Administrator Stan Posted February 6, 2023 Administrator Posted February 6, 2023 Naughty. No doubt they'll make it miraculou£ly go away...
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted February 6, 2023 Subscriber Posted February 6, 2023 I'd be very surprised if they don't get out of it all somehow. Points deduction is the most likely outcome but expulsion from the league is also possible too.
Fairy In Boots Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Been saying this is going on for years, City act like the Cali cartel counter suing and tying the PL & UEFA up to slow them, but the authorities will get there eventually. The problem is City by that point will have had a decade of success so will be a bigger club because of it. the reality is they’re a small club that’s financially doping to become a big club. Their fans will make light of it but the reality is they’re no different from the Russian Olympics team, just wholesale cheating. points deduction or transfer ban will be the punishment eventually and City will take it to minimise damage to them. that’s why we all dislike them, not jealous of success, just frustrated at playing in a rigged game.
Dr. Gonzo Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Yes, relegate them and ban Pep from entering England for 50 years!
6666 Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Still can't see anything happening. The Premier League rarely does anything. Serie A has crooked incidents crop up more often but they have a history of handing out big punishments. The Premier League doesn't and I can't see them starting.
6666 Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Charges for things they did from 2009/10 to 2017/18. Nothing sticking would be crazy.

Bigger game afoot here is the independent football regulator is coming from the government, the PL don’t want that so City have been thrown under the bus. we all know they’ve been cheating, both the PL and City are corrupt but one has knifed the other to save itself. City won’t get away without punishment now is my gut feeling, we are all like “city will pay to make this go away” not this time.
Inverted Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Considering they're having a fairly poor season and don't look likely to win much this year anyway, I'd imagine they'd be delighted to be slapped with a token points deduction. It's a small price to pay for the mountain of domestic trophies they've won.
Cicero Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Pep might walk given his statement last summer.

Subscriber Coma+ Posted February 6, 2023 Subscriber Posted February 6, 2023 I think I read somewhere that they won't be able to appeal this decision to the CAS. PL verdict will be final.

Rick Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Take the titles away and give them to us… In all seriousness, the punishment will be nothing in the grand scheme of things. Now if they PL relegated them to league League One, then that would be something but it’ll be 15 points deduction and a fine at the very very most.
Cicero Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 The UEFA investigation and its evidence back in 2019 was damning enough. Was only a matter of time until the PL got involved.
DeadLinesman Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 I wonder if they’ll lose all their PC’s like last time……
Carnivore Chris Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Chelsea better watch it as well to be honest.
LFCMadLad Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Chelsea surely the next to be investigated? Both cheating twats!!
Cicero Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 The moment the club start posting higher revenue than United, Real Madrid and Barcelona, then I'll be the first to call Club was sanctioned less than a year ago with the government controlling and checking every penny as well as being involved in the final take over. Not once has the club overstated revenue or understated loses.

Chelsea did a lot of their crazy spending pre-FFP if I remember correctly so I don't think they would've needed to lie about finances at the time. After FFP came in, their spending was what you'd expect from a normal top tier club. Only now has it gone crazy again but they're spreading their spending across a lot of seasons. Man City basically just ignored FFP and lied.
Storts Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Yeah Chelsea broke football but annoyingly not sure it was illegal at the time. They also seemed to build the income/sponsorship side of things more organically
Fusion Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 It's fine, they will find a loophole and set up fake companies owned by their owners to show up their 'profits'.
LFCMadLad Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 Load of bollocks. Chelsea took an interest free loan of £1.5 billion from that Russian cunt without any comeback. Now they are spending at will because they are giving out long contracts. Horrible cheating bastards.

Redcanuck Posted February 6, 2023 Posted February 6, 2023 I have said before, but no Nation should be able to own a football club. I would like to see them kicked out, they have been guilty of financial doping since the Arabs bought them. However, that won't happen, Newcastle are owned by Saudi Arabia and Liverpool and Man Utd could be bought by Arab countries and be able to commit the same violations if they wanted. Probably a 5 or 6 point deduction and a one or two transfer window ban at most.
