UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

[nmc]

Absolute bollocks, PSG have paid most of UEFA off & you know that, a to bit league with a club paying 100's of millions in wages not a chance they get round FFP

Your owner & his company have bribed the fucking world, the World Cup is just tip of the ice berg his PSG dealings are a joke

It will all come out you just wait bent as fuck 100%

I’m really not sure there’s much evidence of PSG bribing UEFA but I certainly think some figures at UEFA may have taken bribes as part of the Qatar World Cup bid - which like all other recent processes was fraught with corruption. I think PSG are probably aware of who at UEFA is compromised and may be taking advantage of the fact. That would certainly explain the recent process where a few leading figures quickly selected reverse gear. All conjecture though.

You see, it works both ways.

If you think what Panja writes for PSG is legit, you should think what is right about City is legit too. He got the very same source.

Maybe but 7m sounds nonsense to me. The whole FFP procedure and rules are flawed and the fact they got cleared and we didn't the blame should be directed at UEFA not PSG.. Thats what fans of other clubs do to us through their ignorance, we shouldn’t stoop to that.

Khelaifi is PSG chairman and UEFA executive committee member, the two are interlinked.

Two cheeks of the same well used arse.

And by proving that the process was flawed or corrupt the target will be those who have corrupted the process, for the bent officials not to get caught in the crossfire they have to acquiesce to our assertion that we have been targeted by a self protectionist cabal of rogues.

It amounts to the same thing bud.

No it doesn't. Ferran was ver careful yesterday to deny that we have a vendetta against UEFA . He has clearly been told by our lawyers that ALL we must do is show that the decision taken by AC is not justified by the facts and that the treatment City received was very different from that meted out to other clubs. The process was flawed and unfair, but if we start mouthing off that this was because corrupt officials are corrupt and are out to ruin City for the benefit of a cartel we'd better have cast iron documentary evidence or our whole appeal will be thrown out. CAS is concerned ONLY with one decision. Any case against FFP is for another time and place and then we MAY be able to make a case against a cartel.

Conn must think his readers are idiots.

He says it is interesting that Soriano says,

“The owner [Sheikh Mansour of Abu Dhabi] has not put any money in this club that has not been properly declared” ... when "Internal City emails published by Der Spiegel in November 2018, which prompted the CFCB investigation, did suggest that Mansour substantially paid the £67.5m sponsorship stated to be from the Abu Dhabi airline Etihad" when a couple of days ago he wrote that the UAE state covered the Etihad sponsorship.

Whatever City do or say will be criticised in some quarters.

Someone said the other day that Conn needs a leave of absence. He’s writing utter shite just now.

Not sure what Frankfurt’s beef with UEFA is, but I like the sentiment:

City will nver let us do that

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

City will nver let us do that

Its a bit crass, we can do better than that.

Don't get carried away with the PSG case which may well become part of the case in the Swiss courts. It's relevance to City's appeal is the the same member of the IC dealt with the two clubs in very different ways in almost identical circumstances and that this appears whimsical and shows the process is flawed. CAS is not trying PSG or any official for corruption which is not its remit.

UEFACKOFF... summat witty like that? Haha

I appreciate you meant to make a point about double standards being used to assess the same reporter’s articles about City and PSG, but just be careful you don’t fall in to the WUM pit whilst doing it.

Blues on here may sometimes be less than accommodating of more nuanced opinions from supporters of other clubs, and may go a bit too far in expressing their objections at times, but this is a City forum, so you should know that will be the potential treatment when coming on here, the same as for a City supporter going on to a PSG fan forum.

We’ll tidy things up if responses are OTT but you should also be careful not to intentionally instigate them with inflammatory posts like the original version of the above, as well.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
