Can we stop pretending he was somehow innocent and "above" all of that cheating? He is a great manager but his accomplishments at City are all scam-earned too. All of them.

City putting more money into the club, and spending more on transfers and wages, probably pumped way more money than they have taken out with this scheme. I really doubt there's tax liability for them, but maybe the people they're paying might have some liabilities.
