City get away with it......

[Blackestnite]

Surprise.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Now there’s a surprise. In a interview the manager already knew by his words he let slip then said we will have to await the decision

 

[Chabuddy G]

Who’s shocked? Not me

 

[Alf Tuppers Shorts]

Fiddle

 

[Blackestnite]

Not at all, the fine is pennies to them.

 

[Gavlar]

Well at least justice has been done......................said no one ever.

 

[ComedyClub]

Well.. ffp is now officially a joke, can't wait to see teams dump 500 million in one window to get banned for them to appeal and it get rescinded. Absolute fucking joke of the highest order.

 

[Bladeulike]

Does Trevor Brooking work for UEFA now?

According to the way I voted in the S24SU vote, does this now mean Pigs get 12 points deducted?

More likely to get 12 points given to em

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Shock horror!!!

Stinks to high heaven

 

[Grizzly blade]

What a surprise.

wonder who’s taken a wedge for that to happen?

Sadly, the game is corrupt at the top level and there’s no way that it can be saved now.

Only way to win is to cheat. Clearly

FFP - now absolutley pointless

Money TALKS

 

[CW7]

Unpopular opinion, especially as this effectively ruins our chance to get into champions league, but what City did isnt actually prohibited.
They got a sponsorship deal, then they are allowed to spend that money. The fact that they got it from the owner isnt illegal, look at Mike Cashley, but perhaps it should be!

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

More class shit housing from the Paddy Power team

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

I've heard that this is City's new walk out music...........

 

[Gimli]

You broke the rules on spending too much money, your punishment?


Give us some money.

How much?

Less than the amount you make for qualifying for the competition that we originally banned you from.

Ok.

You've just justified Chanser's antics at the Theatre of Rust there!

 

[Whiston Blade]

Money TALKS

It always has and always will. If you can't beat em', join em'.

 

[YES Blade]

I personally think Finanical Fair Play is a load of bollocks anyway, so not really bothered.

I think we'll finish either 6th or 7th, so it wouldn't make any difference to us.

But they need to accept market rates for sponsorship, thems the rules everyone signed up for.

At least Etihad actually has planes. Unlike a certain taxi firm.

But that's waay too vague. How is anyone supposed to know what the going rate for sponsorship is?

Maybe the sponsorship deal was occluded and UEFA couldn’t see it properly.

 

[Breakingblade]

Yeah, the rules clearly aren't good enough. But I'm sure getting caught paying someone else to sponsor you would be seen as cheating by anyone

 

[CW7]

Yeah, should just have it so that sponsors can't be affiliated with owners.

 

[I should coco]

Good point.

There are normally 7 cameras monitoring the deal and they haven't gone wrong on 9,000 other occasions but in this instance, a big fat cheque and wads of cash blocked out the view.

We apologise to Sheffield United.
