⚽ Holloway demands Man City expulsion after guilty verdict

Former Blackpool manager Ian Holloway launched a passionate six-minute attack on Manchester City following their guilty verdict on 114 Premier League financial rule breaches covering the period 2009–2018.

Holloway, whose Blackpool side competed in the top flight during that window, called the situation "disgraceful" and demanded the club be removed from the league entirely. "Get the hell out," he said, directing his words at City.

City were found guilty of charges relating to financial fair play and reporting obligations across nearly a decade. The independent commission's ruling is one of the most significant in Premier League history, with sanctions yet to be confirmed.
