Manchester City has appealed the findings of an independent commission, announced earlier this week. The commission found the club guilty of breaking the Premier League's financial rules.
Man City appeals guilty findings of breaking EPL's financial rules
From the report
How outlets headlined it
Each outlet's own headline. Struck through: the loaded words our version leaves out. Plainest first.
- ABC News Man City appeals guilty findings of breaking EPL's financial rules plain
- ABC News (Sport) Man City could face fines, EPL expulsion, over financial rules scandal plain
- The West Australian Man City appeal Premier League financial ruling plain
Headline check
Neither of the two things this headline claims turned up in the report.
- “Man” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
- “EPL's” is named in the headline. We could not find it in the report.
Figures, names and quoted words in the headline, looked for in the report itself — not in the summary above. Names are matched as they are spelled, so a report that says “New South Wales” where the headline says “NSW” is queried here when it should not be. How this is checked
This is a summary. The indicators are not. Every score on this page was measured over the full 529-word report, which is the only way the numbers mean anything.
How each outlet filed it
Also covered by The West Australian. We hold only their summary of it, not the report, so there is nothing of theirs to measure here.
