Premier League Chief Talks City Charges Delays…
Premier League bigwig Richard Masters shed some light on the glacial pace of the Manchester City financial case. It’s moving slower than a sloth on holiday, but Masters insists his frustration is “irrelevant.” February saw the unleashing of over 100 charges related to City’s financial shenanigans, prompting a cautious “patience, young Padawans” from Masters as fans remain eager for a verdict. City fiercely denies any wrongdoings, as an independent commission tiptoes its way through the case, leaving onlookers feeling more restless than a cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
With the 2025-26 season as fresh as a daisy but the City shadows still looming large like a sumo wrestler in a tutu, Masters claims there’s zilch he can do to speed up the verdict process. When quizzed about the delay, Masters explained the complex workings of independent panels – so independent they’re practically off the grid. Legal processes, he notes, are akin to molasses running uphill; patience is key. Stay tuned to The Manchester Evening News for your City fix—because, like a juggler at a porcupine convention, you don’t want to miss a beat!
