That's why I responded I'm the world's only psychophant. Whenever anyone posts it I appear.
Dubious honor, but you wear it well!
It was the CEO who signed it off and joined the MCFC Board, not a Councillor. Sorry for being a pedantic tw*t
Sounds like an elephant with mental health problems.‘Psychophant’
A harsh approximation of me but weirdly true.
No worries better to be accurateThe only thing that will hurt them is stripping them of their titles. Fines and relegation is easy and they will bounce back from them and use it in the future as a bouncing back part of their history (pep even said in his interview that city have been relegated before and they will bounce straight back)
the only thing that is sufficient is stripping them of titles. That would hurt the most.

I don’t think ‘hurting them’ should be of any relevance to anyone. It should be about justice. You steal something you should be returning it AND punished for it. So strip the titles, down a few divisions at the least.
Removing them as owners is the only real way to hurt them, along with a relegation and transfer ban. Leaving the owners in place who are known to have evaded and bypassed all the rules, just gives them the option to do so again. You can’t say you can trust a group who has been proven to do it before. Owners removed and no sponsorships from state funded companies
It's a scandal, no two ways about it. The idea that the area wouldn't have been redeveloped without Mansour bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan is utter garbage. Look at how Salford has changed, both ends of Deansgate, Oxford Road, First Street etc, etc etc. Where there was nothing but a wasteland of crushed bricks and car parks in the 1990s there are now skyscrapers and auditoriums. Considering the charges against Manchester City Football Club, I'd love to know the size of the brown envelopes that were being passed around Albert Square. I would be very sad to see United in state ownership, but at the end of the day, it's a private business and that can happen. I don't think Trafford Council will be throwing in their side of Salford Quays as part of the deal!
Not bluemoon but I’ve just listened to the football daily podcast where Shaun Wright-Phillips reckons that even if city are found guilty, that any punishment that impacts the players (stripped of titles, relegation/expulsion, points deduction) should be off limits because “regardless of what’s gone on the in the background, the players still had to preform and pep still had to coach to win all those trophies.”
In fact the whole panel, and host seemed rather sympathetic to City’s situation. It’s bonkers. They’ve been accused of cheating but so many pundits are like “ah they’ve still been great on the field.” It’s actually infuriating listening to people excuse it.
I heard this too. That part that I found incredible was the acceptance of Guardiola's argument that accusations are bad for the club's reputation. They've been under investigation for four years, have not cooperated and been charged with more than one hundred breaches. How would they like the Premier League to frame that in a way that's more flattering? Take your fecking medicine and shut the feck up.
Let's be clear. If City paid players more than they could afford to under FFP, then it gave them an unfair advantage over other clubs (domestic and foreign) to attract those players in the first place. So the team on the pitch which played the games would have been different. No point saying the games were won on the pitch. No wonder City had no issues attracting and retaining top talent.
I know his dad is a big factor of course, so he may not be a great example, but I am curious what City are paying Haaland. Maybe they went legit the last round because they knew it was about to hit the fan. Let the truth come out boys.

Considering that there are crazy numbers quoted for Haaland's contract and surprisingly low numbers for some other players I believe you could be right here that he is one of the few City players who has a legit contract.
Don't forget the whole Raiola hawking him round Europe. The demand was £20m to his dad, let alone agent fee on top. Hardly a charitable bunch.
There is a reason why players like Aguero, KdB, Kompany and Yaya never angled for a move to any of the European giants. It sure wasn’t the allure or prestige of being at a club like City. We never even heard a sniff of them wanting to leave. They were (or are in the case of KdB) all being handsomely paid second incomes under the table.
It is about that too. Why shouldn’t they feel it? Hence why I say fining them isn’t enough neither is relegation, that’s too easy for them. It’s got to hit them where it hurts and they’re too wealthy for that to be financial and too good to not bounce back asap. Only way they feel it is titles.
Exactly. How many times have we read that true European giants, such as Real Madrid, Barcelona etc were chasing our best players, and those of other top clubs? Yet, never a murmur about them wanting top Spanish speaking talent like Aguero and Silva, until they were past their sell by date at City. That has been the clincher for me that Real and Barca know that such players are unattainable.
This is a pretty grim state of affairs for any club
Should've been Saul Goodman
Nah, relegation hurts them a lot more. The thing with FFP is that it essentially establishes a permanent cable of top clubs. This is achieved by having certain revenues every year I.e. CL income, PL income, commercial revenue on that etc. Once teams drop out of that, they are pretty much cooked.
If City got relgated via FFP and then had to adhear to the FFP of the EFL they'll virtually be done, as firstly they would have to fire sale almost their entire squad, then they would have to spend in accordance with FFP of those leagues. Once they came back to the PL, they would be a mid-ranking team in terms of income and then have to pull a Brentford type recruitment/scouting pattern to get back to the top four. Title strip wouldn't hurt anywhere near as much as relegation, especially if that was to League One or lower.
You don't say.

