Seek justice for Manchester City FFP violations and game cheating
The Issue
As football fans, we're compelled to watch a sport we love be tainted by corruption and unfair advantages. It's been over two years since Manchester City was charged with 115 breaches of Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, and yet, we're still in the dark about any definitive action or resolution. The lack of transparency and action from governing bodies is frustrating and damaging to the integrity of the sport.
The recent incident on Sunday, 13th September 2026, has added to our frustration. During the match, an offside goal allowed Enzo Fernandez, who was clearly in an offside position, to contribute to Manchester City’s win over Manchester United. This kind of blatant oversight—or perhaps bias—sits right alongside the unresolved FFP charges, adding insult to injury.
The integrity of football is being compromised, with officials seemingly turning a blind eye when it involves Manchester City. The favoritism shown, intentional or not, is unacceptable. Previous matches have highlighted instances where referees appeared to be in favour of Manchester City, affecting the results of games, and often leaving other teams feeling cheated.
We are not just pleading for an investigation; we demand a thorough administrative review and appropriate punishment if these FFP breaches and game manipulations are confirmed. Possible sanctions should include a points deduction for this season, a replay of the match between Manchester United and Manchester City, and a ban on key players such as Phil Foden and Erling Haaland from appearing in future matches until there’s clarity and accountability.
Let's push for a major £14 billion fine as a financial deterrent against future manipulations. Fair play isn't just a guideline; it's a fundamental principle of our sport that must not be compromised. This action isn't just about Manchester City, but safeguarding the essence of football that all fans cherish.
We invite all football fans, who believe in justice and fair play, to join us in this petition. We must hold the relevant authorities accountable and ensure the integrity of the game is preserved for us and future generations.
Sign this petition to stand up for fair play and the future of football.
