Judgement Day For Manchester City's Golden Era As Long-Awaited Hearing Begins
Manchester City have been an unstoppable force in English football of late, but now face the challenge of clearing the club's name against accusations their dominance is built on foundations of financial impropriety. Six years after a Premier League investigation began and 19 months on from 115 charges being levelled against the English champions, a hearing that will decide City's fate begins on Monday. An independent panel is expected to hear evidence for at least two months and with a verdict unlikely until well into 2025 for what has been dubbed British sport's "trial of the century."
