I don't think united can really complain bot being able to compete with City in terms of spending ability. You just have to look.at the top 10 signings and most are signings by United
There is a lot to question about how AbuDhabi have sportwashed the prem but their vision and mission to do it has been brilliantly executed

And we are going to be the next project for a Middle Eastern nation. Not worth bothering with if that happens. Wish they’d fack off and buy a club in their own country, they’ve nothing to do with Utd so can stay away.

The next project has already started Baz with Newcastle, our future hangs on the bottomless pit of Glazer greed, if 5 billion is enough for them to Gorge on it may be Qatar but I think they can smell more hanging around with wrinkly Jim so I wouldn’t bet on it

I never really understand all the crying about City. United dominated the 90s and into the 2000 because they could spend more than nearly every team.
Chelsea have won multiple champions league and premier league because they did the same.
City are now doing the same, the only difference is that City money comes from their owners, and Uniteds came from selling kits in Asia...
Look at United and Citys spending over the last 10 years, there is little difference, yet City have absolutely dominated because they're professionally run with a great coach.

So we are just going to ignore the 115 financial doping charges then? I see.
Utd and City's success are nothing alike.
City and PSG had won less than 5 league titles between them in their entire history before being purchased by middle eastern regimes. To compare that to Utd is just daft. United have grown organically largely down to a huge fanbase and timing of being the best team at the time of the PL boom.

Our world wide reach made the Prem what it is today but we wasted our position and let everybody else catch up.plus you can’t stich up the Prem like Real Madrid and Barca can do on TV rights in La Liga so the cash has been spread down the league so the likes of Crystal Palace can find extravagant wealth even if they don’t have a worldwide audience.
A Middle East state moving in just puts massive icing on the cake the swing in fortunes can be quickly immense just look at Newcastle relegation fodder to top four in a year it’s like pressing hyperdrive on the Starship Enterprise they suddenly have hundreds of millions of free cash and a dodgy proven blue print to follow how to wash it through.
All true.
Was at the game yesterday. Its just bull, all of it. All their success.
Only thing I can say is that I feel apathy towards the loss and their “achievements”, and yes, hollow is the best way of describing them.
Hopefully they will get charged with at least something, but knowing them they will just pay whoever they need to pay in order to keep this farce going.

They should have the account numbers and sort codes of the investigators collated now, expect it all to be swept under the carpet pretty soon
If City get away with the financial charges then Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal need to come out of the next collective TV agreement.
The playing field changes considerably then. They will cry fairness but what we are seeing now isn't fair is it? A regime not in it for profit is very difficult to knock off its perch.

Fix, cover up, bribed people, the FA are corrupt.
The charges gave us false hope which is why we lost the cup and Arsenal didn't win the league.
The Glazers are at fault, they are always at fault.

If you get away with it this time the league is done and dusted. It will be a shambles if the PL can't get that many to stick. Even half is enough to essentially end City as a club.
