Anybody know if this is another attempt to destabilise and damage our reputation?

Firstly, we are no longer a member of the EU so the European Commission (an EU body) has ZERO duristiction here in the UK (garnered from a quick Google, feel free to correct me).

Secondly this part of the article tells me it's a non story written that has been done so for click bait and fuel for sad fuck arse fans of other clubs.....

"Whether this results in consequences remains to be seen".....

Thirdly I suspect fear is not the emotion City are experiencing. More like eagerness to clear our name from unfounded smears like this one.

Which harris is this one? The one with the vendetta or the one with the grudge?

Given it's European complaint, you can add that cunt Tebas to the fray, especially now given the shit going down within in Spanish football, anything to deflect from their own dirty laundry?

Just another attempt by the usual suspects to destabilise their opponents.
It says that despite brexit, UK football clubs still come under EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation.
I imagine that's bollox, it's much more likely that they are saying that if we are in breach of EU rules, it will affect us in European competition.

Still, it's the Mail, so bollox is expected.
