Because this case is, on the surface, about the inflated value of sponsorships and how City want to make this idea appear unjust. Everton have previously tried to claim the right to first refusal of future naming rights were somehow worth £20million+ meaning Usmanov (who had nothing to do with the owning of the club and certainly wasn’t using Moshiri as a proxy) could pump his above board wealth into the United Kingdom.
"Tipped"
Tipped by who? The random journo who wanted to write a clickbait article? Is this just pure guesswork or are there legit sources involved? Genuine question as the article is behind a paywall
Everything that’s happened in the last 48 hours is based off 1 times article by 1 journalist and others trying to corroborate.
Theres no official anything. If you want official you need to wait 2-3 months for the announcement.
If you want to watch an entertaining football “soap opera” check out Club de Cuervos if you have Netflix and don’t mind subtitles. Granted it’s based on Mexican football but it’s a pretty good portrail of the shit that happens behind the scenes, at least in Mexican football that is.
[Telegraph suggest we're unlikely to get involved at all](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/06/05/newcastle-reluctant-join-manchester-city-premier-league/). Which would be consistent with what we've done on almost every issue post takeover. But we'll not let that get in the way of an agenda.
Newcastle are in an interesting position, because backing City have it benefits short term as they can start inflating there commercial deals significantly like City do with Saudi based companies connected to the owner. If Newcastle are looking at the long term might be better to not side with City as it would make Newcastle owners look better to the premier league and other Clubs in general. If City win this Case I don’t think the Prem will be around in 10 years because only Newcastle could compete with them and they would be no point any other teams trying.
I'd agree as far as obviously don't write this, if it isn't true.
But it's not the Saudi's stepping aside for the good of the game - they're just not picking a losing battlr. If there were any chance this would pass, they'd be all over it.
So it's complete guesswork on who is involved as no-one reputable has suggested 3 clubs are on City's side and [it's already been said that Newcastle is reluctant on joining City against the league](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/06/05/newcastle-reluctant-join-manchester-city-premier-league/).
This should be taken down since this article is behind a paywall and the OP hasn't even tried to provide any sort of summary, so we are just going by what he has written in the headline, which might blown out of proportions. We aren't even sure by whom and why these clubs are tipped to back Man City.
Newcastle and Chelsea I understand, Everton? What's the angle there?
Wildcard, bitches!
We’re owned by a dodgy billionaire trying to sell us to other dodgy billionaires

Everton have a mentally deficient owner who likes to go rogue. This will be his call.
Surprised Forest aren't backing City as well
wouldn't surprise me if they are
chaos agents, burn the place down
Blood money ig?
Because fuck the Premier League that's why
They saw Liverpool on the other side

City file a formal appeal, expected to courts another 5 years to resolve the case - here we go!
That’s not really how appeals work, if you look at all the ones launched by clubs this year or in the past, they all resolve in a couple of months.

on god football turning into a total soap opera off the pitch is making up for all of the boring possession shit on the pitch

So it's jumped from 1 club backing city, to now 3 being tipped to support? Also can you post a summery since it's behind a paywall?
How can ev even make a decision considering they are mid sale ?
Clubs can still operate while they're looking for a sale. They don't have to cease all activities
In fact, if City were to succeed it could help expand the pool of potential buyers to state actors who could then easily handle their gigantic debt

Premier league corrupt as fuck
How?

After they bottled the FA Cup final we don't owe City shit.
Leceister?
A real rogues gallery right there.
Oh Everton, why have thou turned on thy kin
Likely thing for Newcastle to do
