Manchester City

[BG1973]

Why should they be 'welcomed at the top table' when they've not earned it. Massive massive set of cunts. Earn it you pricks. I don't know of any fans who ever begrudged Leicester their league win. None. If Sheff Utd make it in to the CL, no fans, none, will begrudge them. Ditto Wolves even though they've had some money to spend

Perfectly said

Cheers. It was a bit Aperol Spritz fueled

[fah-q]

wonder how the US firm Silverlake now feel? The crown jewel and biggest revenue generator of CFG is tainted.

The FA must be absolutely ****ting themselves.

. Yip

Everything Citeh won since they were taken over was in part because they cheated.

They're an absolute stain on the game.

FA won’t do anything. We should have last year’s title, but the most they’ll do is a £1500 fine.

I know I’ll get pelters for this, but does it not seem the English clubs are always where suddenly a stand is taken? Don’t be time wrong I’m absolutely for this, I realise other clubs have had punishments but not to this degree.

[Norbs]

The punishment that the FA dish out in the form of points is always the following season. Bolton this season shows that this is still their preferred punishment. If they don't apply that rule to City and make them start next season on at least -10pts then they've failed the league

I'm doing my best to work out what you've written

I reckon I've got it. Second paragraph is about UEFA's punishment not the FA. Yeah, PSG seem immune when in reality they're even more brazen than City. Italian and E European nations seem to be able to be as thuggish and racist as they like without fear of even raising a UEFA eyebrow

[Leyton388]

The issue is their accounting between 2011 and 2016 so they should have their 2014 title stripped of them at least. They have fraudulently obtained a premier league license by submitting the same blag documents that they did to UEFA.

Haha should’ve read it back, soz! You got it and I’m utterly in agreement about the racism issues and was actually going to touch on that.

No mate, that's little Englander bollocks.

AC Milan have been banned from European football for FFP breaches.

They're one of the most illustrious names in European football.

They have also cooperated with UEFAs investigation.

PSG aren't in the clear yet but they're also co-operating.

Citeh just ****ed UEFA and their investigation off

It's not in the Fa's remit to do anything against City unless you think they'll be booted out of the FA cup.

The Premier League are investigating but I wouldn't hold out much hope for a sanction. They've never done anything dramatic before.

The other thing about City is it isn't just that they failed to meet the FFP rules, they seemingly were actively trying to deceive the ruling bodies to make it look like they were meeting them, they also have failed to co-operate in the investigation.

All that said I wouldn't be surprised if the ruling is overturned on a technicality because UEFA didn't do something by the book.

[dizzycat]

So does does this mean Stevie G gets a legitimate league winners medal?

What are the PL rules on financial fair play? I remember there being talk of some being introduced similar to the UEFA ones but did that ever happen I can't remember and it doesn't really get discussed much.
