despite being owned by a state with which the UK has many interests economically will it be one of the cases that might go unpunished?
Hell will freeze over first
The fact it’s owned by a rich nation state doesn’t help
No.
No! The Premier League values its own brand too much. Even if they could prove wrongdoing would they publically admit their product has been tarnished for all these years? Everton were a compliant easy target to make it look like they’re tough.
It’d be the right thing to happen so I sure hope so.
No possibility, they will get away with it and unfortunately people will continue to talk about them as one of greatest teams of all time. Even though they cheated blatantly
I’m out of the loop, what happened that Manchester City would be in position to have stripped titles and demoted?
They allegedly paid their manager in 2010 or 2008 off the books as a consultant on £1.2M a year. Then there are also questions around 2 £15M sponsorship payments from 2010 or so. Then those charges compounded every year to become 115 breaches of finance rules. It’s really not as serious as predominantly the Man United, Liverpool and Arsenal fans are making it out to be.
I wonder why they might want titles stripping and City being demoted? It’s all about sporting fairness don’t you know, and the integrity of a league filled with hyper-rich multi-billionaire owners.
It’s much much more serious than you’re making it out to be. City had an unfair advantage. One that their owners covered up. Repeatedly. They deserve what’s coming to him
We are more likely to see the Epstein client list before we ever see Man City get actually punished for breaching FFP.
No. And brainwashed people will continue to credit Pep the “genius” for the success. 🤮
Pep the bald fraud. Starting up fake sponser companies so he can buy whatever player he wants 😡
No chance . It will break the premier league.
All foreign owners will leave. Already decreaee values after robbery or roman.
Zero chance the FA has the courage to actually punish City.
At this point Pep would probably love a cheeky points deduction!! If they won the league it would be one of his greatest achievements
No
you just answered your question
being owned by a state with which the UK has many interests economically
Juventus we’re caught red handed paying off refs to cheat in games… different circumstance
