They know who they are.

In their desperation, they decided that it was okay to throw away a key pillar of Western civilisation - Legal redress.

To them, mob rule should be applied rather justice based on hard evidence.

Innocent

posted on 14/7/20

Lots of our fan groups are saying we should applaud Sheffield United onto the pitch next season for not going along with the sheep.

So many comments from fans of other clubs who are quick to judge but incredibly slow to justify why they think the way they do.

Innocent Exploiting loopholes isn’t the same as being innocent. Innocent parties do not get fined 10m.

From what I read you got off on technicalities, not because you were proven innocent?

UEFA should have hired some of the dippers off ja606 instead of professional lawyers

It seems they’ve more in the know

Pride, what have you read?

The statement from CAS is absolutely clear.

Surely if City were innocent they would not have been fined for anything.

They couldn't consider evidence over 5 years old as it is outside of the UEFA regulations. Even though the time period being investigated was over the same period.

Seems a bit dodgy to me?

Sorry, I’ve misrepresented what the 10m was all about. I said have said ‘bribe’ or ‘bung’. Hope that clears it up 👍

That was only part of CAS’s statement Pride.

Dr Tobias - I’ll ask you. What was the fine for?

Terminator - again, same question for you. Your last reply clears up nothing.

Million dollar question: If there is no dubious activity from City, why did they get fined and why did they accept the fine?

I am sure there's been an internal blackmailing from City putting FFP in jeopardy or threatening to do so, if the ban was applied.

Sheiks rattle and roll

That's a pretty big part though

We the fans will never forget.

And history won't forget either, the days when City totally out muscled FFP to avoid a ban! Murky times!

No Pride, you’re misrepresenting the statement from CAS by not referring to it in its entirety. You focused on one part only and have run with it.

What does the statement say Pride?

And now I’ll ask the question to MoreSpurs

What was the fine for?

It should clear it up for you. I don’t care what’s in the report, it’s all just ass covering. We all know there’s nothing City won’t do to protect themselves. If that ban was upheld City would have become an irrelevance, and their owners couldn’t let that happen.

I think this 'woe is me' line is a bit misjudged.

Feels a bit like an Amazon statement telling us how they pay their taxes.
