Man City's guilty verdict drags Andy Burnham's past into the fallout
Manchester City's guilty verdict in the Premier League's 115-charge financial case has pulled Mayor Andy Burnham into the fallout, because he spent years publicly backing the club and its Abu Dhabi ownership. The UAE has now threatened to pull billions of pounds of UK investment over the ruling, and a 2015 statement Etihad Airways submitted to the US government has resurfaced in City's appeal. City are contesting the verdict as the political and diplomatic stakes escalate.
