I think I just want things to make sense but they don't.

The "think of the jobs and investment we'd lose" argument for City really breaks down when you use it in other contexts. Apply it to dictatorships. Nope. Crony capitalism? Nah. Illegal drug dealers? Nyet. Hmm... seems like it doesn't apply at all when the underlying feature is corruption & crime.

If you’re wondering why the European Football Clubs chairman Nasser al Khelaifi came out in defence of City’s ceo Ferran Soriano last night. This might offer one clue… www.nytimes.com/2019/07/24/s...

This is a must read, it bleakely reminds me of Arsene, spending so many years fighting and unable to match City for players, losing his own, to be ridiculed and called cheap & a dithererer, when so many players he bid for, City and Chelsea just offered way more & inflated market further every year.

Really amused by the idea that the Premier League can't relegate Man City in case the league loses prestige, it's built on corruption, if it it loses prestige for getting rid of serial cheats then so be it.

The last person I want to see upset is Micah Richards or his family. I think what's more important to focus on though, is not the City fans or their pain. But the collective pain of all the supporters +players for being part of a literal sham of a competition for two decades.

i find it very funny how the manager who surely knew and decided to get the hell out of town before it blew up is all "i am with you forever and ever!!!!!" 😂

😳 Pep before cheats verdict: “If you lie to me, the day after I am not here. I will be out and I will not be your friend anymore.” Pep after verdict: “I am, always have been, always will, be behind my club, my owner, my chairman, Ferran, the players staff, Enzo and you, our unique supporters.”

The idea that the Premier League can’t afford to lose City is genuinely bizarre. For me, they can’t afford to keep them in the league. Their very presence is a blight on the league. I honestly think that if they aren’t expelled, that will be me done with football. That’s how disgusted I am.

Glad to see so much support out there for the true victims of a decade of sportswashing and financial fraud: Manchester City supporters.

It seems apt that Manchester City fans adopted the Poznan, a celebration where everybody looks the other way.

It feels so strange to see all these articles coming now after years of many of us suggesting that both Chelsea and City were cheating.

“It’s not a problem that concerns me,” Mancini said. “Anyhow, it’s not something new, because every four or five years this comes up. Manchester City is not guilty and the fact of having a double contract isn’t my problem but theirs, probably.”

So many whistleblowers end up in the arms of another criminal or a broken system that failed to protect them.

Alexander Beck @the-beck.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

I'll very rarely ever think whistle blowers are criminals, only if they cause harm to the vulnerable and the more we make it easier for whistle blowers, the more harm can be reduced for the vulnerable and increase for those who can afford harm because their capital only exists because of it.

I think it’s disgusting that Chelsea got away with their cheating & just hope Man City don’t too.

And it’s not like either fans base was humble or in anyway ashamed of what everyone knew was going on, they revelled in it, bragged about it, shouted in our faces about it as we’d leave their ground after getting our arses handed to us. So they can get fucked as far as I’m concerned.

By suffering, I don’t just mean the titles we’ve directly lost btw, nobody has a divine right to win…I’m talking about them taking our best players, our fans being divided & actual fights in the stands as the legacy of our greatest manager was dragged through the mud.

Seeing loads of discourse about Man City fans being sad & worried & so not deserving people’s criticism, ridicule or anger. Years we’ve had to suffer whilst they & Chelsea fans enjoyed the fruits of financial doping so miss me with the bollox.

20 years CL qualification and sustained success only really punctured by 2 Clubs responsible for cheating, *whilst turning a profit* & losing players directly to the cheats… the banter this man received is disgusting & his legacy needs to be reviewed.

The other thing that concerns me is that this only came to light as a result of a self-referral following a forced sale of a Club, and a hack. It was so fucking obvious it was happening in both cases at the time. Yet the governing bodies were powerless to stop it. That needs fixing urgently.

I'd rather City get obliterated than we get retroactive titles. Sure, it'd be nice on paper but their blatant cheating and corruption robbed us and fans of other clubs from incredible moments of joy, years of happiness, and the happiness that comes with knowing a competition isn't rigged.

Also, City's statement on their guilt finding reads like a mafia threat to the PL and the other PL clubs calling for fairness. It's absolutely insane man.

The issue goes way beyond those initial 9 years. Cheating early on allowed them to build a world-class squad, flip players for massive profits, and re-invest. Without that head start, they wouldn't have had the foundation or the resources to pull in Pep Guardiola and build a dominant dynasty.

First Punishment is that Man City have to give Haaland to Arsenal free of charge and still pay his wages. Liverpool get all their fullbacks. Manchester United get Carlos Tevez back, same age.

I truly think even Tottenham should win their first league retrospectively. Everyone who finished 2nd to them should get a trophy, and Chelsea should be stripped too.
