I do get the overall problem with it. However, on some level, this feels like an extension of SCR rules and the like.

It's like they just want a way to keep Man United, Liverpool, Arsenal winning it on repeat here and either Milan club in Italy, RM and Barca forever more etc etc. The big established clubs have the influence to write these rules and keep getting to burn money and stay at the top.

I mean really the fact is you probably can't get to have sustained success at the top without huge revenue however that comes about. If they put actual constraints on some of those clubs then it wouldn't require a nation state to change the status quo.

The Burnley ruling against us has set a massive precedent for this

Wonder how long before we hear what the punishment is,

Surely they've known what the outcome was months ago , fucking Masters , get on with it . I mean it's took them years so if it's anyway in the points deduction realms that leaves relegated, then the appeal can't take forever.

My cat died just before kick off.

Randomly started coughing up blood. Dead.

Up the toffees.

Still had those moments winning everything.

Just because they get voided, it wouldn't change anything for me.
You will probably know more City fans than I do, but a lot of the City fan reaction I'm seeing online (mainly youtube) are pretty disgusted with their owners.

A lot of them appear to believe that they were innocent because their owners have insisted they were and that they had ''irrefutable evidence'' which proved they were innocent. You could say that's incredibly naive, but that's how a lot of them seem to feel.

A lot of them seem to be saying they want all the owners/board out of the club, and whatever punishment the club gets they deserve and more.

A select group of other clubs directors had to sign an NDA before being told of the panels findings earlier on in the week…

Not sure if that’s a good look or not?

I think this is a really valid point when you think their current superiority was built on persistent rule breaking. Clubs now live with an SCR imposition which effectively ring fences all City's annual revenue advantage to remain out of touch of any would be challengers.

The Times have said they've been found guilty 114 of the original charges, but there could be over 130 total.

It's good it's finally out there, I just have no trust in anyone involved that the punishment will be fair and proportional. Should have the lot thrown at them - thrown into non league, ordered to pay compensation and be stripped of all titles during the period and since due to the legacy advantage all this has gained them.

It's absolutely runied the integrity of our game.

Nothing will happen

They'll get away with a shitty slap on the wrist

Mansour will take the PL to the cleaners if it involves points deductions/stripping titles, Masters the cunt will shit his pants if that happens.
