October 22, 201510 yr In today's episode of Strange But True: Manchester City have been reported to Uefa after fans were heard booing the Champions League anthem before their win 2-1 over Sevilla on Wednesday. Match delegate Geir Thorsteinsson, the chairman of the Iceland FA, detailed the incident and disciplinary proceedings have now been opened, with the case set to be heard in November. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34603517 Bets on City getting a bigger punishment for this than Dynamo Kiev get for racist crowd trouble in our game against them? That is ridiculous, they surely cannot be charged for that. The Champions League anthem is just a silly little song, it holds no real meaning to anything.

October 22, 201510 yr Author and they boo'd because A) it is a protest against Michel Platini's role in the FIFA corruption scandal or B) they hate playing in Europe because they keep on screwing it up I think City fans do it because of the harsh FFP sanctions UEFA gave them and the virtual let off CSKA Moscow got despite their fans directing monkey chants at Toure. How booing is now worthy of a disciplinary investigation is anyone's guess though, up there with Jose being charged for sarcasm.
October 23, 201510 yr and they boo'd because A) it is a protest against Michel Platini's role in the FIFA corruption scandal or B) they hate playing in Europe because they keep on screwing it upIt's definitely leaning more towards B but I agree with FC that it's also to do with FFP.Also agree with FC that been punished for it is a f**king joke. How can you be punished for booing the bloody CL theme? It's not like it's a national anthem. Edited October 23, 201510 yr by Bobbywoodhogan
October 23, 201510 yr Even if it was a national anthem, it'd be a joke to punish anyone for booing it!
October 23, 201510 yr I think City fans do it because of the harsh FFP sanctions UEFA gave them and the virtual let off CSKA Moscow got despite their fans directing monkey chants at Toure. How booing is now worthy of a disciplinary investigation is anyone's guess though, up there with Jose being charged for sarcasm. It's probably B) and the FFP saction together. Which wasn't harsh as I see it, just a big fine, no suspension or ban from the CL.
October 23, 201510 yr Author It's probably B) and the FFP saction together. Which wasn't harsh as I see it, just a big fine, no suspension or ban from the CL. Restricted their spending to only £50m and reduced their squad size in the Champions League. Had a massive impact on their season and greatly benefitted ourselves.

October 23, 201510 yr I like how they bring up that Cole testified for JT, but don't mention that camel face got done for racist abuse towards Cole. I don't think it gets brought up enough that Ashley Cole gets a £90,000 for calling the FA a bunch of twat but Rio only got £10,000 for racially abusing anotherprofessional. Essentially insulting the FA is worse than racism.... well, to the FA
October 24, 201510 yr Pizza's all round! I'll phone Dominoes. Order me a few beers while you're at it, I need them. Edited October 24, 201510 yr by Valerie

October 24, 201510 yr As much as I hate to say it. Arsenal are a joy to watch. Rafa & Wenger winning league titles this season is a real possibility Edited October 24, 201510 yr by ducavis
October 24, 201510 yr Says it all about Arsenal that the biggest cheer at The Emirates was when a stadium announcement said the last train to Liverpool had been cancelled.
October 24, 201510 yr Order me a few beers pints of romans best vodka while you're at it, I need them. corrected!
October 24, 201510 yr Just watching Everton. John Stones looks lost, a touch of Bambi on ice about him today - maybe we dodged a bullet with that one
