Can see it being changed to a 1 year ban after we appeal and we'll accept that. Really can't see us wanting to drag it on and on by taking UEFA to the courts.

I think eufa have just poked a hornets nest this is going to be very interesting indeed.

Speculation and no way players have already made their minds but I see Sterling the one to leave

it’s complete and utter bollocks. Are we meant to believe that someone has gone in and canvassed the entire playing squad. And then leaked it the athletic.

*edit - agree about Sterling

No way, Gill and his cronies will introduce a new rule where to compete in the league etc, no money making friendlies allowed !

Its got fuck all to do with gill or uefa what we do with our free time.

What are the chances of titles being stripped?

 

[warpig]

Great no-one to play left wing with yrs of adjustments to peps style or inded anyone

Or we just buy another player and bed him in

Funny how UEFA will tell you whether a sponsorship deal is inflated and above market value but are nowhere to be seen when Coutinho is signing for Barcelona for £130m and Neymar is going for £200m.

This was somehow suggested as plausible by Paul Wilson in his article today on the potential ramifications/fallout with UEFA that could lead to its demise.

It makes no sense. Who are we possibly going to play them against? No one in England obviously, so then you have your pick of overseas clubs minus anyone good enough to get into the Champions or Europa Leagues? Oh you have to travel for it. People are going to buy tickets for this? Is someone going to televise it? Probably not so then you have half a share of the gate receipts? It's fantasy land.

If you believe reports, City turned down Ceferin's negotiated settlement which would have been a nominal sanction so why would we accept that? It would also open the way for Premier League action. I am not sure how real that is but it's something that the other Premier League clubs will be pushing for.

I don't know how true the ceferin reports are but a couple of months ago, the expectation was that City would escape without a significant sanction.
