The PL is not pissing about here and the stakes are very high. If City get away with taking the piss in the way they have (dummy sponsors, etc), it's basically an admission there are no financial rules in the Premier League and it's a free-for-all.
I've been saying this at work. They pissed off the PL by refusing to cooperate and thinking they can do what they want. The PL are absolutely looking to make an example of them. 115 charges, no way they're getting with everything. I think even Mendy would be found guilty with that many charges!

Just hope Chelsea are next.
