Gary Neville has revealed he has some sympathy with Manchester City over their financial breaches.
The Premier League has accused City of 115 financial breaches after a four-year investigation.
However, speaking on The Overlap Live Fan Debate, Neville admitted he had sympathy with City over FFP rules.
He said: “On the financial side, I do have some sympathy for Manchester City.
“If you look at what Jack Walker [former Blackburn Rovers owner] did in 1992, 1993, 1994, that was financial doping, but it was deemed to be something completely different because he was a local businessman who pumped money into his club.
“I’m not a fan of the Financial Fair Play Regulations. It means you’ll always have the same clubs at the very top because their revenues are higher, and you’ll always have the lower clubs lower down because they can’t compete with the revenue.
“We do need sustainability and cost controls in football, and this is one of the biggest decisions in the next 12 to 18 months.”
