EXCLUSIVE: Man Utd to name Man City’s Omar Berrada as new CEO. Led by INEOS with Glazer backing. Will take exec leadership of football + business, seat on board + report to owners. Highly regarded & many will see as major coup @TheAthleticFC

INEOS doing bits already lads, we’ve nicked the bloke who constructed the Haaland deal and was key to the success of City’s academy.

What I think is really terrible, if the charges are proven, is the memories that will have been stolen from the players, coaching staff and fans. Take Gerrard for example. Liverpool finished 2 points behind City in 13/14 and Gerrard missed his chance to win the PL. Has City cheating robbed one of the leagues greatest midfielders? If so, they really need a severe punishment, as he can never have that time again.

City should be awarded an extra title for this.

Will Sir Dave Brailsford be in charge of PED's and doping now or will that be down to Omar?

probably why SE85 is so vocal on this thread what with the new CEO being "Omar".

Both will provide plenty of expertise from their previous jobs.

Fraud
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It is fraud. You won’t get found guilty though so I wouldn’t worry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its potentially fraud by Etihad and Etisalat (them finding us guilty would insinuate that), haven’t seen anything that would suggest its fraud by City.

Even United's own mouthpiece is having doubts.

City is the best right now.
So as ugly it sounds and how much it hurts, this is a statement signing..
Hopefully it will bring some optimism, and Omar will make wonders.
