This is the man who originally hacked into man city's emails.
He exposed their cheating and went to prison for exposing corruption.
He is now under police protection.
Give this man an MBE or something.
Thank you for what you did Rui.👏
I strongly believe that apart from 115 charges that lasted till 2018 (The year under review)
Manchester City still need to be investigated for 2018 - 2026.
There is a very high chance more charges will be revealed. They didn't stop cheating in 2018.
One question that need to be asked is how City sell players on high wages easily when others find it so difficult.
Marmoush was on ~300k per week and City sold him easily despite him being underwhelming for them for years. There are so many other examples like this. Do they pay these players off and the buying club don’t have to pay high wages?
City fans blaming the “Red Cartel” for financial rules is some deflection.
Since those rules came in, City have won 7 league titles. Arsenal, Liverpool and United have won 3 between them. Liverpool went 30 years without one, Arsenal went 22, and United haven’t won one since 2013. What exactly has this cartel been protecting?
And it’s not as if City were being held back before the rules. From 2009 to 2018, their net transfer spend was around £900m, nearly £400m more than United’s and roughly five times Liverpool’s or Arsenal’s.
I understand why Villa and Newcastle fans want rules that give them a better chance to catch up. I think that’s a fair debate. But clubs also need protecting from spending themselves into serious trouble, as Portsmouth showed. And if any owner can spend whatever they like, what stops the richest one turning the league into a procession nobody wants to watch?
Look at Bundesliga, and Ligue 1.. do we want to become a farmers league that City win every year?
City have dominated with financial rules in place, and now there’s a reported finding that they broke them.... which might explain why they have been able to dominate and not Arsenal, Liverpool, United.
Blaming Arsenal, Liverpool and United for wanting those rules enforced is ridiculous. Debate whether the rules should change, sure. But don’t act like the “Red Cartel” is the reason City are in this position... you got found guilty accept it.
Je me permets de parler un peu tard sur ce sujet dû à sa sensibilité mais voici selon moi, les sanctions adéquates que City devrait percevoir pour les 114 charges coupables des 115 auditionnées🧑💼:
• Une exclusion de la PL et EFL, les envoyant automatiquement en 5ème division conformément à l’article W.51 de la PL.
• Une autorisation de la FIFA qui permettrait aux joueurs de résilier leur contrat respectif (jeunes compris) même lorsqu’il n’y a aucune clause dans leurs contrats.
• Une interdiction de transfert de MINIMUM 3 ans et ce à tous les étages sportifs (jeunes compris).
• Une déduction de points d’un minimum de 50 points pour les sceller à la 20ème place de la saison 26/27, les empêchant de percevoir un maximum de revenu via les droits TV avant la relégation administrative.
• Des compensations indémnitaires aux clubs lésés durant les années concernées à la hauteur du dommage subi.
D’où l’action légale entre les clubs de PL.
• Une amende vraisemblablement déraisonnable de plusieurs centaines millions d’euros.
C’est une sanction très symbolique au vu des moyens financiers que les dirigeants possèdent.
• Un licenciement et un bannissement à vie de fonctions semblables à tous les acteurs, dirigeants et actionnaires de City ainsi donc une dissolution du City Group.
• Pour finir, une publication de la décision de justice.
Rappelons que 54 des 115 charges étaient liés à des informations financières inexactes et à des falsifications comptables. En plus de ne collaborer à AUCUNE enquête.
Rendez-vous compte de la folie.
Je ne suis pas pour le retrait des titres remportés car on ne peut pas retirer ce qu’il s’est passé sur le rectangle vert. CEPENDANT, il faut s’appuyer dessus pour établir les sanctions.
On parle d’un club qui a sali l’image du football anglais et manqué de respect aux clubs qui se sont efforcés à bien travailler durant toutes ces années.
Alors je ne vous demande pas cela souvent mais prière de partager et liker ce post au maximum, c’est important de ne pas toujours parler de ce que le terrain produit.
Parce que c’est aussi ça le football.
City fans banking on an appeal. There is no CAS this time, you will be appealing to the PL whose panel has just found you guilty. Hoping for a long delay? The rules says they have 14 days to appeal and that it will be heard within 12 weeks and only if they have valid grounds 🤷♂️
For the City fans saying they're not guilty because nothing official has been released, BBC say the verdict was sent last week to club executives who had to sign a non-disclosure agreement. It got leaked by someone AT City to someone from the Athletic & Ornstein dropped the bomb.
Classes would do fuck all for these gimps because that's not what it's about. It's just mindless waffling to store up hate for any simpleton that'll eat it up and there are 10s of thousands of willing participants each and every time. Never anything of substance
some of y’all desperately need a basic biology and anatomy class and to go see a real human being for once... trying to gaslight us into thinking W’s completely normal mandible structure is "weird" like y’all have officially lost your minds. please go buy an anatomy atlas I am begging you
