That’s the one
How hard would it be just to take a generic photo of someone??
You're correct that we are not "living in the age of misinformation", City supporter rimaldo.
i’m just playing both sides, so i always come out on top.
There is very fine people on both sides.
Usually when you have irrefutable evidence, you make it available to those investigating you at the earliest opportunity.
What I think they mean, and it's understandable why they've got it mixed up, is that they have some imaginary evidence.
Did my part today in the ongoing battle between right and wrong. While picking up 17 copies of the latest Beano Annuals, I noticed the poorly trained staff at The Works had accidentally placed the Manchester City Annuals in the wrong section. Fortunately I moved them to the Fiction section and undoubtedly saved 10s of Christmas in Stockport.
They also haven't welcomed it at all, and the day after Pep was bullish during a presser saying they would support the investigation blablabla they had their lawyers do the exact opposite. They're totally acting like they're innocent yeah.
Nothing to see here. Move along. 
Can’t wait for City to get annihilated
City lawyers are frantically adding a few more dollars to their 'irrefutable evidence' pack.
Everton turning the heat up..
“The club will also monitor with great interest the decisions made in any other cases concerning the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules. Everton cannot comment on this matter any further until the appeal process has concluded"

Damn right they should. This is a drop in the ocean compared to the case against City
the ocean is also quite deep for any bodies that go snooping around too far in it.
Exactly this.
3 match ban for Casemiro
I don't mind Everton - but this is really good news. I just can't see City get away after this one.
Sounds like something a Gambino associate would say
Hope you’ve got the blood of an immortal in ya!
Everton were done for a clear breach of spending rules. Think that's a straightforward case. City's much more complex.
Well done Everton.
PL won't do anything with City. Too scared.
I think this is it. People are banging on without speaking to the substance and/or complexity of the charges against the respective clubs.
How is there not a song sung by EVERY club in the PL about how bent this outfit is?
Can you imagine the athmosphere at the next Everton City game if Everton's punishment stands and they do nothing to City
The difference is that Everton's owners won't pull ten of billions of pounds of funding out of the country whereas City's will.
Does that put us on 23 league titles then?
I would say that should be the bare minimum.
Just say they are expelled from the premier league for 5 years.
The football league can then decide what to do with them.
They're laughing at the rest of the league, laughing at headlines like the one above, and will keep laughing. Nothing will happen.
Worth pointing out they aren't sponsored by Asahi, they are sponsored by the non alcoholic specific brand of Asahi (I assume this is mainly for religious reasons). You are correct though, the journey to get where they are now is the issue, they are reaping huge amounts of prize money and have some legitimate sponsors at the expense of other teams. It's telling all the main sponsors remain self sponsors though and we have no idea on the amounts - they could probably just say to a reputable company, we want your logo affiliated with our brand and will pay you for it, and then just never publish the details and say they are sponsored by x, y or z.
Oh so now Everton care about what that have been doing for a decade?
Didn't care before did they!
Didn't care before did they!
Except that won't be dealt with for years.
The maximum points you can get in a Premier League season is 114 but City are so good I reckon they could get one more than that. Google 'Man City 115' for more info.
A lot of arses twitching in Stockport today.
Not really.
Anyone thinking that anything will happen to city are deluding themselves.
city will sort this out one way or another. On the face of it, this decision is terrible for them but they’ll muddy the waters enough to sort it and nothing will ever happen.
Whether that is to the detriment of the PL as a whole remains to be seen
I think something will happen to City - because the consequences will be too big if they dont punish them. They simply cant punish Everton that harshly and let City get away if they are found guilty. If Evertons punishment stands and they end up relegated because of it, they will have a very strong case for a lawsuit if City is let off the hook with a relatively smaller punishment
Everton got this charge after fully co-operating too. City stopped co-operating a few years ago and have been trying to block it at every turn which should make the punishment even more severe imo.
PL will just wait and wait till statutory time limits passes and oops cant do anything now. Maybe give a 1M fine and forget
Who is gonna bell the cat?
