I think this is worse than our relegations. Then we maintained our honour. Irrespective of the appeal outcome this has undermined the honour of our club. Not sure how we ever get it back. We probably shouldn’t care how we are viewed but every achievement we have and may have will be sullied by this. Shit situation for us as fans especially, we suffer most imho.
Are United fans embarrassed by winning things by ridiculous extra time, penalties, disallowed goals etc? Course they aren't, why should we give a fuck about whether some Scouse vermin thinking signing some so slightly above average full back is financially doping football. Grow a pair.
 
Yes, I think it’s probably a bit fanciful, and perhaps not really helpful, to think that we’re completely innocent here. There has undoubtedly been some creative accounting going on, but then find me a major corporation that doesn’t. Google, Amazon, Manchester fucking United, they’re all at it. It’s just absurd that we operate in perhaps the only industry in the world where it’s deemed more of a crime to invest in your company, rather than avoiding paying tax out of it. Mad world.

There is creative accounting to move around FFP.

FFP was designed to stop us.

The club know it. So do most with a brain.

We have no doubt broken UEFA rules and that is why we are going after the process and the perpetrators.

No I’m not having that mate. Anything we’ve won has been because we’ve been the best side playing the best football, end of. You think hacking our scouting database is fucking honourable? You think smashing out coach up was fucking honourable?
And if, if we cooked the books a little, we did it to circumnavigate protectionist rules brought in purely to protect the so called elite by stopping our owners investing in our football club. Honour? do me a fucking favour

Absolute tripe mate. Utter tripe from start to finish.

City should research these guys. An American would be good for us.
