PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

There's another angle to that. It gave the owners of those clubs at the time an excuse not to spend big money on players. They were thinking of themselves and the here and now, and not about the future when other owners had bought them out who may have had more ambition than them.

With Reading bizarrely abstaining, just one more vote the other way would have been enough for it not to be brought in. A Kenwright-led Everton voted for it and now Everton find themselves with a 10 point deduction for breaching the very same rules that their former chairman voted in favour of.
And Reading are in a complete mess too now.
 
Dear Mr Burnham,
I accept you are a season ticket holder at Everton and are upset about the way your club has been treated. However, let me remind you, in case you have forgotten, what geographical area you are in charge of. Manchester City F.C. is in Manchester, the name is a big clue. The owners have put millions into your City and changed a chemical waste land into a vibrant area and yet they are, to use local terminology, getting the shit kicked out of them by the Premier League. Is it at all possible that for once you could represent people and businesses in Manchester. Just once isn't a lot to ask and then you can go back to moaning about how badly your own club is being fucked over.

Yours Blue Mist.

P.S. Why didn't you run for the Mayor of Liverpool job because you do fuck all for us.
That need sending to the MEN and publishing
Great post

Just need to add that they voted for it with the intention of screwing us over.
 
How they can prove Everton benefitted and did better with the players they signed compared to them not buying is pure speculation.
By that logic the Rags should have completed the Treble.

Money obsessed the PL and make it up as they go along.
I cannot remember the players names but recall seeing a piece about some of their recent signings scoring goals last season which won games to keep them up. Guess it's hard to prove as such but the clubs that may make a financial claim will point to this as evidence of advantage.
 
I think Burnham needs a formal warning. It’s one thing being able to keep your private life separate from your working life, but it’s not appropriate when you are in a high profile job in charge of one city and speaking out about a football club if another city, and not just that but making it public. I wouldn’t expect sunak to make a public statement about his club (probably Eton polo and tax dodgers club) and I don’t expect the mayor of Manchester to do it
