How many years running have we finished above the cunnts now?

This is the first season for a while they have finished above us ;-)

Cheesy wotsits aren't the best when posting on tablet or phone.

Not great when you’re watching porn either!

 

[Shads]

You’ve obviously never made a section 78 application in front of a circuit judge!

You are quite correct. I have never done any criminal law. Civil all the way for me in both jurisdictions.

What gives me hope is that apparently Stuart Pearce Says he would be amazed if the ban is overturned. What a dickhead. What is his problem with City.

His problem? He got found out and cruelly exposed as a footballing fraud in his time at City. Pearce was a good player but as a manager or pundit he’s up there with Phil Neville.

 

[Chappie]

I have a bad feeling.

The walk in clinic at Wythenshawe will be open in 15 minutes ,they can normally sortthings out

 

[Marvin]

Woke up this morning checking my news apps for any news and nothing , for an organisation like UEFA that leaks like a sieve UEFA seem to have stopped the leaking over night.

Have any other CAS results ever been leaked ?

This is my problem, there maybe nothing to leak by UEFA and City. This is a CAS process, not UEFA. UEFA and City can't leak anything if they don't know. On the other hand Pep seems confident. I go with Pep knows but I am not sure of that.

The underlying aspect is confidence in our case. I was never convinced by the UEFA emails in of themselves. They raise questions but I don't think they are conclusive. City should be able to furnish contracts, evidence of payments and the missing emails, witnesses etc to make a convincing case. We may not have wished to do so at UEFA because of the leaks and lack of confidentiality. They were in most fans eyes, extremely biased against us.

 

[Bill Walker]

So nobody knows other than top level exec and they will have signed non disclosure. It’s pretty clear without a leak from UEFA we wIl need to wait until 9.30am tomorrow.
Does anyone know how this will be announced? Will it be a press release or media presentation or what?

Hope its 9.30am Australia time, hahaha....can't wait :)

 

[Elbow beards]

I love being a City fan. You become an expert on law, accounting & finance, geo-politics, PR & media, cyber security and loads of other stuff.

But still no one can answer, what you call a round bread you put chips on!

 

[hampshireblue]

Apologies if this has been said, but Pep did say on MotD that today's result guarantees CL football next season. A slip of the tongue maybe, but he's usually pretty careful about what he says

Sorry mate BST. What time is that with you? About midnight?

 

[why me? Blue Manchester]

One more sleep to go (if you can sleep that is) and the truth will be out

If we been told the outcome Pep will know.

 

[daztrueblue91]

I don’t understand why City would agree to move the judgement to the Monday, seemingly at UEFA’s request if we didn’t already know the outcome.

Why would we go out of our way to help an organisation that it trying to screw us, and delay finding out the result for a longer period of time, when we don’t have to?

If there was the possibility of the ban being upheld, surely we’d want bad news breaking on a Friday rather than a Monday. Especially in the week of the semi-final.

5's the new magic number..

Fcuk UEFA off, Pep to sign a 5 year extension and spend 500 million in the transfer market..!

Not forgetting the rags are about the same amount in debt..!

There's your connection , City have been sending us subliminal messages all along and it's been staring us right in the face, just like the 'Big W' in the film, 'It's A Mad, Mad World'!

Exciting times ahead..!

You're obviously old school. Now you would have to mention the obvious editing clues in 'Fight Club' and 'Seven' how obvious it has all been. I wonder if we could get Del La Soul to re-record '3 is the Magic Number' and get City walking out to it next season, doing high fives, with 'The Fifth Element' playing on the screens.

 

[Ardwick Green Blue]

FWIW.... I've just had a look at the NY Times and they have nothing on the decision at all. As they are one of our arch enemies in the media on the side of US owned PL clubs they'd be cock a hoop if they knew we had lost and would definitely publish this before the announcement.

Is the right answer.

 

[BlueBrain]

Sorry mate BST. What time is that with you? About midnight?

It’s 6:30pm for us aussies (on Monday)

 

[eastmanc]

I've noticed that with Pearce, he seems to hate us now. I'm still waking up from his last season in charge of us, the worst football I've witnessed at City.

It was fucking horrendous, don’t think we scored a goal at home in the second half of that season.

 

[City Raider]

It seems we can discard Cheesy’s tweet, no-one else picked it up and he’s pretty much followed it with a get out of jail free tweet should it go against us.

So we’re left with the confidence of resident experts and much of that seems based on the profile of our witnesses, one in particular.

If the whole thing comes down to something as simple as Sheikh Mohammed just having to confirm the source of funds, what an absolute farce this whole thing has been.

 

[KS55]

Think 98% know or feel its looking good.
Problem is we are City & if anyone can fuck up its us

Just listening to the very smart & well educated posters on here & the lawyers solicitors we have in the forum makes me feel good about it all.

I have gone through every page on this thread & loved every minute of it I just hope from Monday 10am the final pages or post CAS anmouncement are full of joy.

To be honest I'm looking forward to Tolmies its quite thread once this is over.

We win then City will make some noises in the transfer imo

I don't agree we stay quite & dont take the bastards to task or anyone liable to be brought to justice I want blood, I want Harris & Delaney fucked over I want Gill & Parry to be called out then I want us to go & take Alaba off Bayern, Koulabily off Napoli, Havertz off Leverkusen & Son off Spurs win the FA Cup & wouldnt it be just fitting to watch Dave lift the Champions League in August

Greedy!
