They’l all still be there on Wednesday taking in the ‘grubby clubs’ best hospitality though won’t they ....when are City going to ban this vermin from the club ? It would certainly get the fans onside & rallying round .

Damn right.

Thats the whole point isn't it. A corrupt rule hiding under the name 'fair play' ran by a corrupt organisation that is only there to protect the elite mafia

And then you have that idiot from spain Tebas gloating about financial doping when he has the interests of real madrid at heart - a club doped by the state in its past. It is totally laughable

We will go to cas but we musnt accept a lower charge

Exactly we should take uefa to the cleaners, we have broke no laws or rules.

They have

Time to follow up the Liverpool hack with more aggression, we shouldn't have to suffer alone, YNWA? Yeah time to walk with us.

Thought there might have been a very public and very strong statement released by the club the lack of one doesn’t fill me with great hope. Can’t see what we are waiting for now.

It's very hard to be smart etc when our opponents keep moving the goal posts !

I hear you. I'm sure the club had their reasons for taking the course of action they did but I really do wish we'd contested the rules harder in the first place. I think FFP is total bullshit but we haven't been savvy enough about it. We broke the rules rather than contested them and the outcome was inevitable.

I hope, if we get that far, the Swiss Supreme Court is impartial.

Given that UEFA contracts all CL participants to use that particular Court in the event of a dispute with them (UEFA), I suspect it will be about as impartial as this Court.....

UEFA's handling of stolen goods needs investigating too, GPDR and all that. Take them all to court regardless of FFP stance. Rinse the ****s.

 

[kupest]

Do we have to follow UEFA FFP when we are banned? I am guessing its part of the penalty?

There was a very public and strong statement from them last night.

I think UEFA should be hoping the CAS throw the whole case out. I'm curious as to what the CAS will do. If City can prove they are innocent, then even accepting a fine at this point would be counter-intuitive. If they do manage to get even a 1 year ban through, then it will really get messy and costly too but if City win then they'll be well in profit at the end of it.

I expect it could come to that and the first course of action should be to immediately go after FFP itself getting that deemed as illegal business practice asap would be the quickest route to resolution. It would probably mean a season without CL football but one season out of the CL wouldn't be that bad especially if it's all expenses paid vacation from UEFA after the second court case aimed directly at UEFA themselves for loss of earning, damage to the club image etc. Then there should be several alongside that aimed at the press who have been used as instruments of evil in this operation from day one.

I hope I'm wrong but I don't think we've got it in us to drag this whole thing out. I think we'll sit back and accept this punishment, we've been a soft touch for as long as I can remember, can't see that suddenly changing.
