Blue is forever the best team in the land! Season ticket holder East stand block 102.

So let's get this right, Man City owners are guilty of investing £1BN in the football club & £10BN in Gtr Manchester & treated like criminals by the football authorities.

Meanwhile Man Utd owners have taken £1BN out of the club and are treated as heroes!

[JM Seed @mattseed1]

The central pillar of the Premier League's case against City is that Sheikh Mansour secretly funded substantial portions of the Club's sponsorship agreements with Abu Dhabi-owned companies, artificially inflating City's commercial revenue.

City denies this, maintaining that the financial support came from the Abu Dhabi government—the sponsoring companies' shareholder—not from City's owner. That distinction matters.

Mansour privately owns City through ADUG. The Abu Dhabi government owns the sponsoring companies. They're not legally the same entity, even though Mansour is well-connected with the government.

And it bears repeating that state-owned sponsorships are hardly unusual. For example, Arsenal's principal sponsor, Emirates Airline, is wholly owned by Dubai's government. Arsenal also received millions from Visit Rwanda. Manchester United's sponsors include state-owned Malaysia Airlines and Visit Malta.

There's nothing inherently improper about a government providing financial support to companies it owns. So if, as City insists, the sponsorship money at issue came from the Abu Dhabi government, not ADUG, the foundation of the Premier League's disguised owner-funding allegation collapses.

So did the anonymous commission get this right? What's so frustrating is that the media and punditry seem almost entirely uninterested in this question.

Instead, we get relentless calls for severe punishment before City's appeal has even been heard, based on blind faith in an anonymous Premier League panel citing undisclosed and unexplained evidence.

That's why City supporters need to keep asking the questions everyone else seems determined to ignore.

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

JD Vance dismissing Britain as ‘some random country’ which hasn’t ’fought a war for 30/40 years’ is beneath contempt. British forces fought alongside US troops in Iraq (twice) and Afghanistan. In recent years. Is he stupid? Or just ignorant?

[Nicky Price @nuttynicky1906]

@piersmorgan Just wow
