Pinebro Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Premier League ain't touching any of the Sky 6 clubs. They are untouchable Just shows how corrupt the league is. Should all have been severely point deducted for the Super League betrayal alone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlobalVillan Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 2 hours ago, Genie said: I’d really like to see supporters at every game they play bringing banners and chants to relentlessly remind them that they are cheats. They are getting off too easily at the moment. It needs to be tarnished so they are almost embarrassed to win. That and a total boycott of their games. It would really make waves if their matches had really poor viewing figures, given how much football is all about TV deals these days. I started my boycott of them years ago and I know others that started at different times. I even skip past them on MOTD when I watch on iplayer. It's not too late to stop giving these b******s oxygen. Personally, I love football too much to be complicit in them killing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is that the Premier League dont care about thr English fan as gloryhunting City fans in Africa, Middle East and Asia dont care about football tradition or that City cheated all this time Sad but true 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 People shouldn’t have to deny themselves watching teams like Real Madrid play just because City are cheats. As I mentioned before, it should chanted and bannered (is that a word?) every where they go until the players and the staff are embarrassed to be associated with them.

The 2 biggest cheats football has ever seen playing each other.* I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than watch that. *Honourable mentions to the 3 big Italian clubs, Chelsea, PSG and Barcelona.

Not going to lie… I couldn’t give a toss how dirty and corrupt the Spanish and Italian and French leagues are… They don’t affect us year on year, they didn’t ruin our club - and they at least do it with some style… Not with some dirty word removed Manc accent… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKP90 Posted April 17 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17 Juve have to be the biggest cheats of all time, surely, because of Calciopoli. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to work out what happened there and got totally lost. They got relegated for it and had their title stripped, so as a precedent it's what I'd like to see happen to Man City. But the post trial stuff seems to suggest they didn't actually do anything that impacted the season. Sounds like they might have done things that might have affectes it, but there's no evidence of it, so it's considered a regular season. Really confusing.

It certainly wasn't just Juve but trying to work out who did what is a murky business. As @villa4europe said, people went to prison, but the final report conclusion seems to be that their actions didn't affect the sporting integrity of the competition. Its like the final report is purposely unclear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like the final report is purposely unclear. They stripped Juve of the title for 2 years though, so regardless of the sporting integrity (why would they do it if it didn't help them!), it certainly affected the outcome of the competition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted April 17 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17 I think the main takeaway from the above precedent is that relegation and a huge fine is the absolute LEAST that should happen to Man City. It won't though, as the investigators in this instance are themselves murky AF. If you vary punishment based on the impact it has on your product (ie. the Premier League), then you are corrupt, and given that money is involved, possibly criminal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