Its quite funny reading through some of of the comments and conspiracy thoeries being posted over on BlueMoon, the latest claim I saw is that Arsene Wenger is the ring leader of the so called cartel that brought the charges and someone suggested he might be a close friend of the guy leading the Independant panel as well.
That's what happens when you live in the state of delusion.
Some of these answers make you worry for the well being of these people.
That would actually be good, because Wenger is highly respected in football and is an extremely intelligent, proud man, if someone like him was pushing a case, then that would be great. He knows how badly City have tarnished the beautiful game.
They definitely need to see shrinks. Warped, bitter, sense of injustice, paranoia. I honestly feel sorry for their younger fans who have to suffer through it all.
Why? They were stupid enough to become fans of an abomination. I feel sorry for their old fans who had to endure City become a propaganda device, only had the consolation of at least winning things now after the clubs soul was sold to the devil and now might even lose that.
I think they might have lost their minds - this post is from Bluemoon, which is being lapped up like it is fact:
Make of this what you will, but I've just been privy to some startling information that would blow the lid off PGMOL and the power brokers at the Premier League, if it became public. It involves a recording of a conversation between the match day referee and VAR official at a recent away match, a recording that is now in the hands of City.
It's my firm belief that City have compiled a dossier so incendiary, that the Premier League will have no choice but to totally exonerate the Club of any wrongdoing. If they don't, this is going nuclear. Either way, we hold all the cards and this explains why we're so bullish about the eventual outcome. The Premier League are on the back foot, and in my opinion, are currently lobbying the membership as to how best to quietly end the process. I have also been advised that at least one of the "Nasty 9" has had board level discussions with City, distancing themselves from the others in the cabal.
Pep's press conference tells us all we need to know. Watch it again, look at the anger and barely controllable rage in the mans eyes. His attitude wasn't based upon him being reassured about some poxy finances & bullshit charges, it was because he KNOWS exactly what is coming.
Sit back and enjoy the ride Blues.

This is probably the same guy who met a Rag at the bus stop...
Is this shit some kind of coping mechanism? If they just choose to live in this fantasyland they’ve built there where everything’s a mad conspiracy against them then they can’t be hurt by the cold hard reality that it’s in fact their club that’s the corrupt, cheating entity.
What do they think about our upcoming Purchase ? Really want to know...
There is at least one cynic among them. Probably won't be long before he's chased out of town as an 'undercover rag'
So there's one poster who genuinely believes City has a secret recording of Refs and VAR officials discussing how they will feck over City, potentially during the derby game.
And this somehow will exonerate City from 115 charges spread out over a period of years.
Seems legit.

you all laugh but i’ve had the same news.
turns out pgmol are the ones flying balloons over america. city have so much evidence against pgmol that pgmol were forced to gather all the incriminating documents and attach them to weather balloons to destroy them. now they’ve been shot down and city’s lawyers are currently bobbing around the pacific ocean in snorkels, looking for the documents as they surface. pep guardiola is angry because pgmol drew his face on the balloons to poke fun of his bald head.
This is gold. They are completely psychotic. I can’t wait for the fantasy fiction tales they are going to devise if found guilty
