Episode Details

On a special episode of Men in Blazers, Rog sits down with journalists Rory Smith and Tariq Panja to discuss the Manchester City saga and the 114 Premier League charges the club was found guilty of by an independent commission. They unpack the scale of Manchester City’s disguised funding scheme, the club’s efforts to frustrate the investigation, the range of possible punishments they could face, and the political ramifications surrounding the verdict. Plus, they discuss how the findings could reshape Pep Guardiola’s legacy and whether Steven Gerrard should have a Premier League title.
