The thing is this could easily start again. This investigation only went to 2018 and they gave themselves over £100m that year. Are we really expected to believe they just stopped instantly that year? As if.
-
There's been rumours for a while that part of the delays were the panel wanting/thinking there were going to speaking to witnesses that didn't turn up or engage. Mancini was one. Helpfully he just announced his double contract in a press conference. Thatll help city's appeal..... Ha.

The released pdf. There even a table showing it by year. Look at bottom of page 20 https://resources.premierleague.pulselive.com/premierleague/document/2026/09/29/9bb3f063-6312-4d15-a1f1-77280d356a49/Premier-League-Manchester-City-independent-Commission-Redacted-Core-Decision.pdf

£950.19M in commercial income from sponsors. £119.25M actually came from sponsors. £830.94M paid by Abu Dhabi United Group.
-
So they had a seperate company pay for image rights for players off the books, with money directly from the club owners. Never made any sense whatsoever thdt our wage bill was apparently higher than cities.
-
This table is f***ing mental. I'm so angry. We'd have won everything under the sun if they hadn't cheated.
-
Would include us. We'd have sponsorship bonuses for winning the league. And the money you get from the CL is directly based of your position in the league the previous year. So we'll have missed out on millions there. Same with Chelsea, united etc
-
Strip the titles. Relegate them. Ban them from the premier league for the same number of season as they cheated in. Simples.
-
Iriola saying Ekitike could be back for last 2 CL games which means mid January. Makes not going after Isak cover make a bit more sense.
-
It's a bit mental how few games he's played in his career.
-
Least the logo is inoffensive
-
Surely there's zero chance of etikeke playing before February.
-
Well we've registered him for the first phase of the CL which is a bit of a surprise.
-
If he's lumping Bradley and Ekitike together I doubt the fit by November talk is true for Bradley.
-
It's just the unwritten/unsaid cost to the journo. If you want more access for stories later on, print this s*** for us.
-
People in charge at Liverpool once again declare they are the most cleverest people ever, alas everyone else is too dumb to realise it. Just like last year. And the year before.
-
The silence around Bradley has been a bit weird. There's been constant rumours his injury was a complicated and ultra bad one. But the club aren't really talking about it him like it is.
-
Surely Chelsea will be f***ed if they get into Europe next year. How could they possibly be compliant with the rules
-
So after all this time our right wing plan was basically just sign Diomande. Then we were clueless.
-
Can't ever break the tradition of ending a summer window with 2 player less than we need.
-
Didn't palace already turn down £50m from us? They'll want mega money.
-
Would take ndiaye over Sarr all day long
-
Good job we sold Diaz when we did. Can't have 28 year old players hanging around eh? Especially ones who are settled, quality and can play across the front 3. Definitely don't need anyone like that.
-
We shouldn't ever sell a player to city
-
I'd really hope we could sign Minteh without selling Gakpo. But I doubt it. I assume the rumours of rayan's release clause being 84m instead of 130m in January are nonsense, otherwise we'd probably be offering them a premium to try and get it done now. Or atleast noises about it.
