@jenks5ron.bsky.social@bbcsport.xmirror.bot #ffp Have I got this right… Man City defence is likely to be that it wasn’t the owner who paid over the odds sham investments it was the country his family rules who footed the bill… and that makes everything ok?
@lapremierleague.comMan City to argue their sponsorship deals came from the Abu Dhabi government, not the owners. Bold legal strategy: "It wasn't us, it was the sovereign state we're basically synonymous with." Independence, apparently, has a postcode. #PremierLeague #ManCity #EPL #Football #FFP

@lapremierleague.comMan City Charges: Players Explore Compensation Claims Turns out the only thing more expensive than City's legal team is the queue of players lawyering up over missing bonuses. A 115-count verdict with a receipt attached? Bold. #ManCity #PremierLeague #EPL #Football #FFP
