10 million fine a.k.a bribe
Yup, it did.
Oh well. Just need to beat Southampton and it's all good.
Yeah. We always bottle it when Chelsea drop points and also add to the fact that Southampton always play like prime Brazil against us. They're on good form and Danny Ings is doing a madness, let's just hope we don't start slow like we did against Aston Villa and Bournemouth.I really hope they do today.. they been dropping the ball all season
Cas’s panel of three lawyers found that City failed to cooperate with the investigations by Uefa’s club financial control body (CFCB), which oversees FFP compliance, and imposed the €10m fine for that. The panel said City had shown a “disregard” for the principle that clubs must cooperate with a governing body’s investigations, and conducted an “obstruction of the investigations”.
However on the central finding by the CFCB’s adjudicatory chamber that City’s Abu Dhabi ownership had disguised its own funding as independent sponsorship by the state’s commercial companies, Cas found “most of the alleged breaches were either not established or time-barred”.
So they basically got off because statute of limitations expired on the investigation they were stonewalling And for that they even got their fine reduced
Meanwhile @Yayo Toure is in here celebrating the ruling as if it was a landmark civil rights decision and not a ruling based on a Harvey Weinstein 'I raped her back in the 90s so it doesn't count' defense

lmao lets not act like these rules arent flawed. the also took illegally acquired emails (person who got them is sitting in prison right now) khaldoon said they weren't cooperating because of that. It also says that the emails obtained were out of context as well. giving our information to teh corrupt uefa wouldve done nothing. they presented that same evidence to CAS that you say was stonewalled. its also argued these are same breaches we were fined for in 2012-13 as well (im not sure on this though)
mans is mad they cant fight over the 5th spot. rewrite FFP to actually mean something (preventing clubs from having debt dumped onto them) not to keep the old guard in power (hasnt worked anyway).
@Yayo Toure lets do these victory laps. Bought to bring in a Sane replacement (ferran torres) 2 CB and a LB maybe even a forward.
