City launch legal action against the Premier League | City win APT case (pg901)

I got blocked by Delaney months ago when the subject of sportswashing came up. Basically i said sportswashing is pumping money into a business to give it a good image.
It was nothing to do with state ownership. sheik mansour getting Etihad to sponsor City is no different to saudi telecom trying to give their state a positive image by being associated with utd since before our takeover.
If one set of money is bad then so is the other. Its like saying that boxers who are sponsored by Daniel kinahan are more morally acceptable than if they boxed out of the gym he owns
 
I imagine, since the rules have been deemed unlawful, the Premier League can't just retrospectively change them and punish Arsenal, Brighton etc. by apply market interest rates to shareholder loans.

But...
This also means that they can't punish other clubs under those old unlawful rules as then you are apply one rule for one club (Man City, Newcastle etc) and not another.

So...
You have to "disapply" all the APT rules and start again, paying compensation to those impacted by the enforcement of the unlawful rules in the first place.
