Manchester City is disappointed but not surprised by today’s announcement by the UEFA Adjudicatory Chamber. The Club has always anticipated the ultimate need to seek out an independent body and process to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence in support of its position. In December 2018, the UEFA Chief Investigator publicly previewed the outcome and sanction he intended to be delivered to Manchester City, before any investigation had even begun. The subsequent flawed and consistently leaked UEFA process he oversaw has meant that there was little doubt in the result that he would deliver. The Club has formally complained to the UEFA Disciplinary body, a complaint which was validated by a CAS ruling. Simply put, this is a case initiated by UEFA, prosecuted by UEFA and judged by UEFA. With this prejudicial process now over, the Club will pursue an impartial judgment as quickly as possible and will therefore, in the first instance, commence proceedings with the Court of Arbitration for Sport at the earliest opportunity. https://www.mancity.com/news/club-news/club-news/2020/february/manchester-city-club-statement Anyone know what that CAS ruling is they are referring to | ||

I'd imagine Man City will throw money at the appeal and it will come out favorably. | ||

Barça money was generated by the club (that is owned by the supporters or "socios" Who elect the president). You can't compare it to PSG that receive money directly from the Saudi royal family. | ||

I mean they did decide on getting rid of the UNICEF sponsorship, after a period of no sponsor to publicise the Qatar foundation so there is that. Although I don’t think they’ve been guilty of trying to get around FFP rules or anything. Nonetheless, mes que un club doesn’t quite have the resonance to many that it used to. | ||

Aye I don’t think it’s been suggested they’ve broke transfer rules, which fall under FIFA’s jurisdiction as you say. Hopefully something gets done anyway and City’s lawyers don’t drag the process on with endless money and legal challenges. For those of us who care about the game beyond pure entertainment and being an advertising vehicle for reprehensible national regimes anyway. | ||

Capping spending related to current revenues, well all that really does is mean the clubs who were huge at the right time remain huge and you don’t even have the old option of having a stupid rich benefactor to try and close that gap now. No fan of City or (really any of the Gulf money in football) don’t get me wrong there lads. I agree with that. Clubs like Barcelona or Juve have ungodly salaries that are close to or beyond the supposed cap, and sign tons and tons of young players before they're expensive to avoid being in trouble later. They recruit more than they need and their cachet means those youngsters will prefer to go there rather to tier 2 or 3 clubs that might actually need them to progress and maybe reach tier 1 at some point (which would be the right way to grow as a club, rather than buying in like PSG or City). There's no fair play. What about the pressure those historically big clubs are putting on UEFA to have a private league? Isn't that worse? FFP was a nice idea but the application has been a joke. | ||
