Nandy said the allegations, which date back to 2009, have been hanging over English football for several years. She argued that the case should not be allowed to drag on because fans need confidence that the rules are fair, consistently applied and respected.
The source report says an independent commission found Manchester City guilty on almost all of the charges and that the club intends to appeal. Nandy said the matter must be allowed to run its course and that due process must be followed, while expressing hope that any further stages are completed swiftly.
Asked whether the involvement of Abu Dhabi-based backers could complicate the issue because the United Arab Emirates is an ally of the United Kingdom, Nandy said she welcomed investment in English football from around the world. She described club owners as custodians responsible for leaving their clubs and the game in better condition.
Nandy added that investors do not set the rules. In her view, those rules belong to the Premier League and its clubs, and the league must resolve the case as quickly as possible while respecting the process.
