They are going down
In the last decade, the rise of Manchester City in the English football pyramid has been questionable. The rise of their market capitalisation has been significant – the amount of capital wasted on players shows how non-footballing people have misguided football clubs.
Billionaire influence and incompetent CEOs have ruined the structure of Premier League clubs. Manchester City is one of the clubs in the Premier League that have been mismanaged in terms of finances and human resources. Manchester City has maintained their physical resources through the maintenance of facilities, but football analysts and spectators have questioned their finances.
The inception of the Premier League in 1992 allowed Division One football teams to grow their global domain and enabled these teams to gain access to capital from multiple investors. The authorisation of sponsorships allowed football teams to increase their assets and enhance their infrastructure.
Selling sponsorships and football rights in different countries allowed these teams to extend their influence. This ideology of the Premier League started a profound corruptive movement where individual football teams saw that it was an opportunity to emulate the ideologies of the Premier League’s profound corruption.
Manchester City Football Club has always been in the shadow of its rivals, Manchester United. Manchester City has reached the top of global football at a rapid rate, which has concerned other clubs. The speed at which they have amassed football’s biggest transfer fees and brought in some of the world’s best players has raised alarms.
The acquisition of the club by the Saudi Consortium group was not right in the first place, as the club was bought when Financial Fair Play (FFP) was not implemented.
The club has been allowed to roam freely without any sanctions. The 115 charges that have been imposed on this club are justified, and it shows that they have manipulated the markets and the football systems to fill up their trophy cabinets.
These charges must come with consequences, and they should not get away with this. Manchester City getting relegated from the Premier League will demonstrate the seriousness of the football pyramid and show that football is a business with rules and regulations.
The biggest corruption of them all is the charges against Manchester City Football Club, which they were found guilty of today on 115 charges.
Manchester City should not have been allowed to use barristers and football commentators to defend their implausible position because the club has brought football into disrepute, and this deserves severe punishment. The club should be relegated to the third tier of English football.
The pressure of these charges is evident in their performance on the pitch, as players, CEOs, and coaches knew the outcome was inevitable, and relegation should be the result. Football does not need cheaters.
