Roberto Mancini is very likely to be aredacted name in the City judgement. Relating to the off books payment of his contract, which has tax and NI implications. I suspect the Italian federation should start thinking about a world where he will have to step down as Azzurri coach

Manchester City cheated Premier League rules, the Commission found. Did it also cheat HMRC? We've examined the decision and leaked Mancini documents. We think City likely failed to pay £12m in tax. There should be a criminal investigation. Thread:

The Empty City @davidallengreen.bsky.social · 6h
NEW The Manchester City decision shows the costs of an aggressive litigation strategy How the club’s lack of cooperation and putting forward dishonest evidence have put the club at a disadvantage By me at the Empty City (£) emptycity.substack.com/p/the-manche...
The club is now not in a happy place legally.

Not only has it been found to be in breach of various regulations, the commission ruling uses terms like “sham”, “disguise” and “conceal” in respect of those breaches, on the basis of “strong, cogent evidence”.

But this post is not about that evidence. This post is about what the club did once it knew it faced an investigation about those matters.

It made a decision not to cooperate.

It made a decision to put forward witnesses to provide evidence on key points which was found by the commission to be dishonest.

Those were aggressive decisions the club made once it know it knew it was in regulatory and legal peril.

And it would have done so knowing the likely consequences of those decisions in the findings of the commission.

Why does everyone keep saying let's see what happens at appeal and emphasising the City right to challenge...they're guilty. That's the finding. That isn't going to be reassessed at appeal.

A lovely send off for Edin Džeko last night, his last international game. Game stopped with a guard of honour there was a drone show. In my opinion one of the most underappreciated or rated players of the last 20years. Feel like if he ended up at Bayern or somewhere he would have scored hundreds

The idea we allow fraud and corruption in sport to completely undermine the premier league and beyond because we can’t lose money from the Middle East is the whole problem. It is the problem that started when Abramovich landed then Abu Dhabi and Qatar. Europe sold football. Infantino still is

How can you be concerned about losing owners that probably committed industrial scale fraud. We should be saying football needs protecting with legitimate owners. The ramblings on about Everton after in a way suggesting City may be innocent also dreadful.

Quite, it’s a bit like saying we don’t like the offside rule, and preferred football before it had offside, so we paid off some Lino’s to not enforce it for us, and we think that’s fair enough.

There are people saying oh its the rules that are the issue they needed breaking in business you invest. No. An owner can't secretly invest in a business. Fraud and false accounting. In business their model wouldn't survive. Also they signed up to the rules

Man City could well go on to win the UCL this year. What a mess and what will those clubs like Milan and Roma who were forced to sell their best players for ffp and ended up in the wilderness for years? While their league's revenue dwindled as a result and another grew.

When you read the independent commission’s findings what comes across is the City “project” was failing, they were not taking off so came up with a systematic way of increasing funding to the club and reducing costs, all fake. Without that the whole thing would have withered in the vine.

Is a pity it is different organisations as really the points penalty should lead to relegation this season and then be another -30 next year in the championship. Going down for one season and then coming back to money is no punishment. Also they should be forced to change owner
