Man City 'launch legal action against EPL' in shock move after 115 FFP charges
Manchester City have launched never-before-seen action against the Premier League which has resulted in major civil war among the rest of the clubs.
The Times have reported that the dispute, taking place between two of England’s biggest clubs, will settled after a two-week private arbitration hearing starting on Monday.
The outcome could change the entire way the Premier League looks and may even impact Man City’s upcoming hearing in November that is in relation to their 115 alleged breaches of the Premier League’s regulations and financial rules.
If found guilty then the champions could be hit with heavy fines, points deductions and even potentially relegation from the top flight.
Next week’s hearing will see City aim to bring an end to the league’s Associated Party Transaction (APT) rules, which they claim are unlawful.
Introduced in December 2021 after the Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United was completed, rules were brought in to prevents clubs from inflating commercial deals with companies linked to their owners so that the Premier League could remain competitive.

I’m a red from Manchester but why not everyone leave City alone,the owners have revamped the area with the ground training facilities and cleaned the area up. United and City at the moment are making Manchester what is a top destination for everyone, leave blue and red alone and only one answer tell the owners of your clubs to start investing in your club.

Manchester city has an open case which would result i Arsenal lifting two league cups but because the EPL hate Arsenal more than Israel hate Palestine they couldn't lure against Manchester city. Had it been Manchester united was second in league points they the case would have finish long ago.

115 charges is a lot.they may not be found wanting on all the charges but justice should be done at least.why was it so fast on Everton and Nottingham, and not with City?
