The organisation that is accusing City with their numerous charges have had it established that they have ran an illegal rule book from 2021, have acted in bad faith and dragged their feet on requests by City. They allow other clubs to gain unfair advantages from interest free director loans whilst coming after one club for how much their manager got paid in 2009 when their was no PSR and player image rights which UEfA could have gone after as it wasn’t time barred but didn’t see any issue with.
The PL has the ear of clubs like the rags and Spurs who are two clubs with some of the most significant amounts of debt in European football have the PLs ear pushing their agenda. With their other chums in North London and Merseyside they have the Richard Masters in their pocket doing their bidding for them with the associated parties fiasco an established fact which could end up getting even more painful for the PL by the end of 2025.
It’s not been established that City have done anything wrong warranting any form of financial or sporting sanction. It has been established that the Premier League knowingly or unknowingly operates illegal rule books and advices their members that it’s ok to survive on interest free loans to get round PSR. If they can say City’s accounts are wrong for over a decade, they should now be running the rule over other accounts of other clubs which will be a lot worse in relation to PSR and back dating it. They won’t because it will mean they will have to sanction some of their favoured clubs. It’s check mate from our legal team, Richard Masters has ran out of road.
