🚨 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)
🚨⚠️ Ismaila Sarr, out of Crystal Palace squad as he has agreed personal terms with Galatasaray and wants to join the Turkish club.
No club to club agreement as #CPFC want to keep Sarr but Ismaila keeps pushing for the move.

🚨 Chelsea consider Enzo Fernández no longer available at £120m as terms were made clear to his camp since May — effectively agreed as a ‘release clause’.
#CFC happy to keep Enzo and continue with him.
❗️ Manchester City mantained daily active talks with Enzo’s camp, in last 48 hours too.
Up to Man City if they want to try again on different conditions.
Lionel Messi’s letter for his father. ❤️🩹
Dad, I still can’t believe that you’ve gone. I don’t fall, or rather, I don’t want to fall. It’s very hard for me to imagine that I’m not going to see you anymore, that we’re not going to talk anymore. I know you were suffering and that it’s for the best, but you left too soon. We still had a lot left to enjoy together.
You asked me so much to play in the last World Cup, and it was in the days just before it started that you got the worst. It was the first time you weren’t going to be at a tournament, but Mom told me that you were going to get better and that you’d be well enough to travel. I told you we were going to reach the final so you could travel.
Every time a match ended I waited for and missed your message. That’s when I realized the situation was really bad. Even so, I didn’t stop thinking about going as far as possible, to buy you time and so you could see a match. We reached the final and you couldn’t be there.
I wanted to win it to bring it to you and show you a new one. I couldn’t; my legs wouldn’t give any more. This time I tried to go against my body, but I couldn’t. I never managed to feel good.
When I arrived you thought we had lost the final on penalties. We couldn’t talk about any of everything that happened. You couldn’t enjoy anything.
We weren’t champions, but you have no idea how much we enjoyed every single match. Once again, you were right: I had to be there and play it.
I’m telling you this because it was the only thing we couldn’t talk about, since you already know everything else. We talked every day and saw each other whenever we could, given my commitments.
I don’t know what I’m going to do without you, I don’t know how to go on. I only played football and now I have quite a few doubts about whether I’ll keep doing it for much longer.
You were by my side from the beginning; there was so little left until the end. Why couldn’t you hold on that little bit more so we could finish together?
I know your happiness was seeing your family well, your wife, your children, and above all, without the others finding out, watching me play…
It was always like that since I was little. You would take me to all the training sessions as soon as you got home from work. For many of them Mum took me because you were working.
Obviously you never missed a single match. How you suffered watching me and how you enjoyed it, even though you never gave me many compliments.
You were dad, friend and representative.
You were always the person you needed to be in every moment and you never got anything wrong. Beyond a few reproaches or arguments, you were always right. In the end it always turned out the way you said.
I’m going to miss you a lot, but you’ll always be present, and especially in the upbringing of my children, because I teach them and raise them the way you both did with me.
Rest in peace and look after us from above the way you did down here. Thank you for everything.
I love you, Dad. ❤️

Det, du har gjort, er noget af det grimmeste, jeg endnu har set i dansk politik!
Du havde valget mellem
🔵 Den politik, du gik til valg på + DF
🔴 Den forkerte politik + Enhedslisten
Og du – Danmarks seneste borgerlige statsminister! – valgte gud hjælp mig Enhedslisten!!
Du valgte at frarøve Danmark de ansvarlige, fornuftige løsninger og gav i stedet magten til socialisterne.
ENE OG ALENE for at få din ministerpost!
Føj!
Arsenal fans had to watch Chelsea win the PL five times, win the CL twice, complete Europe and win the club World Cup to complete football.
Let our little brothers have one season to celebrate
🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Chelsea fan group announce TWO new PROTESTS.
1) Before the FA CUP FINAL - A march will get underway from 1.30pm at Wembley Way, featuring a large banner that will focus on BlueCo, but this time, also the Sporting Directors.
2) DURING the Spurs Match - Fans are urged to take action on the 22nd minute, the year (2022) that BlueCo took over, by turning around with your backs on the game for 1 minute and chant “We want our Chelsea back”
The protests are said to be not stopping until change is forced, and will not be halted based on any reports leading up to the protests on the next manager’s name.
Roman Abramovic was the best owner of a footballer club that I’ve seen in my life time he genuinely cared about his club.
Chelsea going from him to Blue&Co is one of the biggest downgrades you’ll ever see.
They’ve completely stripped the club of its DNA.
Roman Abramovic would’ve taken a helicopter above the stadium and sent a military team to arrest this PE teacher mid game, I’m crying man we’ve lost all identity 😂
BLUECO want you to like GARNACHO when you’ve watched HAZARD
They want you to like DELAP when you’ve watched DROGBA
They want you to like FOFANA when you’ve watched TERRY
Never lower your standards Chelsea fans
Win lose or draw BLUECO OUT🚨🚨
