Let the authorities take care of City -or not-, I care more about the fact that we’re now two-bob.

For their millions, Abu Dhabi have also got thousands of unpaid cheerleaders. Few UK cities have such a proud tradition of opposing injustice as Manchester, as the 200th anniversary of the Peterloo massacre is a reminder of. Yet Man City fans have spent far more time haranguing UEFA – booing their anthem on Champions League nights for UEFA’s temerity to impose mild sanctions for the club flagrantly contravening Financial Fair Play rules – than attacking the human rights abuses perpetrated by the state in which the owners of their club reside. The forces of tribalism have been manipulated to buttress a regime antithetical to basic standards of human rights. This is what successful sportswashing looks like. “When sport washing works well, it positively impacts upon peoples’ cognition and behaviour,” says Simon Chadwick from the University of Salford. “We start thinking differently, our attitudes develop favourably, and then we begin behaving more positively towards the alleged sport washer.”

They know what they've done. They know the authorities know what they've done but their silence is just damage limitation.

I’ve seen advice where you probably shouldn’t comment to police questioning even if innocent. Misremember one thing and they have something to use in court that can convict you. You can only incriminate yourself. Keep quiet and let them prove it or not.

I know in the US you can ‘take the 5th’ but isn’t doing that here (refusing to answer on the grounds you might incriminate yourself) actually seen as an indicator of guilt?

Can be yes. It's almost always better to provide a defence if you have one.

My understanding is that often defence lawyers will advise it as it allows them to build their case before trial without having any potential conflicting answers given in initial interviews.
