Man city escape ban! Or did they? [Update 6/2/23]

[antijoke]

Lol nothing will stick

 

[Mark1989]

I mean no one will be surprised anymore and past shown they get away with it so dunno why it would stick this time

 

[omnomnom]

We all knew it was happening. Theres a lot of charges aswell

 

[robfosters]

I mean at some stage they have to get punished, they only got away with it last time cause of uefa not acting quick enough.

Stefan Borson, a football financial expert who has written for various media publications, is stating that this is super serious and if it sticks (which it very likely will) it would almost certainly lead to relegation

 

[antijoke]

There is absolutely 0 chance Man City get relegated

Wouldnt be relegated, maybe titles stripped like juve had and points deduction for current season at most I bet

The correct punishment should be retrospective points deductions for the 13/14 season and the forced sale of KDB to his boyhood club.

Why not? They have over 100 charges against them. The only reason the FA would be wary of relegating them is that it would give the super league a boost as City would see it as a possible route straight back to the top.

They would be instantly back up anyway so isn't much of a punishment and it's unfair on the smaller clubs in championship.

Stripping em of titles, points deduction would do more damage to there reputation I think.

Least a transfer ban too for 2 seasons minimum

 

[doodah]

So what will happen? Another appeal and all brushed under the carpet?

 

[Ayahuasca]

Would be nice if there were tangible punishments for once...

 

[john_smith]

Nothing will happen. They will get a fine, say sorry and promise not to do it again.*


*get caught again

 

[omnomnom]

Dump them right to the bottom of the pile. Too many charges for a fine which is largely pointless.

I don't see it being quick, they will lawyer up and go to cas again, will drag on I bet

 

[The_One]

Time to deduct man city points or relegate them

If they was relegated to the championship, how many of their squad would want to stick around? Can you see Haaland, KDB, Mahrez, Silva etc dropping down? I can’t.

Depends what their contract says. I wonder if any of them have clauses like this based on the extreme unlikelihood of this happening.

I reckon they will get a slap on the wrist or nothing personally. City could drag this through the courts for years and money doesn’t mean anything to them.

 

[The_One]

With the football white paper coming out going for regulation of football the fa and the authorities will have to do something because they know if not the white paper and regulation will sort it out

 

[Shamikebab]

10k fine incoming

 

[fez]

If they actually had a spine then they would be taking titles away and relegating them. This could mean that Ole would have a PL title.
