Summary
Enzo Maresca responded to Manchester City’s guilty verdict with an Instagram post quoting Socrates — “The only thing I know is that I know nothing” — and added: “Time to breathe. Time to analyse. Time to learn.”
Friday’s ruling found City guilty on virtually all of more than 100 Premier League financial-rule charges brought in February 2023; the club still denies wrongdoing and is expected to appeal.
Noel Gallagher said he was shocked and sad for fans and players, while former chairman David Bernstein warned that if the verdict stands, a fine alone would not be a sufficient punishment.
Lisa Nandy called the case unsettling for football fans and urged a swift resolution, as pressure grows for an accelerated appeal to limit further damage to English football’s credibility.
