    City appeal result at 9:30. I reckon it will be upheld so am expecting some Liverpool and United tears.

    Hopefully the end of FFP in its current guise too.

    Hope it gets over turned tbh, a transfer ban seems more like punishment anyway but then look at Chelsea, just splash extra cash when able to.

    To go from a 2 season ban to a transfer ban pretty much tells clubs to do whatever they like.

    Of course, and a transfer ban isn’t even on the cards, was just thinking it may have hurt them more as the initial ruling. Maybe 1 year is the likely outcome then both win. But yeah just selfish thinking if we don’t get it I don’t want Wolves or Sheffield Utd to either...

    If Tobes is right and it’s all based on stolen intel, then I reckon it’ll flop like a Guinean box-to-box midfielder who’s just completed a £60m move to Merseyside.

    Ah ok. Probs won’t cry but it’ll be much funnier if their ban is upheld. I think they might win it this year though, which would take the gloss off of any gloating.

    Yeah I can see them winning it too, though it'd be funny if they didn't.

    Pep's CL record is actually pretty poor considering the squads he's had imo.

    Would be a ****ing piss take if their ban is overturned. FFP has been pretty toothless to date, and most of their sanctions, like the transfer bans have been as weak as **** as clubs just find a way around it.

    The problem with city is they clearly fudge their numbers and get around the rules just enough to get by. Everyone knows it, but nothing can be put on them.

    I think they have got the resources to quash this decision and Pep will celebrate with £200m more on defence and all players will wear Etihad underwear in a new £200m sponsorship deal.

    Justice done according to fans of team’s who never ever get affected by corruption at the top because they too busy fighting relegation and never in Europe <laugh>
