but no matter what we have to admit that the ownership of Man City is kind of sketchy. I know they aren’t state owned, but IIRC the group that owns them is an entity of Qatar? And if that’s the case I’d be surprised if there isn’t money changing hands all the time that isn’t accounted for.
They are owned not by Qatar but effectively by UAE. Or, let’s say, the current deputy prime minister and vice president of UAE is the de facto owner.
You are right though in that the ownership structure is shady as shit, and the well documented FFP failings have serious weight behind them, even if the club manage to weasel out of serious punishment.
The guy replying to you, if it wasn’t obvious, was clearly a City fan (username checks out lol).

What evidence do have for these well documented FFP failings?
