Just a call out for Arsenal fans before I retire for the evening
“YOU’RE FUCKING CHEATS”

Interest free loans are definitely a creature of sports-washing.

Cheats.

It is now our duty to stop them and dipper.

What, for adhering to the rules that were in place at the time? Good luck with that. I'd also say City's biggest battle is yet to be won. Win that and feel free to lecture morality to other clubs, but until then best to keep your head down old chap.

City...tearing cartels apart again.

City...tearing cartels apart again.

You do know that City originally voted in favour of the shareholder loans right? In this latest case they argued that these provided an unfair advantage if the APT deal approval process wasn't amended by the PL, not that these loans were unfair to start with.

In any case I do agree that being given a loan at zero percent interest is an unfair advantage (best of luck trying to get a mortgage or business loan from the bank at zero interest) so if clubs have to pay interest on it fair enough but they are effectively just paying this money to their owner anyway and will have to account for it in their books moving forward. Probably the owner just buys additional assets for the club with this cash and it gets written off that way anyway.

You've got to think the Glazers will be wanking themselves silly at the present moment having now uncovered a new way to extract even more money out of United.
