Man City's major sponsor Etihad considers legal action against Premier League after claims the airline was at the centre of 'sham' sponsorship deals

Etihad Airways spokesperson: “Etihad categorically rejects any finding, conclusion or implication that suggests the airline has ever been involved in improper commercial arrangements. The Premier League’s public communication of the Commission’s findings, following a period of selective leaks and reporting, has further created damaging implications for Etihad despite the airline not being named in the redacted published findings.

“At no time did the Premier League reach out to or engage with Etihad in the process associated with the Commission’s opinion. Etihad was therefore never given opportunity by the Premier League to be represented, provide relevant information, or ensure the accuracy and fairness of information relied upon in reaching conclusions that may now be interpreted as reflecting adversely on the airline.

“Etihad is deeply concerned by the way this matter has been communicated publicly. The lack of clarity and transparency, together with the selective disclosure of information, has created damaging implications for Etihad despite the airline not being named in the published decision. The Premier League must take responsibility for the consequences of the way in which these findings have been presented.

“We stand with the Club, its supporters and our wider Etihad community as #ManCity� challenges the Commission’s conclusions through the processes available to it. Etihad will seek the relevant legal counsel on the options and recourse available to protect its interests…”

The one major accusation is etihad and they didnt even get consulted in the "neutral process" hahahahahahahahahah

BREAKING: Etihad Airways is considering legal action against the Premier League after it was implicated in its ruling that #ManCity breached its financial rules. The Abu Dhabi-based airline says it ‘categorically rejects’ the findings of the competition’s commission and warns it is now seeking legal advice on next steps.

Great to see and I don't really think the PL understand the barrel of worms that they have opened up here. To not only trump up the charges but have such scathing, emotional language throughout it is libelous towards a good number of businesses and governmental organizations.

It seems we are now in a media influence campaign vs the facts situation. And the media will start to turn once everything becomes more apparent.

[Scatman]

The Premier League have reached the conclusion they have about the Etihad sponsorship seemingly without asking Etihad about it. I'd have expected the first party to be a key witness.

The premier league is in the SHIT and I hope they get obliterated.

Seems the premier league are not as bright as every Muppet on social media thinks they are.

Hey Harry, this report is not taking any comments from the knee jerk Scouse, Arse and Rag wasters. I wonder why ? Might any comments made be considered Damage of reputation and for possible court actions against said commentators (litigation)?

[Kippax Sean]

Hi folks please tell me the latest Etihad statement is as significant as I think it is. I apologies but I don't follow social media too much out of choice, not laziness. My son has just shown me the statement with tears in his eyes. Is this really as big as I think it is. Cheers Seán.

Please God this is turning around in our favour.

Beeb now running story saying other clubs demanding punishment this season, I only read the first couple of lines of the sensational Frency whipping headline yet only has "sources" not one name or club.....

At least the rat Roan has put his name to it. Think that should spell the end for our friends on ordsall quays in being welcomed to the Etihad.
Loving the sweet irony of Etihad announcement. The PL wrongly accuse us of hiking the price of deals for sponsorship effectively saying it was all the Kingdom's wealth. Now look who is coming after you. Be funny if there is another statement from another sponsor tomorrow and then they keep coming.

Well, it is indeed very significant. Make no mistake,
if the PL do not reply to them they will go after the PL.

The published statements are saying Sponsorships were a "Sham".

Can you imagine American owners having to turn up in the High courts of London to defend this crap ?



Can i just inform you all, i am not sure how many of you are IT techies or not.

If you write an email and after it is received by the recipient.

You then delete it from your send box.

It does not mean the email is lost from your PC or handy.

Not at all.
IF you use email products like outlook or Thunderbird. Once you delete the email. you have to go and physically compress the trash box to clean up the contents of all deleted emails.

So what ?

Your email could still be on the email server from your ISP provider ( or google mail etc ).

Now Google and other email providers also take backups of their disks to protect your unseen emails , in need of recovery for you... Nice eh ? yeah but if that backup is on a tape. and backups can be made available to authorities. If retained for many years.... could be a problem.

