Man City Banned From Europe

[dublinbluenose]

City have deeper pockets than UEFA, it'll be bogged down in courts for years.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

We aint finishing 5th

Not saying we wont

 

[number4.]

This.

Suspect this is right - but didnt chelsea serve their transfer ban during appeal ?

 

[maccavennie]

Regardless of appeals or deductions or whatever, the most important thing is fkr us to take care of our own business on the pitch. Keep winning games and we'll hopefully be there or thereabouts in the shout for Europa League or CL

So reading through comments the summary is this is bad news?!?!

What it might do is make City forget the top 4 race as it wont help them, which might bring the title game forward

 

[Lelouch]

I'll get excited about this when the appeal decision is done and dusted.

 

[OneTrueLegend]

Knowing our luck we will finish 5th, celebrate getting in the champions league and then in the summer City will get their ban overturned. Proper Everton That

they won champions league last year will win league this year. I don’t give a rats about them winning it at goodison. It’ll hurt but getting 5th is on my mind champions league or nay.

 

[Groucho]

Do you not recall Heysal? Which screwed us.

I think there may be just the teensy tiniest chance that I was referring to that sarcastically.

I honestly don't think that could happen l, just for one main reason.

Everton surely would be spending money on "CL" quality players so if the decision was overturned where does that leave us? That might then leave us in breach of FFP if we overspend on the basis of qualifying and in turn Everton would be able to go to town on UEFA as it would open up a whole can of worms

 

[ForeverBlue92]

I just want europe would take 8th now if it got us into it

 

[Rob17896]

Just breaking now, Man City banned for 2 years from European competition...
Extra space for us to take advantage of?
Potentially a fire sale we could benefit from?

no. Appeal will lower it and we need to watch it as well.

 

[14_dollars]

This can only be bad news for Everton.
Why?
Because it always is.

Wolves 0-0 Leicester, there’s a first piece of a very big jigsaw getting Everton into Europe.

Today is massive for the club. City in their comments seem accepting of their punishment and accept crime, I can’t see them appealing.

But this is where Everton crumble. We’re now trying for a top 5 finish, which is very doable. For once Everton, please don’t bottle it.

They will appeal.
