Paul Scholes Demands 2011/12 Premier League Medal Amid City Scandal
Paul Scholes, a Manchester United icon, has publicly stated his desire to receive his 2011/12 Premier League medal after Manchester City was found guilty of financial misconduct by the Premier League. The league announced that Manchester City violated regulations over a nine-year period from 2009/10 to 2017/18.
Despite Manchester City's appeal against the independent commission's ruling, Scholes insists that the medal should be awarded to Manchester United, which lost the title to City on goal differential that season. Scholes characterized himself as a "greedy bastard" in an Instagram post, expressing frustration at former teammates who wish to relinquish trophies but not their medals.
Wayne Rooney, Scholes' former teammate, has expressed reservations about accepting the medal, stating that Manchester United was not the rightful champion that season. The disciplinary actions against Manchester City are still pending, with their next match against Liverpool at Anfield expected to be challenging.
