So the Shiekh is personally responsible for you not winning fek all for years.
Seems like a reasonable assumption.
Oh, you’re wanting to run with this are you jlou?
You’re coming across as an idiot.

So the Sheikh's half brother ordered a kicking for an Afghan who'd swindled him.
Thank God I don't live in a country that bombed the fek out of Afghanistan, killing thousands of innocent people for no apparent reason.

Keep spinning soft lad.
He’s got nothing against our actual owner, hence why he’s resorting to this.
Spinning nowt matey, I'm all for taking retribution if you get conned.
Regardless of how it goes next, a lot of the damage has been already been done, as can be seen just from this thread. Even after it goes to CAS (which I'm certain it will), I don't think that will be the end of it, at least not for the club.
That kind of damage Melton isn’t worth worrying about.
Fans of other clubs and even media are pretty much impotent when spouting their opinion.
When people come out with the kind of ill-informed rubbish that they do, it doesn’t really matter at all.
None of them really care. It’s just a stick in which to have a bit of a dig. No club is immune from that, or ever will be.

City Fans : Liverpool are such Victims
Same City Fans : Uefa are always picking on us....The British Press are always picking on us....The FA are always picking on us....
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You forgot Martin Tyler’s cat meowed when we scored once so he wanted us to win the league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don’t know who is worse out of the Manchester fans. Their bitterness against us is getting to Whal’s meltdown standards
See the post above this one Melton to see what I mean.
It’s irrelevant, full of rubbish, and has no actual point
Ask yourself - why has this thread been inundated by Liverpool fans?
It couldn’t possibly be because of the title race that’s just concluded.
At this moment in time it’s in their vested interest to pass opinion on it, because city are affecting them right now on the pitch and are their biggest obstacle in winning the league as things stand. Had Liverpool not been the club to run us to the wire, then their fans wouldn’t have commented as much as they have done.
It’s all incredibly transparent.
Wolves will raise the bar next year for over spending.
Arabs know nothing about financial cheating compared to the Chinese! 😂

Very true ripley. It would be nice to think though that if this did go to CAS and they rule there's no case to answer, then there'd be some serious backtracking by a lot of people that have already presumed guilt (even on things we've not even been charged for, going by on here ). I highly doubt they will though, the reasoning will just be changed to fit the same perception.
That will never happen. The narrative from them will just be that we’ve paid them off.
We’re guilty no matter what according to the experts on here (these experts not even knowing what it actually is that we are under investigation for)
Their opinion on the matter is worth zilch.
Plus they are all a bit thick - just look at the rubbish on this thread alone that they are being reduced to...

And stretty or Se85 or Eric or whatever he's calling himself this week is your prime example.
No one should be too concerned about what's said on a football forum tbh.
Great for a bit of tribalism or winding people up now and then but the history books of the future will not be based on the rantings of annoymous people written on a niche social media site.
Give it 20, 30, 40 years when billion pound signings are made, with people talking about how that is going to ruin the game...
The narrative won’t ever change.
By the way. In 40 years time city will be back in the third tier where we have *cough* spent all of our history, while Liverpool will still be on 18 league titles but have won another 17 champions leagues, and united will have appointed the grandson of ferguson as manager, spurs still wouldn’t have signed anyone, and Arsenal will still be finishing 5th...
With Wolves the perennial premier league winners!!

You can take mancini’s Comment literally Winston, and you’d be absolutely correct to write what you have done.
But looking at it with an admittedly broad brush he does have a point. Fans do moan about the spending, the levels of investment that clubs have benefit from, while seemingly forgetting (or worse not knowing) that the club they support has investment to thank for building up its reputation and standing in the game.
It is actually a valid point to make.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No, it’s not valid.
Plenty of people are able to discuss things objectively and without being hypocritical.
Perhaps you’re both judging fans too much on what you read on this forum.
I never meant to imply otherwise Winston. Of course there are people who can discuss things objectively.
But there are also plenty of fans who can be accused of hypocrisy.
I don’t base either of the above comments on what I’ve read on this forum.
His comment is valid in the sense that he’s not being literal with his use of the word “all”. I’m making that assumption of course, but I make that by not taking his comment literally. If he does think “all”, then I agree with you, which is what I said in my first reply to you.

I don’t think he’s being literal either.
But I do think he’s suggesting a large percentage of fans are hypocritical and I do think he’s aiming it at anyone who hasn’t defended City on this subject.
Which is a pile of crap, to be frank.
Let's let the process conclude and go from there. If we are guilty we should wear the applicable punishment for European competition (no idea why the English FA are brought into this
givena completely different set of rules).
If we are not guilty, resume service and take the necessary legal action against any false accusations.
In the UK at least where I live, law suggests we are innocent until proven guilty with the exception of this forum.
