FFP has a primary function, to ensure that the club does not go bust. Everton and forrest were very close to going out of business so they received sanctions. Man City is a very well run club that is in no danger of going bust so FFP in terms of sanctions, is just not applicable. That's why everything has gone silent

Apparently the favoured strategy used by mega wealthy companies to fight court cases - is to delay and postpone and complicate the case in question

- ManC have the advantage of being able to use all those tactics times 115 resulting in an incredibly long legal battle … the key result being unbelievably high costs increasing on a daily basis .. but of course that suits ManC far more than the Premier League.

City are hoping that the Premier League will get to the point where they cut their losses and drop the case


Even if and when a final verdict is reached, that may not signal the end of the process. The commission will initially rule only on matters of liability - with a separate sanctions hearing to follow should any of the charges be upheld.

City would also retain the right to appeal any guilty verdict or punishment imposed.
