So none of the people are aware of issues of financial irregularities at city they are the innocent ones:
"Al Jazira reportedly paid Mancini for four days of consultancy work per year, with both clubs owned by Sheikh Mansour"
How many players / managers had similar deals??
Sickening what City have done to the British game I love. Same goes to Chelsea.
If you punish Forest, Leicester ' Everton swiftly - deal with these cheats!
Investigate the years after also as those players were the bedrock for years afterwards.
Did their advertising / sponsorship money dip after this period or did it continue as Pep was lauded.

Both C£ty and Chelski have cheated and will always have an asterisk by their achievements in my head. Both on financial steroids. Chelsea's £10 mill for cheating was laughable - admitted it but still cheated! Both clubs cheated lots of fans of great days out and celebrations. Just wrong COYG

"Keep hearing ex-team-mates saying they want trophies taking off them [City] but don't want their medals, " Scholes posted on his Instagram story on Saturday.
He added: "F*** that, I'm a greedy b******. I want my medal."
If my So. played for Liverpool & came 2nd with 90 odd points & not have a EPL medal. I'd want it restated! City stole the moment but shouldn't steal the medals. Screw City & Chelsea.

In the words of Rod Stewart, sort of
" in these days of changing ways with football corrupt in so many ways a story comes to mind of a friend of mine "
Georgie boy took a bung i guess; 400, 000 and not a penny less, Arsenal had to sack poor Georgie boy.
" The Arsenal fans complained George was just a scape goat because everyone else was taking a bung up, but the neutrals cried justice must be done, Georgie had to spend a year out of the game "
" The moneys increased over the years in the passing years but I believe George got to keep all his souvenirs "
I hope you enjoyed my little ditty listeners, but if not please send your complaints to kettlepotblack. com ????.

Are you seriously comparing the two or saying Arsenal players kept their medals? Where's the comparison?? GG got punished full stop. On top of that went to Spurs. Is that not bad enough?

Hi Monmouthshire in the words of Bob Marley song Whom The Cap Fit
" man to man is so unjust people you just don't know who to trust, your best friend could be your worst enemy and your worst enemy could be your best friend " " but if your night should turn to day, a lot of people would runway "
" Whom the cap fit let them wear it ".

My childhood didn't mean much, only raisin' green up
Raisin' my fingers to critics, raisin' my head to the sky
Big, I did it, multi before I die
No lie, just know I chose my own fate
I drove by the fork in the road and went straight
Or
I could have been in prison or the back of a Royce / I never made a choice to take a cut from a wrap / I had to make a choice to take a cut from a track."
What's your point?
The GG comment was no comparison. What about the dads, brothers, sons that came second to cheats & didn't get a medal? Stick up for them mate, I'm surprised as you normally have a more righteous opinion & supporting the underdog?

John mate, the George Graham bung scandal doesn't come close. Yes he took a bung, was made to pay it back and sacked, he then went on to be employed at 2 other Prem clubs. The 2 players involved Lydersen played just under 20 games over 3 seasons and had no effect on any trophies that Arsenal won during his time at Arsenal.
Jensen scored 1 goal during his time at Arsenal and George Graham had already won 2 league titles and a. league cup before he signed them players.
Too compare that with what City have done it to be honest is shocking. Any Gooner who thinks this is on par with George Graham, s needs to give his head a wobble.
Sorry folks I, m done.

Hi Bill mate,
In truth I was just having a bit an ironic fun, of course i know the George bung wasn't on the same level as City's corruption but I was just sick of reading the same old thing over and over and over again so I thought i'd mix things up a bit.
I am genuinely sorry I have upset you Bill that wasn't my intention but at least the conversation has finally switched back to Arsenal away from Man City, so if nothing else at least that was achieved for a few hours.

Sorry for the repetition 62 & I just posted again about City. Sorry but it is the biggest thing to hit football for a minute.

I for one 89 knew you were joshing! GG was an individual paid his price did the time end of. City and Chelski was systematic and damn the consequences. I do feel for the fans denied celebrations in particular the Liverpool fans under Klopp, United in Aguero moment and for that matter us coming second to them twice.
I just hope all other fans now have an asterisk against any of their trophies -the worst punishment is to make their trophies irrelevant amongst fans and never acknowledge them. COYG.

Hi Northumberland mate, i am happy to let it all play out as it will and whatever the powers that be decide to do they will do. For City fans everything about their best days is now and will be forever be tarnished in both their own eyes as well as everyone else's eyes.
In my opinion nothing can change the past as the moment has gone so awarding other teams titles would be merely a symbolic gesture and mean very little if anything at all, but once again if thats what the FA decides to do and if it makes fans of other clubs happy to receive them then why not.
For me the sooner its all done and dusted the better because much like Brexit its been going on so long now im past caring what happens I just want it over and done with ASAP so everyone can move forward and get on with the only things that really matter, the present and the future. As for Chelsea, unless something new comes up i think rightly or wrongly that's already been dealt with.
