Simon Jordan offers his thoughts on Manchester City and the Premier League while lashing out at the Everton scandal.

Because Manchester City has not acknowledged any wrongdoing, Simon Jordan thinks that the claims against them are “very different” from those against Everton and Nottingham Forest.

He continued by saying that while there is a claim that the Premier League’s reputation is harmed by the spending breach charges, he doesn’t “buy that” because the league is mostly driven by “what broadcasters think of it.”
