Has there ever been a club that's rattled another non-rival this bad? Levy rent free in Guardiola's head.

Well done Daniel

Agree with every word...The only issue with that is if this means the death of City then that's a problem. Because FFP was supposed to protect Clubs owners from putting clubs into a situation of failing due to financial mismanagement (yes there are a bunch of other arguments that have different connotations about why it exists). To then have the governing body effectively sanction a club that equals their demise opens a massive can of worms (it's why the Gov had to ensure Chavs were sold and not left to go out of business).
It's actually why I quite like the position that the PL have taken in with the charges. The focus isn't on FFP but on did they mislead, did they lie, did they provide wrong information. This focuses on cheating/rule-breaking and their ethics.
And we don't just rent all that space. We own it. Prime real estate.
Let's also not forget that Levy represents the Premier League at the European Club Association (ECA), the influential committee made up of Europe’s leading sides.Has there ever been a club that's rattled another non-rival this bad? Levy rent free in Guardiola's head.

Levy and Manchester City CEO Ferran Soriano had been vying to replace Ed Woodward on the ECA board. Woodward, Manchester United’s executive vice-chairman, stepped down last April when al the ESL stuff was presented (Woodward was the chief spokesperson of it)
When the ESL stuff withered and died Woodward was fucked so a new Chairman was sought to take his place. Levy won support from Premier League clubs including United, Liverpool and Woolwich. As a result, he stood unopposed.
Soriano went home with his tail between his legs.
I guessing but PL Clubs feared having a City man (A gulf state man) Chairing this group as they seem to have between PSG and themselves wormed their way into the fabric of UEFA and FIFA with representations in many communities and internal boards overseeing the game.
He was the only one Poch, saint of a man, ever had any issues with.

Do Citeh fans wonder why their club went to court to stop the PL receiving documents. Was it all a laugh?
