The most important thing is that the Premier League and the UK government will be the ones losing money, fanbase, global attention and investment if they decide to severely punish Manchester City. They should just let this go through a mutual agreement and move forward, with both sides agreeing that this should never happen again.

🚨 The fallout from Manchester City’s guilty verdict is now threatening to turn into a international diplomatic incident. The UAE has warned the UK government that billions of pounds of future investment could be at risk, including funding linked to the planned Oxford-Cambridge technology hub — a project intended to rival Silicon Valley. 🇦🇪🇬🇧💰 City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak also met Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds at Downing Street just two weeks before the Premier League publicly announced its verdict, although reports say the meeting concerned UAE investment and City’s case was not discussed.

🚨🗣️ Gary Neville: "The Premier League is our greatest export around the world, and now it's being dragged through the mud because the very best team over the last 15 years, as we stand, are guilty of winning titles inappropriately. That's devastating." "If the guilty verdict stands it won't be real. It'll be a period tainted forever. The achievements themselves are tarnished." (@SkySports)
