Apart from anything else, the question is why UEFA permitted the leaks. It's against their own ethical code, every investigative code known to man and is unprecedented. Once you know why, you can understand that it was never a fair enquiry, that people on the inside had vested (and, we'd argue, commercial) interests in damaging our brand and the results of any such enquiry cannot be relied on. It's a major issue for UEFA.

just to play devils advocate (and not for any points scoring) did the CAS judgement not say (paraphrasing) that the leaks may have come out after a judgement by the IC had been arrived at and as such this did not mean that the judgement itself may have been biased?

happy to be corrected on this
 
Could not give a shit if we are banned from the Champions League.

They will never,ever let us win it.

I will carry on booing,until i can boo no more.

Rotten,corrupt, bastards who have been out to get us since we gate crashed the cartel.
 
What gets me is they reopened the investigations 1 day before the 5 year timeline on stolen leaked emails!! 100 of thousands Emails that mainly only picked out city emails! So that tells me someone was paying this guy to Steal them and look for shit on us! I’d say it’s the fcuking yanks.

Little did we think the Yanks in Liverpool would be causing City the most trouble, rather than the Yanks in Trafford.
 
Would be amusing if City ended up quids in as a result of Liverpool and Man Utd inspired leaks. If only.
 
Fuck me that's a whopper right there The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) dismissed the club's claims, stating they were "groundless" and "unacceptable in tone". so not Leterme/UEFA then?

FFS... How could they get that so badly wrong.... unless it wasn't accidental of course

That's genuinely not acceptable. It's impossible for anyone to write that if they've read the original stories properly.
 
I'll be honest I laugh at all of the paranoia on here but that is awful. If they're not trolling City then that's embarrassing for a supposed respected source of news.

It's been a very long time since the BBC were considered to be a " respected source of news ".
 
Pep must know this is why City fans are at odds with UEFA. At least one of the reasons anyway.

We want to win the CL but we don't believe we are being given a fair chance.

God UEFA are in a mess over this.

Pep almost certainly knows everything. I think if he didn't know what the club knew, then he'd have his doubts about the future of the club.
We know how desperate everyone at the club is to keep Pep and if they're confident in themselves they'd share it with him if it kept him on board.

Reassuringly, Pep seems quite on board so it must mean the club are VERY confident with the info they've got.
