So let's get this right, Man City owners are guilty of investing ยฃ1BN in the football club & ยฃ10BN in Gtr Manchester & treated like criminals by the football authorities.
Meanwhile Man Utd owners have taken ยฃ1BN out of the club and are treated as heroes!
Currently Newcastle, Villa, Forest, Everton (& prev. City) struggle to INVEST as owners NOT ALLOWED to inject funds into their clubs even to build value
Yet owners like the Glazers can EXTRACT cash & put it on club as debt OK
Cash extraction fine; investment effectively banned
Even after allegedly cheating, for all the contested seasons there are independent Deloitte numbers available, Man City still had less commercial revenue than Man Utd.
@theorangeledger@TheIFROfficial It seems to show a positive return of 13% for staying in the EPL but -99% for staying in the Championship. Is this 99% decline almost complete EV destruction? How do you get to -118% figures?
The alleged breaches involve payments to agents between 2009 and 2022 - during Roman Abramovich's time as owner.
The charges are primarily focused on transfers that happened between the 2010-11 and 2015-16 seasons, including deals for Eden Hazard, Samuel Eto'o and Willian.

@fires7arter@theorangeledger For which you got ยฃ100 million. Most I think would say we overpaid. Your results improved after Jack Grealish left didnโt they?
@Bertstofferson@dmoefc Let's see - maybe you'll be right - I suspect it will go higher than EPL as it is an argument over approx ยฃ1BN but maybe it won't
