Apologies cityxtra for nicking it but it's a belter.

So UEFA have not thrown in the towel, yet.

Theyre too hard faced to give a shit, in their minds they 'know' we are guilty.

I wouldn't be so sure. The Sun have a couple of massive suits against them at moment.

Jonny Depp and the wife beating accusation.

There is also one from United when Woodward house was attacked and a photographer just happened to be there.

I have to say your post is appalling. The discussion to this point has been intellectual and interesting and you have brought it down to this piece of illiterate nonsense.


Don't you know it should be be " who gives a qfuck?" with a question mark on the end?

Punctuation is everything on this forum

:-)

It was rhetorical so I am not sure that justifies a question mark?

 

[BringBackSwales]

Perhaps those who live and work in that Country.

I'm sure if a misspelling or wrong pronunciation of "England" occured many would complain.

Unfortunately I was responsible for the initial mistake and I have posted my regret.

I still don’t give a qfuck

i guess we can expect a string of stories against us in the media, on the run in to the heavyweight championship fight of the century . I expect the dippers ,scum and Arse PR departments will be working overtime .

I hope that they do as it will help City’s case regarding undue reputation damages and leaks. There’s some with press links on here suggesting that a gagging order has gone out from media bosses. It could have come from either side but suspect from our rivals. I expect no stories.

Feel free to call me a fool but I believe Soriano 100% when he said these allegations are completely baseless. The man was very convincing

Wanna buy a ticket for a Spanair flight to Barcelona?

I am not sure about back to 2008 because I think Sheikh Mansour and the CFG are here for the long haul but I agree that a defeat would be catastrophic for our reputation and our senior management team. Given our bullish statements it would be the end for Soriano and possibly even Khaldoon. That would probably hasten Pep's departure. In addition to this any other senior staff linked to the Der Spiegel emails would be finished. It doesn't bear thinking about.
On the other hand a victory would be epic and devastating for our long list of enemies. It really is "all or nothing."

A ban would be terrible for short term planning. This may affect Pep's commitment as well as other senior players. However, there is no chance this will affect Soriano's position. It certainly won't affect Khladoon's position. This whole situation is a boil on his arse compared his day job as CEO of Mubadala and other senior UAE positions he holds.

As for those execs who have had emails hacked, Simon Pearce has had far worse emails hacked re UAE's political PR/influence which hasn't affected his position managing the UAE's reputation overseas.

A ban would be terrible

Just stop there.

Interesting that this has not yet been reported on the Grauniad, may be they are realising their reporting has been as accurate as Cadwalledr's on vote leave.

Their waiting for instructions from UEFA.

I believed the chairman 100% and will still think we’re seen as a soft touch for cash should they decide we are guilty. As a club we will be affected by what they decide in the future but I’ll still love us.
