🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: Premier League confirm an independent Commission has found Manchester City GUILTY OF ALL CHARGES related to serious breaches of the Premier League’s financial rules over a nine-season period, and the majority of charges in relation to its failure to co-operate with the League’s investigation.
The club has the right to appeal the independent Commission’s findings and has until Friday 2 October to exercise that right.
The Premier League Board’s intention is that the full process (including any appeals and publication of relevant decisions) is concluded as soon as possible.
The independent Commission found that between Seasons 2009/10 and 2017/18:
- Manchester City arranged ‘sham’ contracts (which misrepresented the true agreement between the parties) with a number of its commercial partners, as well as relying on ‘sham’ agreements with others, to artificially inflate the club’s revenues and reduce its costs
- The club filed misstated accounts and concealed the true state of its finances from its auditors and football regulators
- Manchester City was significantly in breach of both the Premier League’s and UEFA’s spending limits
- During the Premier League’s investigation, Manchester City committed multiple breaches of its duties of co-operation and utmost good faith towards the League (three of the four alleged breaches were upheld)
Old Monk is NOT rum, according to FSSAI.
FSSAI has asked Old Monk to call itself a “Rum Flavoured Spirit” instead of “Rum”.
This is because instead of using actual rum, Old Monk uses a neutral alcohol spirit as its base, and puts an artificial rum flavour and caramel colour to give it its rum like taste and appearance.
The same thing happens with Indian whiskey. Even though India is the world’s largest consumer of whiskey, a lot of what is sold as whiskey in India isn’t real whiskey.
Many whiskey companies in India also take a neutral alcohol spirit and add artificial whiskey flavouring and caramel colour to it.
And that is also why most Indian spirits are not officially recognized as whiskey in markets like the EU, UK, and US.
Let me make one thing clear. Whether you drink real rum or a rum-flavoured spirit, both are unhealthy. In fact, according to the WHO, no amount of alcohol is completely safe for health.
Note: Old Monk may contain up to 5% actual rum in the neutral alcohol after adding artificial rum flavour and colour.

🚨🌍 Ismaila Sarr’s agent Diomansy Kamara statement.
“Statement from Ismaila Sarr’s agent Diomansy Kamara: “The cases of Ismaila Sarr and Lamine Camara must all interrogate us.
“We have to get out of this logic where the African player can sometimes give the feeling that he is just a commodity: you buy it, you set its price, you negotiate its future and, too often, your will seems to go to the background.
“Our African players deserve respect. The respect of their work. The respect of their career. Respecting their ambitions. The respect of their voices.
“A transfer shouldn't just be a matter of two clubs and numbers. Behind every contract, there's a man, a career, dreams and life choices.
“The fact that clubs can sometimes have the final word is a reality of professional football. But one question remains: what about the career and the will of the player?
“The player must be able to be heard and respected in the decisions that determine his future.
“Let's never forget what's important: behind every success, it's the players who write history first.”
