The imponderable in all of this though is the Sala situation and I believe that's the most likely reason for the inertia around the club at the moment. I read recently that City are planning a further appeal against the Arbitration in Sports verdict - it's hard to see how this can benefit us and I think we should just accept the verdict and look to the future now, but I fully accept that it's easy for me to say that as it would cost me nothing.

The Sala situation leaves a bad taste in the mouth regarding the club. Throwing a lot of money in various legal costs to ‘save’ money on the transfer fee, it’s ludicrous. Terrible analogy and I apologise in advance of this part of my post. Id imagine we’ve all bought something that when brought home doesn’t do what it says on the tin and we've been livid with ourselves for buying a dud but at the time we wanted it, paid for it, ultimately never used it but took it on the chin. Ok, it wouldn’t have cost as much as Sala’s transfer fee but everything is in ratio and the City are a multi million pound concern.

City, be the bigger man, pay the bill, whilst issuing a full statement with observations re. The McKay’s involvement and various other discrepancies. It would, hopefully, help the club’s current PR, which in some circles, I’d imagine is in tatters.
