Where are you hearing that?I'm hearing Everton are getting a -12 point deduction. Zero chance City get away with this if Everton are punished
PL suits are obviously just fed up of Everton giving Liverpool 6pts every year and scraping out of the relegation battle.I'm hearing Everton are getting a -12 point deduction. Zero chance City get away with this if Everton are punished
Nothing reliable on this I don’t think.I'm hearing Everton are getting a -12 point deduction. Zero chance City get away with this if Everton are punished
Have you ever heard such bollocks in all your life?I read an unsubstantiated post on r/soccer saying only 12.8 million of this is from non UAE sponsors etc
It would be really interesting to know the actual sponsorship number that's not linked to the UAE in seriousness thoughHave you ever heard such bollocks in all your life?
They probably have some decent sponsors after what they’ve won but when you look at the crowds they draw on tv and in the stadium it’s not going to be many big sponsors. I think it’s mostly kids who consume City content on the likes of Tik tok because they play FIFA and want to see the likes of Haaland. You can’t really sell wine or business communication software to that crowd so they’re always going to have dodgy sponsors like crypto exchanges anyway because it’s cool with the kids.It would be really interesting to know the actual sponsorship number that's not linked to the UAE in seriousness though
More because they are companies that are much harder to find information on than because they are cool I would have thought.They probably have some decent sponsors after what they’ve won but when you look at the crowds they draw on tv and in the stadium it’s not going to be many big sponsors.

I like the idea of every team putting a young team of academy players out against them and City would win the title with 38 wins every season but it would be meaningless.If City get away with no serious punishment, the rest of football should just refuse to play them.
The other teams don't need to do anything for their titles to be meaningless. They've cheated, simple as.I like the idea of every team putting a young team of academy players out against them and City would win the title with 38 wins every season but it would be meaningless.
I like this idea too, but you would never get enough teams on board with it.I like the idea of every team putting a young team of academy players out against them and City would win the title with 38 wins every season but it would be meaningless.
They're already meaningless. If they're top I basically look at the league from second downwards and don't really consider them part of it. I've not seen even seen a single highlight or any football from them since the FA Cup final.I like the idea of every team putting a young team of academy players out against them and City would win the title with 38 wins every season but it would be meaningless.
Basically. Journalists have tried to go to the HQ of these sponsors and it's just empty buildings.Is it true that City have been caught with 'Sponsor Companies' which had headquarters based out of post boxes in some random locations?
If that's true how is that not as damning as it comes? Like why is everyone pretending this is normal and not doing anything about it?

If everyone fielded a youth team against them and let them have the 3 points without any fight they would be smashing the kids with double figure scorelines. How long would Haaland and co stay there when it is obviously such a sham.They're already meaningless.

Haaland probably already feels like this TBHIf everyone fielded a youth team against them and let them have the 3 points without any fight they would be smashing the kids with double figure scorelines. How long would Haaland and co stay there when it is obviously such a sham.
Wasn't it found that the profile picture of the supposed CEO of their betting partner was a stock image of "business woman"?One was apparently a terraced house in Watford with a turnover of about 15k and the MD’s picture was taken from Amazon
It seems since 2018 when they began to refuse to hand over their finances to the Premier League they haven't even bothered to hide it. They probably thought feck it either they do nothing or they sink them down the divisions, either way they're going to make the most of it while they can and pump as much money is as possible while keeping the vague appearance of legitimacy.One was apparently a terraced house in Watford with a turnover of about 15k and the MD’s picture was taken from Amazon
I'd take it one step further and just default their games, all of them. No need to give them fixtures to televise and easy wins to crow about. Just default, everything is a 3-0 for them but no TV coverage. That would get the sponsers scuttling away... oh.... well, some of them. That needs all the other teams to align on that though, which you can't imagine they would, unfortunately. It would send the strongest message.I like this idea too, but you would never get enough teams on board with it.
It seems this information was handed over by Chelsea themselves from what I am reading. Why did they do that?

They discovered it via the financial due diligence process during the takeover - and were proactive about it to help reach a settlement with UEFA. They were so alarmed that they earmarked funds specifically to pay off fines:They probably didn't realise what they were doing?
It makes you wonder what other clubs are doing as well. Chelsea (under Roman), City and Newcastle would be the obvious clubs with issues but I am sure other clubs won't be totally clean.They discovered it via the financial due diligence process during the takeover - and were proactive about it to help reach a settlement with UEFA.

Probably anyone who has bought a player from Africa or South America, in all honesty - there are so many dodgy agents / representatives out there.It makes you wonder what other clubs are doing as well.
