Jassim turned up and put Mansour through a table
City and Financial Doping | Charged by PL with numerous FFP breaches
- Thread starter VanGaalEra
- Start date
Been reported that it’s secret. We won’t know.
Feels bad that doesn’t it? I’m picturing envelopes stacking on the table and eventually there will be enough
I can appreciate that position. I’ve always been torn on it for the same reason.
It has as much chance of remaining a secret as Rishi had of watching Malcolm in the Middle. There will be more leaks than a United Utilities brand colander.
For sure man. I don't know much about the economy as I'm living in Ireland last 35 years but I do think football needs a cleaning.
What in the Man City sponsorship model is going on here?

The entire case was supposed to be confidential but it leaked out. The result of the case will leak out definitely.
There’s huge money on the table for any leaker as this is one of the biggest scoops football in this country has known.
The scrambling behind the scenes and dodginess of this whole, sordid affair must be epic.
We'll soon know as City will be going on a spending spree like we've never seen before if they win!
Well they are apparently going to activate Bruno Guimarães' release clause which is roughly 100m (not sure if £ or €) so doesnt look like they are too bothered by anything going on around them.
100% this. I've never seen a more rotten set of fans than these awful little City glory hunters. The way they squeal with delight about their latest illegal Premier League victory while simultaneously claiming to be the victims of the "red cartel" is just revolting.
I get that banter is a part of football rivalry. But this "football club" seems to attract some genuinely nasty, vile people who only seem to get pleasure out of the frustration of others. I can't tell you how many times I've seen City fans on reddit etc spewing out bile such as "I'm glad our club is upsetting so many people by winning all the time" and "LOL Pep has got you all so triggered" and stalking your profile and harassing you if you dare disagree with them.
I'm sure there are many genuine City supporters who have been fans since before the takeover and are decent folks. But I'd love to see all these horrible little "Cope" squealing glory hunters silenced.
City are owned by trolls, run by trolls and are followed by trolls

Well if that doesn’t scream out lawsuit or bribe, I don’t know what does.
So he's apologising to absolutely nobody?
Wonder how much he got paid for this, probably a very tasty little fee.
If city lose the case, does it affect anything or is it just a free hit
City bringing this case is practically an admittance that many of the 115 charges are valid. If they lose this case there is even less chance than before that they win the main case.
Are there any updates from this case? When does it end?
I don't think we get to hear the outcome, so I doubt there will be any updates at all
Even if no leaks happen, the outcome can be inferred based on the value of new sponsor deals. Might take a while, though.
Why is this allowed to be a private hearing? Big implications.
Well the 2 weeks is up is't it?
It speaks volumes for how little anyone cares about City that this has barely had a mention since the initial outcry.
I know people have said they won't announce anything, but I can't see how they can keep a lid on the outcome.

You'll soon know about it if City win as they'll start announcing eleventy billion sponsorships from their own companies and tabelling 300m bids for Vinicus Junior.
It’s unlikely to have been a win for Abu Dhabi. Silence sometimes speaks volumes.
It’s unlikely to have been a win for the PL. Silence sometimes speaks volumes.
So has there been any change in their transfer activities due to the court case, and the impending charges?
Or are they just going to casually ignore the rules and outspend everyone with under the table payments like they do every year?

I’ve seen this before…. John Wick, was it? How much is the bounty on this Rui Pinto?
Everyone in that fecking hotel is after him
But, I hope this guy remains OK. More than a ballsy move.Why is this Rui Pinto guy in witness protection?
Is it solely related to his football whistleblowing?
Is it solely related to his football whistleblowing?
He isn't.
There already are a ton of emails that prove City are criminals. These leaks accomplish nothing.
Releasing a ton of illegally obtained documents out into the world would probably help Man City get a miss trial.
Yup. 100%.
Isn't in witness protection?
It's being reported that he is.

Is he no longer in witness protection?
Maybe he is.
I just didn't see how he could've making these kinda statements using his real name if he's in witness protection.
Perhaps I've watched too many Mafia films! In my mind when someone goes into witness protection, they change their name and disappear, not carry on very publicly doing what they did before they were convicted.
It will be interesting to see how the (prospective) new gov of different color treats this matter and the geopolitics involved. Not sure they would kill the golden goose with strangling regulation, yet something they are gonna do imho.
