Yep UEFA watched the game and dropped all charges. No way a side that broke FFP could lose more games than Arsenal and the Rags ;)

Shearer thinks we will lose the case so 5th place will be a champs league spot. Its all bad news today.

WTF does he know?

 

[Citizen Green]

Can’t bloody wait till this is all finished.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

WTF does he know?

Wild speculation based on the media's preferred outcome. Desperate to keep the cartel clubs in Europe.

His opinion on the matter holds about as much relevance as some cultish dippers from Norris Green

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

WTF does he know?

The square root of fuck all.

 

[bluwes]

Not sure why he’d even make that comment.

I doubt he knows anything about FFP or our case.

Don't think Shearer knows how to tie his own shoe laces

Pep said it’s the 13th July so that seems the date. The fact Uefa have apparently asked for a delay at this late stage seems odd, surely they have known when they would be making the draw for the QF and SF for some time, why wait until the last few days to request a delay and why would City agree?
Now I can understand the UEFA mobsters wanting nothing to overshadow their glitzy hot and cold balls show, that does make sense but why leave it so late.
Anyway I am fully braced for CAS to side with the mob and for us to launch legal proceedings straight away.

If the cartel gets their way, I hope CFG bankrupts UEFA.

Shearer seemed quick to proclaim we would lose the case.
But he usually talks shit, let's hope that's the case.

Read your first 3 lines again and make your own conclusion ;)

Keep playing liKe today and we’ll be 5th! Hallelujah. ;)

Not sure if it’s already been asked, but are any bookies offering odds on the outcome of the appeal?!

 

[chaddblue]

The square root of fuck all.

Exactly. If Lineker had put him on the spot and asked him what we had been accused of and why we wouldn’t be successful in the appeal, he would have been reduced to a bumbling, mumbling, gurning Geordie fuckwit

Who gives a shiny shite what Alan Shearer thinks about our appeal he’s got about as much insight of our case as Holly Willoughby.

 

[Ric]

The square root of fuck all.

In terms of the nuances of the case, I suspect he knows even less than that. Would’ve loved for him to be quizzed a bit further to justify his view.

In terms of predicting the outcome, I guess he has as much chance of calling it as the rest of us. Let’s hope he’s wrong.

Is that him off corrie?

Not sure any bookie would give odds on something like this as they lack any knowledge of the subject matter or any knowledge of the potential outcome.
