[City Man]

Loving the discussion of 'plethora'.
A plethora of UEFA ****s.
A plethora press pillocks.
A plethora of hacked e-mails.
A plethora of lies.

Wasn't there an Irish poet called Pleth O'ra?

God, I wish I hadn't posted this, it's so contrived and unfunny

 

[bluesoup]

All we can do from our sofas and pitch side is to support the team - loud and proud.

I sit here knowing the owners and their representatives are dealing with the ffp slap in the face and we’ll hear when they are ready.

At the very least this is just another attempt to destabilise the club from making more history.

 

[Sir peace frog]

I know we are not going away but we are going to take a pummelling.

you always seem like a decent poster, but your last few posts make you sound like a right soppy ****,even cowardly,grow a fucking pair and pull yourself together.

I’ve told David I think he’s barking up the wrong tree on this. UEFA state in their Q&A on FFP that it’s fine for an owner or related party to sponsor a club as long as that transaction is at fair value when assessed against the market. Etihad is fair value and UEFA agreed it was when they looked at it in 2014. It doesn’t matter who paid the money therefore.

(It was the Abu Dhabi Executive Council by the way).

Conn has little interest in facts if they don’t support his jaundiced agenda.

 

[WRicko]

What are we alleged to have done with third party ownership ? And what are the rules ? I thought they only banned it in certain countries ? What was the rule change ?

Surely if we did anything it would not be on Bruno and if it was would it not be through CFG there not a football club they are not UEFA jurstiction

Does he track back the old raggg faced bastard.

 

[oldius]

All fans can do is get behind their team like never before.

Call out all the shysters posting bollocks on social media too.

Despite your middle class leanings and love of monacles, I couldn’t imagine you using such a dirty word.

He reserves it for the plethora of whores all dressed in Nazi uniforms he entertains on the third Thursday of the month.

My understanding is that he worked for PWC, who became the auditors for United and then the auditors for UEFA’s star chamber

UEFA changed the rules to after our accounts were submitted, and that is the context to the alleged FFP violations. There are other issues now. City's communications have been forensically and criminally reviewed with a toothcomb. I'd be shocked if they haven't found something. Is the whole of football going to open up their books for review?

True but when we get into this we will ask for disclosure of evidence and in the 70m emails there will be plenty of incriminating evidence on other clubs... perhaps we’ll see who paid off united’s PIK notes, what’s really in their Cayman Island Accounts, Fenway Sports are cowboys too - so don’t worry if we are going down we’ll take plenty with us.

 

[nmc]

This is the only area of concern I believe we will receive sanctioning, possibly a two window embargo from Fifa.

When I saw Chelsea were yesterday refused a right of appeal, it got me thinking.

Other clubs have been able to bring forward their spending like Barca and Atletico.

Now, either Fifa are thinking two steps ahead and it is not really Chelsea but City they have prepared the ground for, in terms of deals being done behind the scenes.

Infantino, however, is certainly someone in our corner, so I'm not sure, unless Chelsea are being used as a stalking horse to win on further appeal, thus leaving the way clear also for City to spend £200m this summer and see out a transfer embargo?

As I understand it - Chelsea will lose the appeal - then go to CAS - it’s at this point their suspension will be put on hold - so they will spend in the next transfer window. The same will apply to us.

I like your thinking... what a box of treats we could discover!

We lost our seats to accommodate these cipunts after they moved them for the tunnel club.
I asked why they didn’t put them at the back of level 3

That’s a bit generous. I’d go for the middle lane of the M60.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

We used to walk past them every home game on the way to our seat.
They’d often be reading or chatting and not watching the game.
Managed to pick out Jamie Jackson a couple of times for a few choice words.

cnut and rag?

[Sir Joe Aguero]

I wouldn’t even fight it. Just pay some hacker to do the same to all the big clubs and demand investigation. You know, in the interest of being fair.
