The idea that Man City will be punished beyond a meaningless fine is absurd. Pep Guardiola has donned his tinfoil hat but the Premier League always crumbles. JohnnyTheNic
to invent 101 instances of rule breaking over nine years. Of course there isn’t. Guardiola was making that up. They have also not yet been found guilty of any of the 101 accusations, even if the manager says they have.
Asking for compensation for damaging City’s reputation if they’re found not guilty is a bit rich though. This isn’t some sort of fall from grace in anyone’s eyes. Regardless of the latest accusations, no-one outside of the fanbase thought City were some sort of squeaky clean, holy club any more than they think that about any of the elite teams. One way or another, there is no clean Big Money, it’s just stained to different degrees. You sleep with the devil and the devil will take you away.
The club’s reputation, such as it is, was already fatally wounded in many eyes, given their owners. Some don’t care about that, others are appalled and the appalled are looking forward to seeing them field Paul Dickov and Mike Summerbee in the National League. While you’re at it, get Franny Lee in – he might win you a few penalties. Asa Hartford probably won’t pass the medical though. Jamie Pollock will need a good pre-season.is because of the financial model it represents.
There is nothing at all for Guardiola to worry about, of course. It’s all pointless paranoia. The Premier League has facilitated everything City has done. They encouraged it when they gave out a siren call to billionaires regardless of reputation or motive; they flocked in and bought up some of the country’s great old clubs like it was another tasteless gold tower block in the desert.
Amazing coincidence that the Premier League, which is lobbying against an independent regulator of football, charges Manchester City for breach of financial rules 24 hours before the government releases the white paper on football governance reform.
