Re: Manchester City.

It's not exactly a short list, is it? Not only failing to comply with multiple regulations, but then deliberately failing to provide that information later, when asked. Not once or twice but repeatedly. For ten years, they failed to provide required salary and renumeration information, and then continued to fail to provide it, even when specifically requested.
Okay, they deserve to have the book thrown at them, but you have to ask why things have taken so long, to get to this point? The earliest failure to provide was in 09-10, and then in every season after that. What have the PL been doing, all that time?

It takes time for these things to come to light, and takes even longer for it to become a solid case. They need to get it right, because Man City will have incredibly well paid lawyers who will tear this to shreds if it isn't perfect.

Protecting one of their own

Nothing is going to happen to Man City

I disagree, if the PL don't act, FFP is dead and Newcastle and Chelsea will go absolutely crazy in the transfer market. Man City are going to get hammered.

It will either be points or a fine. Wonder which it'll be..

Even a 100 million quid fine won't mean anything

Relegation x 2 is what should happen

Chelsea, Newcastle, Man U, and Newcastle probably breaking them all too!

Re: Manchester City.

it'll be a fine or a point deduction, just enough to show they have acted but not enough to change anything about the season, so just small enough that they still finish in the top 4 ( for a CL place )

we have all said it, football is rotten and nothing is going to change

And they'll just beat everyone 15 nil on their way back up

If they don't get a big fine or deduction, Newcastle and Chelsea will go nuts in the market. The PL have to act.

15 point deduction, like Juve? https://www.msn.com/en-gb/sport/othe...ce/ar-AA17ab0Z

this will drag on a few years, with the investigation / appeal / final appeal and then the EPL will just do as I said above, its a joke

50 point deduction and a 50 point deduction next season.
Fines are nothing to them and that will just show the world that if you are rich enough, you can do what you want.
Relegation and a potential relegation the following year is actual punishment.
Won't happen though, football is a total joke and run by the rich clubs

Re: Manchester City.

I'm firmly in the feck all will happen camp.

There will be some loophole which will miraculously appear and be exploited by the club's "legal team stroke financial team" and a token fine imposed or possibly a minimal points deduction.

Our club would be hammered for such irregularities..

...and to think there are people who still believe that it is a level playing field :facepalm:
