We would kindly ask that consideration is also given to the tone and manner in which supporters are treated. When fans state they don't wish to be interviewed this should be respected without exception. We fully back the City Women's OSC and will always look out for our supporters. (3/3)

Whilst we acknowledge the huge media interest in these events, the Trust would like to remind reporters attending this evening's and Sunday's games (vs Madrid and Arsenal) that supporters are not privy to any information not already in the public domain. (2/3)

Following Manchester City's victory against Charlton in the WSL, the Trust was disappointed to hear reports of two young City supporters repeatedly pestered for comments relating to the ongoing PL case by journalists in a manner many felt uncomfortable with. (1/3)

Within an hour of the verdict dropping, we had an emergency meeting with @thefsa.bsky.social to assist us as we begin to consider our next steps, and what this means for the Trust, the City fanbase and our Club going forward as we await final outcomes of any sanctions and appeal.

We are still digesting the full findings of the independent Commission, released by the PL in redacted format, and we encourage Blues to do the same.

The Citizens Trust has read both the Premier League’s statement on the verdict which finds Manchester City guilty of the majority of the charges, and the Club’s statement in rebuttal that reiterates their innocence and intent to appeal.

City fans absolutely should be proud of what we've done in recent years. Blues became the biggest regular donor to the biggest foodbank in Manchester, and fans have fought to win concessions on pricing, disabled parking, FA kickoff times and more. All of this only worked because fans came together.
