if this is all true, then a hefty punishment is the only justifiable outcome .

Rules can not stop you from breaking the law. They can only help hold you accountable if you do.

It’s the Jersey Mike’s Trophy… if it was a league game then it might be different

Except of course the laws have been scrutinized and Man City have been found guilty? the laws were in place and man city broke them. FA are incompetent in many areas, but I’m not sure how they shoulder the blame for man city’s rule breaking?

depends who’s named as the claimant. They can try suing them but it’s Leicester City who missed out on a champions league place, not KP. its actually possible KP are doing this as a marketing ploy to try help sell the club.. ” if you buy Leicester, you might get a chunk of this money….”

we KNOW our club has fiddled their books for a few of the seasons with these mysterious sponsorship payments for companies set up with dodgy offices set up in some run down industrial estates.. but I think what is clear is that Man City’s rule breaking isn’t just on another level, it’s on another stratosphere. We were found guilty I believe on ONE charge. They have been found guilty on 114. so the winners are those clubs that have lost out on silverware, players, league positions all because of the sheer scale of the cheating. I’m not so sure the guilty verdict will get them those titles but they now have a ruling that they can use to sue Man City with . Probably every team that’s been in the prem in the last 18 years will try to sue them( we are allegedly suing them for £1bn!) but the actually successful claims could be just a handful . so yeah, there’s definitely some winners in this.

but why would you take away the ‘ Glory Hunters?’ right now in this forum we have members who started supporting us around the time of our league win and are still with us in the dark times. You have fans who are growing up who know nothing but Man City at the top- they will be with them until they die. and in general size, Arsenal have approximately 120 million followers throughout social media and Man City have 190 million followers throughout social media Wether we like it or not, Man City ARE a big 6 club and they certainly don’t need the premier league more than the prem needs them.

premier league are actually in quite a precarious position… I suppose if they punish Man City too hard ( in Man city’s eyes) their owners can just bank role the creation of the super league and bugger off for good. Which isn’t that bad, really… but who would go with them? The collapse of the tv deal would have a catastrophic consequence for the rest of English football..

it’s a tricky one… and I get what you’re saying.. But what you are asking for is for FIFA to have intimate knowledge and private access to every bank account owned and operated by Man City and all their players.. and all before any inclination of any crime has been committed. From a Legal standpoint, I don’t know any club or player who would allow that. and with regards to punishment, they may be expelled from the premier league but you can’t ’ expels them from football. One battle that Leicester City won was that a punishment dealt out in the premier league is not enforceable in the football league.. however, there is one caveat.. and that is if Man city get expelled from the prem, the football league are under no obligation to accept them into the championship. Or any division for that matter. And if they do, that’s going to have a knock on effect for everyone else- who is going to be denied a place in the champ at man city’s expense? Will the champ be able to operate with an extra team for a season? however the Cynic in me tells me that the league will force Man city to hand over a large ‘ compensation package’ to whoever wins the first division play off for them to step aside for a season. Which will only reinforce the sentiment that money can buy you anything in football.

The amount of clubs and situations that could bring about lawsuits to Manchester city could be huge. Theres going to be a lot of club owners licking their lips right about now…

We now have 3 kits with 3 different badges on. That’s the sort of thing I’m less keen on.

we appear to have 3 different kits with 3 different badges. It’s a very confusing identity to a fan.

well we know for Top and his family, Bhuddism underpins a lot of what they do.. The color green within bhuddism can signify growth and renewal/ transformation

? What’s with the badge

A group and song that was WAY ahead of its time. alternatively, an ongoing series of events we seem determined to keep repeating..
