have played a blinder

 

[Utter bobbins]

Thank fuck!!! Whoever decided this was a good idea and signed us up to it should be sacked with immediate effect.

If it was the Sheik?

 

[Clevers]

Pep is the man... THE fucking man!

When he spoke today I bet the City board went white, sat with their head in their hands with a cold sweat and though “what the fuck have we done?!”

I bet the board knew exactly what he was doing.

 

[ninjamonkey]

The club doesn't get to go back to how they were last week after this. There has to be a fall guy here somebody has to take responsibility for almost destroying our club and tarnishing our name forever. Who is most likely to be that figure? soriano? khaldoon?

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Back to being UEFA's and Prem's whipping boys then.

Better than being raped by Barca and Real and finish 10th

 

[Carlos- the- jackal]

Told you this morning pal the momentum of this was far to strong for the club to ignore, when football fans mobilise they can get things done!

 

[dickie davies]

Soriano and Khaldoon should resign immediately for even dreaming that we should take part in this fiasco. They're not to be trusted.

We don't know if City have played a blinder
When UEFA had it in for us Khaldoon said there was the half of UEFA we got on with and the other half, (Gill et al) that we didn't
Now the red shirts have exposed themselves for what they are, their influence at UEFA is hugely diminished, where as, if we were in constant contact with UEFA throughout this process we are now the good guys in their eyes

Givover mate we have played a master stroke. Fuck reputation.
