Never forget when 2022 manchester city sponsor 8xbet had a fake ceo where the profile picture displayed was a stock image of a random woman who is a london based model, the company didn’t accept bets, the betting company was mysteriously owned by a dubai betting org (who had one client that was 8xbet) - and the meta data behind the website administrator for 8xbet was located in the UAE 👍

Another weird one.. LEOVEGAS
3 August 2022: UK Gambling Commission fines LeoVegas £1.32 MILLION for anti-money-laundering and social-responsibility failures.
8 September 2022: Manchester City announce LeoVegas as their official betting partner in Europe and Canada.
Just 36 DAYS LATER.
Their logo then appeared on City's first-team TRAINING KIT sleeve.

8XBET is deffo the weirdest though.
- A founder who appeared to have almost no online existence
- A CEO apparently using someone else’s photograph
- A company history that didn't match available records
- A LinkedIn page listing just TWO employees neither of whom appeared legitimate
- Metadata showing the administrator of the site was based in UAE.

No, when the premier league starts to investigate Manchester City’s recent sponsors the league is in for a NASTY shock.
I recommend everyone research city sponsor “8Xbet” - it’s dark man, it goes so much deeper than 2018. They have not stopped.

openai: we are making our subscriptions 2x worse and keeping the price the same, also we are adding zero benefits
anthropic: we are keeping our prices the same and giving you more usage :)
I’ll explain the new Pro 200 plan differently, before I start live tweeting from DevDay on things that are going out!
Today we are going to ship a number of things that increase what you can do across the Plus and Pro plans. A lot of compute is online for this increase. As we increase the floor, we are changing the relative difference between plans to be
Plus = 1X
Pro 100 = 5X
Pro 200 = 10X
and we are reopening subscriptions for Pro 200 (we had paused it). If you have an existing plan you will keep the 20X multiplier for a bit and also receive a lot of additional credits because we know changes are hard even if it means that everyone will get more in the end.

Yeah nothing says “we are not corrupt” like asking your state owners to enact economic warfare against the entire british people because of a football related lawsuit
Raise the price of petrol and diesel, @MansourBinZayed.
Let’s see what decision they come to after that.

They're really in the bargaining stage now, they're claiming it's "brilliant" that every trophy they've won in their clubs history would be stripped
Imagine if the punishment is backdated points deductions stripping us of previous titles. That would be brilliant as basically no punishment for us as we’ve already lived those moments

PL shouldn’t destroy City as a brand asset.
They should be stripped of their titles posthumously, heavily fined for several years, with fines distributed to the most affected clubs in 4 UCL positions around them.

Remember this? There's more to this city story, I think the 114 charges will increase.
EXCL: Manchester City's partnership with betting firm 8xBet is found to have anomalies, with the Premier League champions still under investigation | @sportingintel trib.al/ZAvlBkS

chuckling at the fact that pep guardiola not only wasted 10 years of his life at city, but he also destroyed his marriage for it too

Tell you what there's gonna be social network esque movie made about Manchester City's era 2008 onwards, and it's gonna be fucking incredible

I don't think City fans realize that the points deduction is just the beginning. They're going to be exposed for even more now, remember those dodgy betting sponsors from a few years ago?
They're also going to get sued massively by Liverpool / United / Arsenal / Relegated Clubs
