A £900m bombshell … and the rest

Arseblog reacts to a reported Premier League statement indicating Manchester City was found guilty of 114 of 115 financial charges. The findings from an independent Commission established that the club used schemes to artificially inflate revenues and lower costs by more than £900 million between 2010 and 2018, concealing its true financial state from regulators.

The writer argues that the scale of the deceit fundamentally compromised sporting integrity and calls for punishments extending directly to the club's ownership. While Manchester City reportedly maintains its innocence and holds the right to appeal until October 2, potential sanctions will be determined in a subsequent private hearing.
