Rival fans fail to understand that if Man City gets relegated, the Premier League loses its entire global appeal and biggest financial asset, which is exactly why the hierarchy will do everything to keep us at the top.
BIG BREAKING: Edward Snowden calls for the IMPRISONMENT of Sam Altman to establish liability for the damages caused by OpenAI's models, to a thunderous applause in a packed hall of 1000+ people at ETH Zurich. Let's stop this claptrap of safetyism and throw Altman in JAIL.
Bollocks. Rich owners are free to invest as much capital as they want on infrastructure:
Building or expanding stadiums
Upgrading training ground facilities
Funding academy and youth development systems
Investing in community projects
What they can't do is pay for massive wages out of their own pockets, and if you don't understand why, then ask supporters of Wigan Athletic, Bury FC, Portsmouth FC, Rushden & Diamonds, Derby County, Gretna Green and Rangers FC.
Fabrizio Romano has still not posted the 114 guilty verdict. He of coruse posted Rodri's quotes, amplifying City's defence & not aggregating the news. The selective silence & PR machine rolls on.
David Ornstein broke the biggest story of the decade, while Romano won't even acknowledge that it has happened. The stark difference between them couldn't be any clearer than it is now.
A coward & a lackey, only confirming suspicions about him & City held by many for years.
Meet Fabrizio Romano:
• Never reported on the Negreira case
• Never reported on AFA and FIFA scandals
• Never reported on Infantino
• Never reported on Man City’s 114 charges
Journalist by face, PR machine by work.
They have to have a Juve level points deduction, because it’s too dizzying to think of players, fans and coaches who were unfairly robbed of success and what it could have done for their lives.
The permutations are incalculable so the penalty has to be an eternal deterrent
🚨 🗣 @JacobsBen on Manchester City:
"I can also exclusively tell you that if Manchester City are kicked out of the Premier League, the EFL plan to read the verdict, and they are willing, in solidarity, to back the Premier League position and try to keep Manchester City out of the EFL as well.
So there's a danger in a doomsday scenario that Manchester City could be kicked out of football altogether.
My understanding is the Premier League have been pushing for a significant, a record, a groundbreaking, a severe points deduction, and even having Manchester City RELEGATED."

Many thanks to Ash Browne at the Footy Record for letting me document the footy discoveries of the year.
3rd straight appearance in Grand Final record.
Lions lucky charm?
Empires do not apologize.
They reframe.
Vietnam was not a crime.
It was a "mistake."
Iraq was not an invasion.
It was a "miscalculation."
Tearing up the Iran nuclear deal was not a betrayal.
It was a "policy shift."
Language is their first weapon.
Sanctions are their second.
Bombs are their third.
Trust should never be on the list.
