Manchester City threat issued to Andy Burnham by Independent Football Regulator

Football regulator David Kogan has warned he will resign should there be any Government interference in the Manchester City case. Prime Minister Andy Burnham sent shockwaves through the football world after admitting he would be "really concerned" if the City owners opted to sell the club following their guilty verdict for breaching Premier League spending rules. Burnham, formerly the Mayor of Greater Manchester, has disclosed that he held talks with City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak, with the Abu Dhabi ownership having ploughed millions into regenerating the surrounding area.
