    If it wasn’t, we would have been hit with a points deduction.

    The case in ongoing, so no, you wouldn’t have.

    Notice how all of your favorite pundits haven’t brought up those charges in a while. Probably because they know it’s all bs.

    If we ignore the ridiculous ‘favourite’ part.

    They brought it up when it first happened. Nothing of note has happened yet, so why would they keep bringing it up?

    And in the UK people tread carefully around things that are alleged because they don’t want to get in trouble. You have to say alleged, but usually people just steer clear of it. So what exactly do you expect them to keep saying? Talking about it just opens them up to issues. Why not wait until a result?

    It’s crazy that instead of thinking why people might not go on live TV in the UK and talk about alleged things all the time when there’s been no updates about it, you just assume it’s because it’s bullshit.

      I mean imo it should be brought up, wasn’t mentioned at all during city’s treble celebrations last year. Instead the media were trying to present it as this wholesome story. Was kind of sickening.

        I do agree that it should, but also with the laws in the UK broadcasters just aren’t going to take the risk, and I understand that.
