Etihad are going public, which means that City are innocent according to the Mirror:
I like how the owner is not allowed to directly finance his club but would have no problems using one of his companies to do so.

Arenât the charges in the past.
So not sure how this is relevant.
I am concerned that they will get away with it, or will just get a minor slap on the wrist, relative to the wrongdoing.
The sport has grown, which is a great success story, but in allowing nation states to own clubs it gets a lot more complicated. The ability of the sport itself to run a tight shop, in the face of the legal resources of a nation state, and indeed the wielding of soft power of said nation state as it invests into the country, seems all but impossible.
I fear a most unsatisfactory outcome.
If that is the case, opposing fans need to have a simple and robust chant, âCheats, cheats, cheats, cheats, cheatsâŚâ and protest that way at the least.

You are right to be concerned.

Yes, I concur. It is inevitable.
And if it does happen, I do like the idea of a constant chant of âcheats, cheats, cheatsâ from every set of opposing fans for every game. Skyâll love it

Theyâll get a punishment in the form of a massive fine, along with some kind of ban which in footballing terms will affect them for no more than a season.
The whole world will then label the Premier League winners that season as having an asterisk beside it as the best team werenât there to challenge.
Nauseating prospect, but probably the most realistic.

Iâve never understood the argument about this stuff. If you look at only 2 games then yeah, wed-Sun seems better than wed-sat. But there is a third game after that as well. This time if the season one day less rest for one game is more more day rest for the other.

Grealish will either be discarded or a bit part player. 100M not utilized well by the genius Guardiola, along with many other moves that would sink another team. But they will roll on, impervious to mistakes, insulated by the money and the depth they have.

Manchester City deducted eight points for breach of Premier League profit and sustainability rules this season. Sanctions for previous seasons in the next hearing.
Premier League statement confirms that âManchester City have been charged with numerous breaches of financial rules following 4-year investigationâ.
âMore sanctions if found proven include points deductions or even expulsion from the leagueâ, The Times reports.
Manchester City statement on this story:
âManchester City FC is surprised by the issuing of these alleged breaches of the Premier League Rules, particularly given the extensive engagement and vast amount of detailed materials that the EPL has been provided with.

As such we look forward to this matter being put to rest once and for allâ.
