He’s inherited 99 problems but that’s less than 115. Calculated gamble.
But on the pitch is one?

maybe like this…
He might have known but not have been legally okaying it? Again, I’m not saying anything either way but I’m struggling to see how he would be involved in false accounting or be some kind of important figure in a deal between the Dubai royal family and buffed numbers from Dubai sources. Hes not the one okaying it all, its that Tixi fella with his head on the blocks if they’re going up the chain of command in terms of over all responsibility surely? If he’s set a mandate in terms of FFP wriggle room then I’m sure he could argue he was fooled by false accounting as well.If all the charges are proven, then he’d be looking at jail time I’d imagine.
I don’t think it’s possible to have the level of responsibility he did without having an intimate knowledge of the requirements to meet competition laws. United wouldn’t be hiring him as CEO if he didn’t have significant experience with FFP.
I might be wrong, but it also seems very unlikely that someone “jumping [a sinking] ship” would be offered the chief engineers job on a bigger boat if he helped build the ship that’s sinking?
Sure theres more out there (and it’ll come in next couple of days) but,..Anyone have a clue what he does? Loads of media nonsense about haaland but anything concrete on what his job has covered and what he achieved ?
I doubt it. He's basically never been mentioned on here before today.Anyone have a clue what he does? Loads of media nonsense about haaland but anything concrete on what his job has covered and what he achieved ?

Hopefully between Brailsford, Blanc, Berrada and (presume) Ashworth there's enough football nous, or even just basic intelligence, to manage to not spend another £280m on Casemiros, Mounts, Sanchos and Antonys.
I mean your club didn’t see fit to fire him all the while this has been looming. These things are rarely down to the actions of one single person and I think we all expect that City will never realistically be punished for this; It was all Berrada’s doing and we’re just so glad he’s gone and we can move onWould any business be okay with discovering that their CEO was involved in a massive financial cover up at their previous employer?
You can tell from the statement, it's from Ineos camp. Very precise to 'taking the club where it belongs'Ratcliffe writing statements, nice Busby reference.
