3 points against a shite team from a terror state mean nothing, we lost by playing in the first place. MOTM no matter what happens is Gavin Bazunu. #Ireland

Je me permets de parler un peu tard sur ce sujet dû à sa sensibilité mais voici selon moi, les sanctions adéquates que City devrait percevoir pour les 114 charges coupables des 115 auditionnées🧑‍💼: • Une exclusion de la PL et EFL, les envoyant automatiquement en 5ème division conformément à l’article W.51 de la PL. • Une autorisation de la FIFA qui permettrait aux joueurs de résilier leur contrat respectif (jeunes compris) même lorsqu’il n’y a aucune clause dans leurs contrats. • Une interdiction de transfert de MINIMUM 3 ans et ce à tous les étages sportifs (jeunes compris). • Une déduction de points d’un minimum de 50 points pour les sceller à la 20ème place de la saison 26/27, les empêchant de percevoir un maximum de revenu via les droits TV avant la relégation administrative. • Des compensations indémnitaires aux clubs lésés durant les années concernées à la hauteur du dommage subi. D’où l’action légale entre les clubs de PL. • Une amende vraisemblablement déraisonnable de plusieurs centaines millions d’euros. C’est une sanction très symbolique au vu des moyens financiers que les dirigeants possèdent. • Un licenciement et un bannissement à vie de fonctions semblables à tous les acteurs, dirigeants et actionnaires de City ainsi donc une dissolution du City Group. • Pour finir, une publication de la décision de justice. Rappelons que 54 des 115 charges étaient liés à des informations financières inexactes et à des falsifications comptables. En plus de ne collaborer à AUCUNE enquête. Rendez-vous compte de la folie. Je ne suis pas pour le retrait des titres remportés car on ne peut pas retirer ce qu’il s’est passé sur le rectangle vert. CEPENDANT, il faut s’appuyer dessus pour établir les sanctions. On parle d’un club qui a sali l’image du football anglais et manqué de respect aux clubs qui se sont efforcés à bien travailler durant toutes ces années. Alors je ne vous demande pas cela souvent mais prière de partager et liker ce post au maximum, c’est important de ne pas toujours parler de ce que le terrain produit. Parce que c’est aussi ça le football.

Sid Vicious recorded "My Way" in 1978 for The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, the film closely associated with Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McLaren. Rather than imitating Frank Sinatra's elegant interpretation, Vicious transformed the classic into a deliberately chaotic and confrontational performance. His sarcastic delivery and the song's explosive finale perfectly embodied the rebellious and self-destructive image that made him one of punk's most notorious figures. Released in 1978 as part of The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle soundtrack, "My Way" was originally adapted into English by Paul Anka from the 1967 French song Comme d'habitude and was famously recorded by Frank Sinatra in 1969. Although Sid Vicious's version was never a major chart hit, it became one of the most iconic reinterpretations in punk history, thanks to its provocative music video and its enduring status as a symbol of the punk movement's irreverent spirit.

It was confirmed to me this morning by a prominent football journalist informed by a former FAI board member that the UK-based player agency Unique Sports Group (@UniqueSG) threatened the Irish players yesterday that they'd never play for US-owned UK clubs if they refused to play

FUN FACT: We are paying more money for worse versions of ALMOST everything because private equity firms buy up beloved brands, cut product quality to the bone, hike prices to squeeze out margins, and leave a trail of debt-ridden husks behind.

Re Man City… The notion of ‘too big to fail’ and ‘might is right’ has to be driven from OUR game - as should all brazen corruption. Or next will be a money-laundering free-for-all, or worse, abolishing PL relegation/promotion

Sick of seeing awful club rankings where everyone somehow manages to put their team 15 places too high 😂 So I asked ChatGPT to rank clubs purely on history and results, with top-flight success weighted far more heavily than lower-league success. This is what it came up with 👇

All these City fans, the players worked hard, the football was great blah blah blah. If City hadn’t cheated the players wouldn’t be there in the first fucking place. Surely that’s the whole point.

The general vibe from Man City fans on X is ‘don’t worry, we’ll brazen this out’ - essentially ‘loadsamoney’ will fix it… I think they are whistling in the wind - this is existential for the PL If the punishment is weak, then it’s game over for the financial rules as all other rich clubs will use this as a benchmark for cheating legally
