An independent Commission has found Manchester City guilty of serious Premier League financial-rule breaches covering 2009/10–2017/18. City can appeal the findings by Oct 2, while sanctions will be decided separately.

‎

‎Commission found they:

1. ‎Used 'sham' contracts to inflate revenue & cut costs by £900m+

2. ‎Filed misstated accounts & hid true finances from auditors

3. ‎Breached PL & UEFA spending limits "by a very substantial amount"

4. ‎Failed to cooperate and tried to frustrate the investigation

‎

‎No punishment yet, but they now face a separate sanction hearing where they could face fines, points deduction, or even more serious sporting sanctions.

‎

‎The big question:

‎

‎What punishment do you think would be appropriate if the verdict stands?

‎

‎Drop your thoughts City fans and rivals, let's hear you!
