    I do admire EPL's courage in doing this (even if it's the right thing), because City will bring a top legal team, recruited straight from Satan's inner cabal.

    Over 100 breaches over 9 years.

    They already got a technicality to throw out the two-year European ban, but that technicality does not apply here.

    If the EPL is serious, that's three titles they're going to have to vacate, and I'm not sure they can technically continue the club at all.

    Juventus probably at least stays up in A, but the fact of the matter is that may be only because the Italians don't have the balls to demote them.

    The club aren’t owned by the Premier League so the EPL can’t dissolve them as such. They can relegate them or impose a transfer embargo but can’t do anything directly to stop the entity Manchester City FC from trading or potentially competing in
    another league.

    European Super League, anyone?

    Sometimes we should be grateful for small mercies. They could have done nothing at all, and most of us would still be tuning in to watch City every week.

    I doubt very much if the Premier League would have the balls to
    relegate one of their biggest clubs to the Championship.

    I expect some tough talk from the FA, a fine for Man City and something
    'harsh' like a points deduction that is actually suspended for a few
    years to make it seem like they are being tough. When the reality is
    the FA themselves have participated - and actively encouraged - the
    financial raping of football fans in England and sold the English game
    to the highest bidder. Man City are really only in trouble for getting
    caught out because of some leaked e-mails... how inconvenient.

    Watch this space...

    Not much point if they suspend it: 9 points or 90, it'll amount to the
    same thing! As I said, watch this space...

    Removing Premier League titles is a harmless option years after the
    event. But what club wants a title handed to them in a office ten years
    after that season is over? It's a waste of time. It might make good
    headlines on Sky Sports News though!
