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

Just to clarify. We've been cleared, we know we've been cleared, but we can't guarantee we've been cleared because we don't know we've been cleared but we have been cleared, we just don't know it yet.

Does that sum it up?

Yes it's clear.

My memory's not what it was, but I thought Doris WAS the tea lady, but Mancini thought she was a c**t, so she got demoted to cleaner.

Christ. It must be like Game of Thrones at City.

Der Spiegel's reputation has been battered in recent years. I know it was being investigated for fabricating stories and its Editor quit but what was the outcome of the inquiry into that scandal? City being cleared will not help their reputation either. I don't know the politics in Germany very well but Der Spiegel is generally left wing isn't it so it would make an unlikely ally of Bayern Munich under its present leadership. I am also looking forward to your post.

don’t think this will damage their reputation too much, they’ve only published the emails which by all accounts are genuine but taken out of context

I have no problem with Der Spiegel reporting on Football Leaks documents.

My problem is they are putting their own bias into it. They talk about fraud and stuff like that when they accuse City or PSG of having inflated contracts. It is not a fraud and there is nothing breaking the law here.

At best, you could say they tried to circumvent the rules by using a loophole.

Two years in a row, Barça and Juventus are going for those inflated swap deals (Pjanic-Arthur lately) to make a quick income before the end of the season. It is against the spirit of the FFP law as they say but it is legal and no one is concerned about it.

Whatever happened to that really insightful ITK called Adi or Adie from a few years ago?
Think he was based in the Middle East?

Ajay, not seen him in here for ages

You might be thinking of Ajay. Some people on here thought he was ITK but I thought he was just a WUM. Then he disappeared from BM.

Bayern aren't bothered because they have achieved their aim...to damage City's reputation for the last two years. The almost certainly knew we were innocent all along but were happy to shit stir. They are the most classless club in Europe.

More than Liverpool?

He was subject of a witch hunt

God, no. About the same.

He was neither. He was a really nice bloke who had the worst insider knowledge ever. He was worse than flipping a coin. I think he appeared on a MCFC video about fans abroad.

Think he got one of his early calls spot on and then lived off of that for a while. He seemed to really let criticism get to him which raised the temperature further, whereas other ITKs I've seen just ignore it.

I loved him he was hilarious definitely not ITK.

Well he was a witch

Ajay's "He said yes' post is surely one of the most memorable in Bluemoon history. Ahhh, the good old days...

Off the pitch they're worse, fans wise I think not so much.

 

[Robanompivenov]

He's either thick as mince or wumming. I'm going for the former. He really should be writing for one of those 'Shock transfer news about City target' online click-bait sites.

Thick, wumming and a racist.

Little to confirm either way but what is out there seems to indicate we’ve won.

-Cheesy and Sinclair’s Tweets saying exonerated
-The usual suspects who hate us in the press are silent and some even sulking
-Pep’s confidence yesterday
-The general silence from most quarters
-De Bruyne’s agent saying he’s happy, several weeks ago KDB said he’d consider his future if upheld
-PB and another poster have both heard HH S. Mohammed gave evidence in person, that it was him that sent the money, which clears us
-Whispers of high level transfers going ahead and extensions to key players
-General confidence from City and I truly believe if we’d lost they’d be leaking it to soften the blow on Monday

Thank you. The only one of these I feel is not worth much is the last. I think if City knew they'd lost the club would still come out fighting and insist they'd done nothing wrong.
