Have to agree with that. Unless they think they can see us off for good - which is highly unlikely even if we get a CL ban - they’re wasting their time. Throwing shit at City could even backfire spectacularly because I’m sure there’s plenty of skeletons in the closet of a number of clubs which could turn out to be more serious than anything we’re being accused of. With millions of leaked e-mails and the hacker in custody, this could easily come on top for those who are driving this. Just to take one example, there are plenty of rumours abound about certain referees during our 2011-12 title-winning season, one of whom suddenly retired towards the end of that campaign to go and officiate in the States, whereas another was removed from one of our matches during the run-in (West Brom at home I think). They’re playing a risky game IMO.

Absolutely this ^. We know it, UEFA know it, and we know UEFA know it. Indeed, UEFA know we know they know.
It’s why I don’t think the powers that be at City are too concerned.