That tape can easily be passed to third parties.(it might even be on disks propagated in other countries, like the US).

These backups are saved perhaps for a defined retention period.

I have worked on and developed systems using databases where a legal requirement is to retain Stock market transactions for thirty years. I have had to recover systems data to find specific transactions to present to the finance organisation - here it is Finma. And yes, the data , the transactions sometimes were eye watering.

Of course, i can never ever discuss such details.

IF i did , i would easily be hanging upside down by my ankles, like that fella in the Holy grail.

A certain fella in Bayern got done because information that should have been , (and quite rightly) deleted from the systems , wasn't.

The finance people got wind of it and nailed him.

Late night Pan Am flights from Brussels to Washington came into question as end of the week backup tapes of SWIFT data were found.

Remember in January 2025 City Chairman was sitting in with the O'Flatulent one in the Casa Blanca in Washington......



Make no mistake City's owner and the Chairman are squeaky clean.

They do not need to do anything that is not correctly performed and executed and as we have now seen with the "controlled" media in the UK watching them every minute of the day, they know what they are doing.

It makes no sense for them, especially when you see how much development they have brought to Manchester to be anything other than squeaky clean.

The attacks are pure envy.

The point is everything that is written in emails , in Blogs, in social media is definitely backed up.

If someone want to find you , they will. The owners know this.

It is so easy and quick to make copies of data and storage media can be stored in your wallet alongside those little blue diamond things you swallow.

I'll give you all an example, I gave my brother recently a Sony Walkman with a chip in it that stores up to 1Terabyte of data .

So what ? well it has over 1000 CDs on it. and can take another 1500 cds . It took 20 minutes on my very powerful Laptop to make the chip copy.

For me


I can not take the PL Administrators seriously, they do not know what they have got themselves involved in here.
Unless it is to try and keep their jobs as long as possible.

Over 30 years ago, The PL cunts signed a deal with B Sky B on the backlog a napkin.

Notice that Roan didn't name any specific Club. This is poor reporting. It could just be speculative from him. He should name names with the proof that
they have written or said something. Otherwise , like Talkcrap is is just BS

There will be elements of truth to it, no doubt why wouldn't they want us punished asap. He doesn't have to name clubs, we all know their names. With the Etihad statement dropping, I'd be surprised if we don't get something back from Masters and his co'horts as if not, they will be getting served. Going to be interesting to see if some of our other high profile sponsors follow suit. This is clearly a warning shot.

I am hearing Deloitte are taking Counsel.

The PL board really are finished.

Just imagine the amount of Business companies like Deloitte, SAP and so on make world wide with Companies and businesses that are owned by the City owner.

Do you think they would want their reputations damaged by an imbecile at the PL?

Further , do you think they would be happy losing business if they didn't fall in line and look into litigation ?

Love this. Please form an orderly queue. Sign here.

What my optimistic side thinks will happen:

The delay in reaching a decision, almost two years, makes me think this was partly about how the Premier League wanted to play this. If they came out and said we were completely innocent after spending years accusing us, they would look like clowns. I don’t think we will be found fully innocent, but I do believe some of the charges may not stick, particularly those relating to sponsorships and the way some of the information was obtained.

I also believe we know that Pinto, or whatever his name is, was paid to do what he did, and that could become important in the way some of the evidence is treated.

Moving forward, I think either the second panel or, eventually, the High Court of England and Wales could turn the current 1/5 outcome into something closer to 3/5 or 4/5. We might get a fine and perhaps a points deduction, say, around 10 points, but one carefully calculated not to affect our chances of finishing in the top four. Because if it did, we could make a very strong argument about the loss of Champions League revenue and the wider financial consequences.

At that point, I think we settle.

As much as I would love to see us go after the Premier League and really fight it all the way, I honestly don't think we will. I think we will probably take the easier way out: accept the punishment, avoid years of further litigation, and move on.
