Happy New Month, family. 🍂
This October, may closed doors open, may your effort match your reward and may good news find you and your household. You will not labour in vain.
Three months left. Enough time to turn the year around.
October will be kind to us. Amen 🙏
🚨 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)
🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: For the FIRST TIME in 18 YEARS, Cristiano Ronaldo remained on the bench for the full 90 minutes of an official Portugal match last night. 😳
The last time it happened was at EURO 2008.
🚨🇵🇹 Jorge Jesus on why Cristiano Ronaldo was unused sub vs Norway: “I was thinking of Cristiano to come in… but then the game dictates other things.”.
“I felt it wasn't the right time to put him in the game, there are still two more games but it wasn't to protect him physically. He was ready”.
