      City fans are obviously happy today but I tell you who else is giddy as f**k at this moment in time, Newcastle fans, they're about to get new owners who can come in and run riot with the cheque book because nothings going to happen apart from they'll have to give a bit of money away.

      Not really because the rules in the Prem are still there

      That is a very very very thin silver lining on a horrendously black and ominous cloud. The reality is that clubs like PSG , Chelski and Citeh now have free reign to spend as much as they want, to completely distort the market and dominate for as long as their billionaire owners are interested. Football for other clubs is effectively fu**ed, you might get the odd year where the stars align for another team but it will be the petro dollar clubs that dominate from now on, its a sad day for football.

      Erm it's not uefa, they wanted the ban, its CAS who are dodgy as f**k.



      I realise that, the lmao was aimed more at UEFA and how weak they are. 👍

      But the investigation started within that 5 year period? Possibly a reason why City done all they could to hinder and stall the investigation.

      But what is to stop Mansour  creating a holding company, lets call it we love Milk Sheiks Ltd and doing a shirt sponsorship deal with Man city to the tune of say £100m a year for the next ten years?

      I posted this on here in 2011. The answer according to CAS evidently was F all !!

      I we I’ll support our great club until my last breath, but today, I sort of fell out of love with the game.
      Clearly if you have untold millions, you can abuse the Financial governing rules without fear, as you have a similar amount of cash to throw at lawyers costing 24k an hour !
      That in itself is obscene.
      Everything they have won in the last 6-7 years is tarnished. Yeah, all their trophies should have an asterix beside it !

      You haven't had a pop at The Hired Gun for a while, hasn't bodged it as much as many thought he would.Maybe he hasn't read the script. Even getting a shift out of Pogba which is a minor miracle in itself. Jury's still out and Ole might still bodge it next season but in the meantime he might even get into the Champions League.

      How can I? If this trend!!! Continues I'll be eating humble pie.  ;D I'm still not convinced though. Already said hoping he brings a CD in as that's a priority. Hope he's reading this  ;D

      I'm with you and think they will get away with it. Cheats usually do in football.

      You and KK pegged it.

      F***ing stinks doesn’t it. City have become so unlikable.

      Will be horrible when city have the same amount of European cups as the likes of great clubs like Ajax. Nobody can stop them  from stating their income is X and spending Y and Z on transfer fee’s and salary’s now with the beating FFP took today.

      I wonder if they'll do a guard of honour for the lawyers and the men who delivered the bribes?

      I don't think I've seen a bunch of men celebrating when getting a €10m fine before.

      Probably never will again either.

      Actually puts what a mad sport football has become into perspective that a 10 million fine is seen as spare change and worth getting a selfie to celebrate it!
