The BBC reported the same as mcfcwatch.

We're starting to rattle cages in Germany is all I can say.

Hello again Christoph,

Thanks for your prompt email, it was much appreciated.

I shared my question together with your reply on two independent Manchester City forums. In case you haven’t already seen them these are the two threads concerned.

Man City Fans.net & Bluemoon

You are no doubt already familiar with the sort of reaction generated by your revelations on those message boards.
It is nonetheless important for you to recognise that the sincerity and genuine outrage expressed is fully justified.
I think the general view about your organized attempt to damage the reputation of our club was well summarised yesterday by Martin Samuel in the Daily Mail and Gabriel Marcotti in The Times .

As a City supporter for 60+ years I would just add that scapegoating ‘Oil Money’ and the ‘Nouveau Riche’ for the decline of the Bundesliga is chillingly reminiscent of evil crimes your nation would like us all to forget and forgive. It is also a matter of great regret that you are still able to find collaborators in the ranks of the British press. They’ve got form too.

The deterioration in the standard of German football, and indeed in Italy, France and elsewhere, is in fact directly attributable to the malign influence on UEFA of the cartel of the G14 clubs and specifically in your case, Bayern Munich.

It is my earnest hope that my club will take robust legal action against these slurs and allegations which are solely based on unlawfully obtained and highly suspect information. In reality, they are merely a soundtrack to the pathetic death throes of a shameless and corrupt group of entitled clubs.

Best Wishes,

Johnny Crossan

Well played that man

But JC, what do you really think about the Germans?

Excellent work, JC.

Great work JC..... kick em in the bollox.

Fantastic response by JC ...but dont hold your breath on them answering your last email.

The good news is if the documents are obtained illegally, UEFA and premiership can't take further action. The bad news, they've tarnished our name and will take a while to recover.

The loathsome Ladyman fronting up for the City haters at the Shakthar PC - what a ball of Raggy slime he is. Remember them as they crawl into the light my fellow blues. A reckoning will come.

No , the news is we tell UEFA what to do or we take UEFA to court . The fucking Germans and Spanish are now on the back foot after being looked after for decades by UEFA , lets call it a power shift ? This is what happens in big business , do keep up pal .

I hope the fans start waving bank notes at the Munchen supporters on sunday.

and I thought Mullock was supposed to be a Blue....
(still I suppose he has to earn a crust)

"What City's owners and executives should have done in 2014 is take their case against FFP to the lawmakers.
Their failure to do so means the club's subsequent achievements are now in grave danger of being forever tarnished in the eyes of some."

Only in the eyes of those who hate us already JC , "some".

So we have been cooking the books they say and manipulating income streams through other companies. I’m guessing BDO as auditors might have picked up on some of this if it was to 10% of what they are alleging.
