Manchester City charged with breaking financial rules by Premier League
The Premier League charges Manchester City with more than 100 breaches of its financial rules following a four-year investigation.www.bbc.com
What do we know so far?
- The Premier League has charged Manchester City with more than 100 breaches of its financial rules following a four-year investigation.
- It has referred the club to an independent commission over alleged rule breaches between 2009 and 2018.
- City are also accused of not co-operating since the investigation started in December 2018.
- City are yet to comment.
- If a club is found guilty of such charges, the commission can impose punishments including a fine, points deductions and even expelling a club from the Premier League.
The Premier League are terrified of the Sky Six.
They had the chance to punish them when they tried to join a Super League and didn't. They acted so weakly I wondered whether for the English clubs it was a Trojan Horse to gain more power because in the season's since VAR in their favour has been ridiculous as has the media bowing to them.
City will get a big fine they can easily pay or a future transfer ban giving them time to buy young talent in advance.
So if our club has done anything wrong we can point to their punishment. But perhaps we'll have new owners by then and remember... "You can't punish the fans"
