Someone should have decked him.

Couldn't do much damage to that nose

Again, I agree. That's the paradox I am failing to understand.

How can the apply IAS 24 and come up with a different answer to our own independent accountants?

Because they want to.
I am told by ppl more knowledgeable than me that there is some wriggle room in IAS24.

The witch hunt is mad. The media want us to be guilty so badly that they cant wait for a verdict.

We will be guilty no matter what the outcome now. But F**K em. We are rich as F**K and going nowhere, sorry.

 

[Tracking back]

don't see it myself ??

the media and sky and BT are running the race for 5th place already and got man city out of europe without a fair hearing

Good.

I'm glad the broadcasting media are running the race for fifth place in the premier league in hope they can shoehorn the rags into the champions league.

That illustrates perfectly how UEFA are being used as a pawn by the established clubs to keep us out of their competition.

It also highlights just how shite the rags have become and their only hope of qualifying for the champions league is to scrape through to top five.

Am I sick ? I want the rags to be fifth and their 'future' be in the hands of City/UEFA/CAS and whether we get banned from CL or not, only for us to be given a reprieve at the 11th hour and sit back and watch those rags in complete melt down !

I'm of the "do not say" persuasion, the conciliatory tone with UEFA is not promising, they are one and the same beast.

I hope he's right because that will go down in infamy if we don't comprehensively win.

They were trying to get a City fan to do an interview with them this afternoon, I hope no one gave them the time of day.

Just saw a fan interviewed on the BBC, he said that he'd like to see City win the Champions League just so that the trophy can be dropped off the top deck of the bus - absolutely cracked me up!

 

[cjn]

You are delightfuly naive,no offence meant,it was 3 days "late" because he had to take legal advice

When you pay as much as we do for lawyers they work quickly. I would be shocked if they were the hold up here considering he's mostly just restated and fleshed out the statement put out on Friday evening.

 

[lonestay]

The time scale of all being sorted out by the summer, on the surface looks impossible unless of course we have a bloody big ace up our sleeve .

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

You don't understand football or business.

He clearly doesn't have a Scooby!
