It's easy if you have no memory. Lying, blind, or mad at this point.

Are the list of things we have been "charged" with are actually true? Like did we ever get fined or charged for these or is it just good urban myths people say to sound good and prove how uefa hate us?
The only one we didn't get fined for is singing 'you're not incredible' - Hulk did complain (or his club did) but it was dismissed IIRC. Being late and throwing paper planes are absolutely genuine - we were fined for both. In case of being late, we were fined more than Porto were fined for racism.

We were certainly fined for being a minute late for the second half. I believe we were fined for the paper aeroplanes (as it's an offence to throw objects onto the field of play). We were also definitely reported by Porto for racist chanting after singing "You're not incredible" to Hulk but they threw that one out.Are the list of things we have been "charged" with are actually true?

That's fine if that's the case, proves my point a touch that people say the "you're not incredible" which really is irrelevant. In regards to the others then fair enough, I thought we was in this day and age where one person makes something up and everyone believes it. A bit like all the quotes from people you see on social media which were never said but people lap it up.

Well come on, I mean that's really serious. The sponsors might have been upset.

I take your point, but even if you ignore that, the remaining charges on our rap sheet - throwing bits of paper, for instance - do rather suggest that UEFA has either got a serious grudge against us to the point of victimisation or has got absolutely no common sense in terms of when it simply lets something go.
I'm inclined to the latter myself - they are (IMHO) a bunch of pompous pricks whose dignity has been offended and they aren't going to stand for it. (The insult, not the anthem.)

Anyone know what time we will find out?

Couldn't agree more, the being late to the pitch fine is laughable even more in context with other fines. "Throwing bits of paper" I agree is a touch harsh especially when we all know how it was however it could easily be twisted to objects and missiles being thrown onto the field of play. Doesn't make it right but I remember them corners being taken and they got pelted like mad with all the planes haha!
You're not incredible I am ignoring, Uefa can't help if Porto complained and common sense prevailed and no action was taken. Either way thanks for clarifying blue
