Manchester City have published their annual report, which includes an update on the potential outcome following a hearing into 115 charges brought by the Premier League. The club was charged with breaching financial regulations over a nine-year period between 2009 and 2018.<\/p>\n
An independent hearing took place a year ago, but the club, like the rest of English football, is still awaiting a verdict. The commission has not yet issued a formal decision regarding the alleged violations, which City has categorically denied.<\/p>\n
Former financial adviser Stefan Bolson claimed last month that a decision was “imminent” and could be announced before Christmas. “I think Simon (Jordan) thinks it will come out next year. I think it could still come out before Christmas,” he told talkSPORT.<\/p>\n

“A decision has been imminent for quite some time, but there’s not much they can do. It doesn’t take long.” However, City said in its annual report that an independent committee was still “considering the matter”, the Manchester Evening News reported.<\/p>\n
City’s annual report states: “Following the accusations, the club has issued a public statement saying it welcomes a review of the matter by an independent committee to comprehensively consider the irrefutable evidence supporting the club’s position.<\/p>\n
“As of the date of issue of these financial statements, the independent committee is still considering this matter. The directors confirmed that, based on their assessment of the Group’s prospects and viability, they have a reasonable expectation that the Group will continue to operate and be able to meet its obligations falling due within 12 months of the approval of these financial statements.”<\/p>\n
“Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.” Bolson is also of the view that neither the club nor the Premier League should be held responsible for the protracted litigation.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, no one knows, because even the parties themselves should have been informed by now,\u201d he further commented. “All the lawyers are surprised that no decision has been made at this stage, but it’s on both sides. I’ll tell you who’s supporting it, it’s the committee that’s making the decisions. They’re the ones holding the pen.<\/p>\n

“These are the people that everyone is waiting on to make a decision. Well, no one knows. We know a long list — we can put it together from all the members of the Judiciary Committee — but we don’t know who’s on that list.<\/p>\n
“I can guess that there are probably two lawyers and one accountant, but I don’t know who the committee members were and what they were instructed to submit by when.<\/p>\n
\u201cGiven that so much time has passed and everyone is so taken aback and indecisive, we now suspect that there was actually very little guidance given to them and that they were not effectively compensated for their time from the moment the case ended.\u201d<\/p>\n
