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

Didn’t the dippers escape punishment for this reason. They failed FFP but because they didn’t qualify they didn’t get punished ??

But we are not European royalty.

I’m looking for the Fawlty Towers Forum : )

You'll find it under Barcelona: Manuel knows nothing.

Whilst not disagreeing, I didn’t think that KDB was going to be anywhere near this level when we signed him..

He was the German league player of the year and miles and miles better than Grealish even then.

Anyway, back to CAS...

Sounds like we’ll know by the end of next week. Imagine how much we’ll be shitting it when the news drops.

What's happened to the CAS thread?

I'm just hoping we get an answer by the end of this week, and it can all be put to bed. Then we can move on, with a clear name hopefully.

Signed for Villa on a free.

Foden (20) Rodri (24) Bernardo (25)

Is already a better midfield than any other team has in England. Right now. Not even ‘could be’, it’s just currently world class.

Kev is 29 and he’ll be here until he’s 33. Gundogan is 29. Again, he’s not pacey, I can see him staying until he’s in his thirties.

The only midfield player we may need to sign in the next couple of years is a Fernandinho replacement. I don’t even think a signing is necessary; 5 players for 3 positions; 2 options in holding mid in Rodri and Gundogan, 4 options for the attacking mids with Bernardo, Phil, Kev and Gundo.

Jack G just doesn’t make sense - why sign him to replace Sane, one of the fastest wingers in world football? This summer we need a CB with a brain who can actually play football, a full back with a brain and a lightning fast forward to replace Sane. The midfield is fine even if we lose David.

Put Tommy Doyle in that mix

My journo mate has been asked to write an article on City and what it means for football/UEFA now that city have had their appeal upheld and all punishments have been dropped. The deadline for this article in next Thursday. Now, he said it’s likely that they have someone else working on a different angle so I’m not getting too giddy, but I thought the deadline was interesting. Maybe announcement end of next week?

The consensus seems to be end of next week, which would fit with your timeline.

Your mate is probably right though - I’d imagine they want to be on the front foot in covering all possible outcomes, so they’re ready to go whichever side of the argument CAS comes down on
