Manchester City's failure to investigate fully Barry Bennell or involve police represented 'a wholly inadequate response', a QC-led report has found.
The Premier League leaders on Wednesday apologised unreservedly for their role in the child abuse scandal that has rocked football.
Bennell, a jailed, prolific paedophile, was never on the staff at Maine Road but was intrinsically linked with the club, taking expenses and using training facilities.
During his time there, he abused a number of victims and was not brought to justice, before heading to Crewe Alexandra where he would carry out further sickening offences.
