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

Conn has a couple of fans on this thread but clearly the vast majority can't stand this arse licking toady.

I've been thinking of why he is a self-proclaimed City fan but seemingly hates every aspect of Manchester City. Partly I think he is pandering to his left / liberal readership on The Guardian who hate perceived big business but also I reckon he is trying to ingratiate himself with supporters of the recently deposed 'big' clubs as there are so many of them. Therefore he presents himself as a City fan they can appreciate...happy to support the club winning fuck all, cups for cock-ups and no threat to their clubs. In short, the devious Quisling has decided it will be better for his career and earn him more money by showing his loathing for a successful Manchester City.

I must admit that it has taken time for me to get used to our success as a football team.
Of course our owner saw financial opportunity then delivered a masterclass in choosing people who could carry out a business plan for his investment. This part I am still in awe of.
I still feel a little uneasy about our football success, my dads charactor building virtue of being a City supporter has changed significantly.

I have taken to success and winning like a duck to water.

There lies the difference.
I cannot transpose my defiant I'm a City supporter stance with its bring it on I've heard it all before attitude to our current expectation of a 5 _ 0 victory every game.
Wouldn't do for us all to be the same would it?

I grew up in rag central mate, surrounded by them. Pretty much all my mates and so on are rags. Believe me mate, after the best part of 30 years taking stick, it was very easy to adapt for me.

As you say we are different.
Only been a City supporter for 70+ years so perhaps I am too set in my ways eh?

Just enjoy it blue. The success along with ourselves is not going to last forever, so lets enjoy the good times and glorious football while we can.

I certainly enjoy the successes, the problem now is the expectation of this.

Wouldn’t life be boring if everyone had exactly the same opinions?

I’ve watched us when we were shite starting with 1962-63 season as a regular match goer, through the great Mercer & Allison years, decades of being shite afterwards and now hoovering up trophies.

I know which era I prefer :)

this is not going to end good for uefa and they have jumped on the bandwagon of the other clubs who hate us because of the money we have over them, and what they (uefa) have done to manchester city by dragging our name through the mud over old news and leaks from a hacker that they believe to be true is ridiculous, and no court in the land would touch this case and it would be laughed out of court ????

how can you punish somebody (manchester city owners) for running their football in the right way ?? and with zero debt and let the so call big clubs play with ridiculous debts which they have no intention of clearing any day soon ??, some of the so called big clubs ??? are into the tune of £500 million in debt and spending willy nilly because they are members and friends of uefa ?? truly shocking that they are tarnishing the good name of manchester city with other bad owners ?? just look at what they have provided in 10 years of investing in manchester city ?? and a club that now if the owners walked away tomorrow manchester city would still be a very rich club and debt free and would be in very good shape for the future ???

its shocking that uefa and their board members are getting away with murder and dare manchester city question FFP and the rules ?? how can clubs under the uefa FFP rules be aloud to have such high debts and not be punished ?? how can that be financial fair play ?? why are clubs with big debt not answerable to FFP ? clearly being a board member at uefa gives you the power to make it disappear

just read the the rules and not laugh out loud
