The Coates family are worth billions, yet throughout their ownership of @stokecity we've still had to operate within the same rules as everyone else.
They've invested hugely in Stoke-on-Trent, creating jobs through Bet365 and contributing millions to local charities, education and the NHS.
But none of that gives them, or anyone else, a free pass on football's financial regulations.
If the allegations against Man City are proven, the ramifications are enormous. The damage done to the integrity of the game would be immeasurable.
Yet all we seem to hear is denial and deflection.
Personally, I hope the Premier League throw the book at them.
The UAE owners have invested billions into Manchester and have helped transform the local economy, creating thousands of jobs and opportunities for people.
The Etihad Campus alone has supported around 14,000 jobs, with the latest £300m+ development expected to create another 2,600 jobs.
So if the Premier League thinks it can push Manchester City into a situation where the owners pull back their investment, a lot of people are going to feel it.
Workers will lose jobs. Businesses will lose customers. The local economy will lose billions in investment.
This isn't just about football anymore.
Keep playing with 115 if you want.
Just remember that there are real people and real jobs behind that investment.

On the 12th July we lost my dad after a short illness at aged 64. He was a life long Stoke fan and season ticket holder and it would mean a lot to me and my family if we could get a round of applause for him on the 64th minute this Saturday.
Please help get the word around❤️🤍

Before England’s goal in minute 45+2 against Norway, the sensor in the Connected Ball showed no peak in the 'heartbeat of the ball' when in the air, and therefore no evidence that the ball touched the overhead wire and changed the movement of the ball.

Mourinho says he doesn't keep runner-up medals so he threw it to an Arsenal supporter. #CFC

One of my favourite away pubs is up for sale and at risk of extinction due to the owner retiring. I think @stokecity should buy and it and make it an official matchday venue 🥲
Stone’s throw from the ground. Live forever Barge-Inn Booze 🙏🏻

The FINAL WCW Nitro was 25 Years Ago TODAY!
Bischoff's deal fell through and McMahon officially ended the Monday Night War. He didn't give WCW the sendoff it deserved, but our boy Tri.moon did.
R.I.P. Tomi 💚
