I assume they retain an interest but are waiting to see the outcome from this investigation first before launching anything official. This way, as they’ll have limited resources to do their own investigation they can see what evidence comes into the public sphere first.
He knew but still allowed UEFA to go easy on them and didn’t attempt to relitigate even when more of their lies came to light. A shithouse of the highest order.
That is sort of what happens when you lose at the highest level of appeal, in this case CAS. The insane thing is that those additional lies don’t constitute a basis for an appeal, because the CAS judgement fully acknowledged the dishonesty and obstruction of City’s defence.
Guardiola taking offence at Ceferin saying UEFA was right to sanction City.
News flash Pep, the UEFA-CAS proceeding is over. The fact that City is guilty is not in dispute. CAS did not set that finding aside, they set aside the sanction. Ceferin is well within his rights to say they were right to sanction City, even if CAS decided to set aside the sanction because it took too long to be put in place.
Pep Guardiola has told Aleksander Ceferin to “respect the procedure” in response to the Uefa president’s comments regarding Manchester City alleged Financial Fair Play breaches.
LOL, I hadn’t realized this, but Girona winning la liga could potentially bar city from the CL next season. We’ve seen UEFA have a pretty weak enforcement of related clubs not being allowed to play against each other, but the way City does it is so tight and official that there is no way to untangle them. So, only one can qualify next year. The way UEFA determine which of the related clubs get in is based on who finishers higher in their league, so if Girona win their league City will be barred form the CL unless they win ours (and then get the spot over Girona due to a higher UEFA coefficient).
one of my friends is a local club president with 2500 registered players, and is just now making her first trip to Europe (work related). is taking in Atletico v Girona in April.
no, it’s a local club. with the huge amount of youth participation here it’s not really surprising that you can have 2500 players in one club. But that club goes all the way from U-4 to Masters Over-45 teams
