Guardiola to be found out in the premier league

[helpimonfire]

Cubs dissing Manchester City over financial allegations are damn hypocrites

It’s so sickening to see all the top clubs gang up on Manchester City, when so many of those same clubs were all having secret meetings, dreaming of counting the cash of the European Super League.

Interesting we weren’t named, normally take every opportunity to jump on our moral high horse.

We sold that horse when we brought Moshiri and Usmanov in.

some of the replies on this are hilarious, all these kopites talking about pep lacking respect. I’m sure they all gave city loads of respect whilst they threw bricks and other projectiles at their bus

Side note - how do you embed tweets like that? Where do you get the long number from?

Not sure, pal. I literally just copied the tweet URL from the Twitter App. Sorry if that doesn't help!

Not particularly interested in them, I'm more interested in how the alleged cheating has affected us. It might have meant Champions league after the 13/14 season and an upwards trajectory for the club, actually becoming a 'top' club again. Instead because we now have no chance of getting back up there our fans seem quite content to just snipe at the 'top' clubs. Then you have things like the artificial hyper inflation of player transfers and wages caused by these meaning we've had to spend stupid money on players. People shouldn't underestimate the damage these have done to our club and all the other clubs for that matter.

I wouldn’t dispute we would be on shakey ground on this particular subject, but didn’t stop us being front and centre of the noise about the super league.

Lovely thanks mate!
Here’s one such kopite unironically using words like disrespect and sportsmanship as if they’re beyond reproach

Looks like the whole of the Barcelona glory years was rigged for them with corruption of officials.

Barcelona host Real Madrid amid angst over referee payment scandal

La Liga’s giants were briefly on the same page but the case against Barça has injected a level of paranoia into this title race

www.theguardian.com

"The spark for all this is of course the charges brought against Barcelona this month in relation to payments made to Negreira during his time as a senior La Liga referee. Real Madrid have now formally joined the case, a process that allows them to support and present evidence, which of course they were always going to do.....This is already a scandal of jaw-dropping proportions. The period being investigated ranges from 2001 to 2018. During those years Barcelona won 10 league titles, four Champions Leagues and three Club World Cups, in the process establishing the Barça brand as a definitive modern sporting juggernaut...To give some context this is the equivalent of finding out Manchester United had Howard Webb secretly on the payroll through the Ferguson years; and then arguing in their defence that this should all be seen as perfectly normal...Barcelona managed to retail the Més que un club shtick while wearing Unicef and Qatar Airways on the same shirt, like some rapaciously moralising two-face, and always presenting itself as the underdog; the ewoks not the Death Star. It all starts to look a little stranger if this version of the past takes hold."


I hope they get their titles and European trophies stripped from them.

Yes, a couple of CL titles. It should extend to UEFA competitions because they got their titles from bunging refs.
