Well saidCompletely agree. We have been constantly dug out by the media. When you think Chelsea had won the league once before Abramovich took over...their slating for ruining football went on for about 2 years before it stopped. They beat FFP and were allowed a seat. Meanwhile we came along and got so much stick. We came from further back than Chelsea but the club has just allowed the negativity to persist.
Our brand is continually slated. The wider investment and positive contributions our owners have made just a token mention and then ignored. Even with this news breaking, I have only seen one or two stories that actually review the facts and look at what FFP is all about and how wrong it is as a concept. Fair enough United and Liverpool fans loving it, but no supporter of anyone outside those two should be supportive and should want City to win their appeal and bring UEFA and FFP crashing down with it.
We may have reported false revenue but we had the targets moved late in the day and subsequently got punished. We paid our fine took the reduced squad and moved on to try and maintain a relationship. But we warned them then we would be willing to take them down in the future and now is our chance.
Leicester, Wolves and Everton fans should be right behind us. As should any other fans that would like to have a chance of success in the future, or just more equal opportunities. True FFP would be a salary cap akin to rugby union.
Benidorm ?
Mentioned this in another thread, but the notion that she is doing nothing to stop the negative press we get is very unfair. She’s clearly very highly regarded within the club. Amazing how many people with no experience in that field seemingly think they know the job better than she does. The idea of just banning dissenting voices isn’t really a viable one for the club.

Fair enough mate. What do you think she should do differently?I know the industry Ric, with respect, we have taken too much.
ReallyIf she’s let it go on this long without compiling a watertight case, she needs to be sacked and humiliated because it would be clear that she isn’t fit for the job. Get in a real FCUKING hard nosed woman. They’re normally brutal in law.
