Premier League chief calls for patience as Man City legal case drags on

Washington Post2 days ago
LONDON — The Premier League's top official called for patience Wednesday while the seismic legal case involving Manchester City drags on into another season.
City was charged by the league in February 2023 with more than 100 financial breaches , including providing misleading information about its sources of income. The case was heard by an independent commission between September and December last year but no verdict has been reached.

Another 60 people to be prosecuted for ‘showing support for Palestine Action'

A further 60 people will be prosecuted for 'showing support for the proscribed terrorist group Palestine Action', the Metropolitan Police have said. The force said this follows the arrest of more than 700 people since the group was banned on July 7, including 522 in central London last Saturday. More prosecutions are expected in the coming weeks, and arrangements have been put in place 'that will enable us to investigate and prosecute significant numbers each week if necessary', the Met said. Palestine Action was proscribed in July after the group claimed responsibility for damage to jets at RAF Brize Norton and was also linked to allegations of a serious assault on staff and police officers at a business premises in south Gloucestershire, the force said. Last weekend in central London 15,000 people demonstrated peacefully in support of the Palestinian cause with only one arrest, police said, adding that 522 were arrested 'for an illegal show of support for Palestine Action on the same day'. Stephen Parkinson, director of public prosecutions, said: 'The decisions that we have announced today are the first significant numbers to come out of the recent protests, and many more can be expected in the next few weeks. We are ready to make swift decisions in all cases where arrests have been made. 'The public has a democratic right to protest peacefully in this country, and I understand the depth of feeling around the horrific scenes in Gaza. 'However, Palestine Action is now a proscribed terrorist organisation and those who have chosen to break the law will be subject to criminal proceedings under the Terrorism Act. 'When protest conduct crosses the line from lawful activity into criminality, we have a duty to enforce the law. 'People should be clear about the real-life consequences for anyone choosing to support Palestine Action. A terrorism conviction can severely impact your life and career – it can restrict your ability to travel overseas and work in certain professions. 'I urge people to think very carefully about their actions at protests. Anyone who chooses to disobey the law will have to face the consequences.'

Where to watch Premier League: Live stream 2025-2026 EPL matches from anywhere

The Premier League returns for the 2025 to 2026 season, and matches are available to stream around the globe. We've compiled everything you need to know about where to watch the Premier League, including live streaming options for those without cable. Liverpool were victorious in the Premier League last season, nabbing their second-ever EPL title following their 2019-2020 season win. The win broke up Manchester City's stronghold on the league, which saw them dominate from 2017-2024, only losing in the 2019-2020 season to — you guessed it — Liverpool. The 2025-2026 season will help prove whether Man City is truly down and out or if Liverpool (or another team altogether) can rise to the top again. Streaming options are available worldwide, including in the UK and the US. Keep reading to learn about some of the best watch options and recommendations for a few of our favorite streaming services. Where to watch Premier League in the US US coverage of the Premier League will air through various NBCUniversal properties, including NBC, the USA Network, and Peacock. The majority of the action will be available to live stream on Peacock, where plans start at $11 a month or $110 a year, although some games (like the August 15 kickoff) will be missing. Cord-cutters who still want to tune into matches that aren't on Peacock or those seeking a more comprehensive live TV streaming experience can check out month-to-month services like DirecTV, Sling TV, or Fubo. DirecTV's MySports package carries USA, NBC, and around 20 other popular live sports channels, including TNT and ESPN. The pack also comes with access to ESPN Plus. Subscriptions cost $70 a month, but new customers can get a five-day free trial. Local channels like NBC occasionally have some regional variability, so it's a good idea to check the exact channel lineup available to you before subscribing. Sling TV carries USA, NBC, and 40+ other channels in its Blue plan. Subscriptions cost $46 a month (or $51, depending on your location in the US). You can also try getting one of Sling's new season passes for $199, which spans five months and saves you about $31 when you prepay. Local channels vary by region, so you should check your ZIP code on the Sling website to ensure you can access networks like NBC. Fubo also carries NBC and USA in both its Pro and Elite plans. The Pro plan costs $85 a month and includes access to more than 200 channels. New users can get $30 off their first month of service after a five-day free trial. Where to watch Premier League in the UK The bulk of the Premier League matches will be available through Sky Sports in the UK. Prices vary depending on which plan and contract length you sign up for, and you can learn more in our guide to the best Sky TV deals and plans. Sky Sports is also available to stream through Now. Additional matches will air on TNT Sports, which fans can live stream on Discovery Plus for £31 a month. Where to watch Premier League in Canada Fubo is the must-have streaming home of the Premier League in Canada. The live TV streaming service has two tiers: Sports Basic and Sports. Sports Basic will get you 200+ Premier League matches, while Sports proper has all matches. Both tiers also include access to loads of other sports. Basic costs $20 a month, but you can ultimately get a cheaper subscription if you pay quarterly or annually. The same goes for the regular Sports plan, which costs $31.50 a month on its own but is cheaper monthly if you sign up for a longer-term plan. Right now, customers can get their first month of Sports for just $27. How to watch Premier League from anywhere Football fans traveling abroad can keep up with their usual streaming services from anywhere with the help of a VPN, or virtual private network. VPNs allow people to change their device's virtual location. This way, their go-to websites and apps work from anywhere in the world, so they don't need to worry about missing out on their favorite programming while traveling. Plus, they're instant ways to boost online security. Our No. 1 recommendation is NordVPN, a top-notch VPN with a 30-day money-back guarantee. It's chock-full of cybersecurity perks and has a few savings opportunities with long-term contracts, but customers can also just subscribe month-to-month. To learn more, you can read our official NordVPN review. How to use a VPN Sign up for a VPN if you don't already have one. Install it on the device you're planning to watch on. Turn it on and set it to the location of your streaming service. Navigate to your streaming service and create an account. Enjoy the matches. Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
