Wasn't Harris losing his mind over the fact City had met government?! This sounds about as standard as these things go given City's current status.

Came across this write up about Tebas.
Few extracts:
LaLiga president Javier Tebas admits he has “denounced” Manchester City to UEFA and is now keenly observing whether an independent panel will find the club guilty following 115 charges for breaches of the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules.
“There is no denying there have been many irregularities,” said Tebas, speaking to Caught Offside in Saudi Arabia where he is visiting for the Club World Cup which Manchester City are favourites to win. “We already denounced these to UEFA. We don’t yet know what the decision from the Premier League’s case against the club will be, but Manchester City were already sanctioned by UEFA once, yet due to a formal defect they appealed at CAS.
Tebas is currently in Jeddah and working closely with Saudi authorities. LaLiga recently announced Visit Saudi as a partner and they are exploring opening a new Saudi office in 2024.
Yet back in 2020 Tebas told reporters in London that Saudi’s sports project is “whitewashing” and accused the government of being part of the pirate network channel ‘beoutQ’, which stole LaLiga games along with other high-profile sports rights from Qatari broadcaster beIN Sports.
“I said that [Saudi Arabia was using sport to ‘whitewash’] three years ago in London and back then I didn’t know enough about Saudi Arabia and their plans,” he said. “Now, I have changed my mind and seen great progress in Saudi. I have changed my mind generally about Saudi because the country has been changing a lot. It’s more open now and it would be a huge error not to change my opinion about Saudi as a result”
“I would accept a job to be the Saudi Pro League president!” Lol
Corrupt wanker.

Essentially, after all this time, reading threads, reports and opinions from those who deal with this sort of thing on a daily basis, the main reason i'm so confident about City being found not guilty of any accusation is this; City have got some exceptionally intelligent business minds in control of the club, and managed to ensure the day-to-day investment of the club wasn't affected by the new FFP rules by deploying said business brains to work within them.
Meanwhile the Premier League have got some exceptional dunces who cannot even fathom how such business practices are possible, so the only explanation in their minds as to how City could continue to invest in the squad is "fraud" and "underhand dealings". They can't understand business, so they attack those that do.
My only fears are of this independent panel and how impartial they are going to be, or if they too are filled with people who don't understand business or the law. I don't believe City have done anything wrong; our battle has mostly been about convincing ignorant people of that by explaining how our business practices work.

Erling, Alfie and his agent brought him to City they did an analysis based on specific criteria that would help him further his career, the outcome of that was that City were / are the best next step for him Although I didn't see the analysis I would be staggered if Omar Berrada was mentioned Omar's role would have been the commercial side of the deal for which he would have been part of the commercial team including CEO and CFO approved by the Chairman Winter is talking shiteI wouldn't necessarily take that as fact, Henry Winter did himself few favours in that article, painting Berrada as "the man who brought Haaland to City", as if Txiki, Pep and Soriano were mere bit-part players!

Fuck him, his carers should have switched off his Internet.It's a catch 22 with Nick Harris, I don't think there's any doubt he's now suffering with a Mental Illness. Is it o.k to take the piss still as the illness is just City related?

After all the reports recently and a slight change in tone from some in the media coinciding with Omar jumping to the rags I have a feeling the case is collapsing and hopefully we will hear something soon. I know another 12/18 months is estimated before a decision is reached but I can’t help think of the secrecy surrounding this whole case. It could drop anytime if the tribunal think the evidence is bullshit and impossible to prove. Instead focusing on the smaller issues to save face and stop the speculation and damage it is causing both City and the league.

I'll take you at face value and believe you're a Wrexham fan. I like the story there and from what I can see there is definitely a lot of jealousy and resentment. It's strange that Salford City don't seem to get the same shite - however, we all know why.Hey lads, Wrexham fan here - go easy! Like you, we're high on everyone's agenda since we came into some well deserved investment and attention. Jealousy is a huge part of daily life. Looking at Citys case though, do none of you believe you've never done anything wrong or is it just a huge conspiracy borne out of jealousy and envy? And if found guilty, what kind of punishment are you expecting? Cheers.
As for us, well you need to remember that this site isn't representative of all Blues. I've seen opinions on here that I've never heard at a match. I'm not sure there's a huge conspiracy against us in the PL, but I do think there's undue influence from a number of clubs and I genuinely believe the biggest danger to the game in this country are the American owners in the PL.
I think the punishments handed out aren't doing the league any good.

Clearly hes no idea of the charges Using a sporting analogy to describe a commercial accusationThis is from a ManUre season ticket holder on a work group chat I'm involved in. The situation that the Premier League has made for itself is fairly similar isn't it? ;)
'To some it up here’s an anology for you in idiot terms.
Tyson fury is the heavyweight champion of the world and has been for the last few years. In them years he has won every fight. However it has been found that in those years he wore 4 ounce gloves with no padding in them while his opponents all wore 10 ounce with padding.
Yeh he holds the belts but through being a cheating little twat'

Also why would Kellogs get involved in a multi million pound sponsorship deal amongst many others?So why have we increased revenues & Puma agreed to pay £65m a year for 10 years in 2019 ?
