Read my post and compare the reported facts by several reputable newspapers (Le Monde) with the article written by the infamous panja (since when has he become the voice of truth) ? The guy is trolling your club today again:


And i had cleared the information before but Nasser Al Khelaifi didn't get elected by UEFA. He got elected by ECA (the clubs) to represent them at the UEFA committee after Arsenal guy left his spot vacant by going to Milan AC.

He’d know all about leaks... wouldn’t he. Sounds like he’s got a direct line into David Gill.

Couple of things. I don't believe CAS will be interested in the accounting side of things. All they'll be looking at is whether UEFA correctly followed its own procedures, whether we had a fair crack of the whip and, they did, whether our punishment was reasonable.
Second, I'd imagine City wouldn't bring that up as it was a leaked document, so they could hardly complain about hacked and leaked documents being used to prosecute them but use one in their defence. Its not their document to use anyway.

I agree that CAS may not be interested in accounting side of things.
But surely if they were aware that the sponsorship totally met the FIFA and accounting rules that could subconsciously influence them to our advantage.
However given the EC- ADUG - Etihad money flow I think we have lost that potential leverage.

Yeah. He decided to lower by 37% the contracts which has forced his team to sell all his bench and buy finished players on free (Alves, Buffon).

Wonder if UEFA had forced City to devaluate the contracts by 37% and sell some bench players, you would feel like Sheik Mansour is ruling the game.

I was not alluding to that, as well you know.
