Manchester City and Newcastle fear Probes by Europe

Postby Harry Dowd scored » Sat Aug 26, 2023 10:39 pm

Anybody know if this is another attempt to destabilise and damage our reputation?

Manchester City and Newcastle fear new probes by the European Commission after official complaints over owner 'state subsidies'

Firstly, we are no longer a member of the EU so the European Commission (an EU body) has ZERO duristiction here in the UK (garnered from a quick Google, feel free to correct me).

Secondly this part of the article tells me it's a non story written that has been done so for click bait and fuel for sad fuck arse fans of other clubs.....

Thirdly I suspect fear is not the emotion City are experiencing. More like eagerness to clear our name from unfounded smears like this one.

Which harris is this one? The one with the vendetta or the one with the grudge?

Given it's European complaint, you can add that cunt Tebas to the fray, especially now given the shit going down within in Spanish football, anything to deflect from their own dirty laundry?

Who’s the front runner to buy the SCUM. Will that include an exclusion zone from scrutiny.

Just another attempt by the usual suspects to destabilise their opponents.
It says that despite brexit, UK football clubs still come under EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation.
I imagine that's bollox, it's much more likely that they are saying that if we are in breach of EU rules, it will affect us in European competition.

Still, it's the Mail, so bollox is expected.

After the headline saying how frightened we are Harris tweets that he doesn’t expect much to come of it. Click….
