Ethically ???? We are dealing with probably the most unethical and corrupt organisation on the planet right now namely UEFA .

As has already been said by other posters UEFA know we have their number but unfortunately with our money and power we have enemies who seek to make things difficult for us ....... big business and politics eh !

I wouldn't deny that C64. I do like City's response also. Sad thing is though football was a great game. At least it was when I was playing and at kids and grassroots level it still is the best and easiest game to get going. All you need is a bit of space and a ball. No fancy gear or equipment needed. That's why it's so loved universally.
But they're turning it into Corporate power struggles, battles in the courtroom? It's not a sport it's an industry with power struggles more akin to Multi-national big business than a game between two teams. There are so many influences that have a stake in making money out of it that you can't avoid corruption.

I wouldn’t let it bother you too much pal . We are the big boys now and the broken cartel want to fight dirty to try and stop us . We have the financial clout and astute know how plus balls of steel to take them all on . Our owners would have known what they are up against and what they have to do , thing is this latest ffp bullshit will very probably blow over in a whimper ............ it’s just our many enemies and their media machines making a lot of noise about not a lot really .

These cnts haven't the balls to take us on in court as I'd imagine we'd take them apart

Since the anonymous PL dirty dozen can’t beat us they want us banned. Pathetic. Fight, fight and fight again.

Now being investigated by the PL. They will not stop

The Premier League now says it is investigating financial matters and academy player recruitment at City.

Where's Bendy?

Looks like there's been a concerted attack on the club by a number of high profile clubs who want their ball back. Just think, the last statement from the PL stated that they had previously written to the club yet they save the announcement until Friday, a day before the games. Whereas, there's a lengthy international break coming up so why not wait until after this weekends games?

I honestly think we have all our ducks in a row but it's the controlling clubs that are forcing the issue in an attempt to distabilise us whilst we fight on all fronts.

So, who is that investigating us now? FIFA, UEFA, FA and the PL, I just wonder if there's a figure in football who has a finger in all those pies?

Come now Beefy. That’s a dreadful slur on Gill. He wouldn’t be so shallow and desperate, would he...

Bloody hell, never thought of him, mate. Just part of the job whilst heading up the cartel clubs.

I'd like to know who these 12 clubs are who the media dragged into this, the none cartel of them must be weak as piss and I'd like to be able to punch them in the face whilst talking football.

It's about time we started fighting out corner, it's the only way to shut the cunts up - 'settling' with UEFA still pisses me off and it got us nowhere.

That's the grab, it's not us who are getting somebody on the board, it's PSG.

Time to circle the wagons , would love to batter
Watford tomorrow , big fuck off to em all

I’m not sure what UEFA or the FA can do. We’ve clearly done some dodgy stuff to get around FFP and if the leaked emails are true it seems the Sheikh has paid money to Etihad, Etisalat etc. who in turn have given it to us as ‘sponsorship’. But if those companies’ accounts say we’ve received it from them then from an audit perspective there’s nothing they can do. UEFA wouldn’t be able to force Etihad, for example, to open their books to them.

Also, UEFA are so dodgy themselves I really don’t think they want anything going to court.

I’m not sure anything will happen over FFP. More likely something will happen due to the transfer of young players, but we’re not the only club seemingly caught up in this.

I don't want us to be simply found to have complied with FFP rules. I want us to take the system on and smash it up. It needs consigning to the dustbin of history.
However I fear this isn't going to end well.
Although, I'm not sure how vigorously UEFA will shake this up. They will not come out of this very well.

Hope you’re right Johnny, but I’ve nearly gone beyond caring.

Playing football through legal teams is not a sport. They can’t win on the field so try to beat us through underhanded business cartel regulation.

I find myself thinking more and more, do you really want to be part of their club.

What's happening to City is profoundly disgusting. Their FFP scam is the trademark of an utterly corrupt world where our own national broadcaster leads the media chorus of haters of our club and country. We've been under the cosh from the off, just sucks the joy out of being a blue and turns us into haters too.

I've seen loads of fans of other clubs on social media giving it "throw the book at them!" "Points deducted!!"

Sorry, have we been found guilty?! The world has gone to shit. I hate football fans.

I organised and ran a Graduate Assessment Day this week at one of our businesses. I was getting in the lift with one of the Grads who was a Baggie. Told him I supported City and he responded "plenty of empty seats at your ground isn't there".

Guess who got the worst feedback and no employment from the day...
