Initial 10, then reduced to 6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Lloydaldo11]

Waiting for the media campaign of “don’t punish the fans” to begin.

Corrupt to the core, regulation-busting knee jerk action by a cabal of gangsters in charge of milking football “customers”

Sooner the scum six waltz off to their super league the better

We can still stay up.

 

[Mozza1987]

Honestly done with footy. Absolute joke that. Totally corrupt.

 

[NorthernBlue]

Would absolute stink if nothing happens to City. If points deductions are the norm now for financial breaches then let’s see the consistency in it. There’ll be a multitude of clubs cooking the books.

 

[Yarrgh]

Disgraceful decision.

 

[daza_1973]

The games gone.

 

[tadpole]

Will the evidence be published?

Thing is aswell, I would like to see it reduced for your sake, but it's absolutely ludicrous issuing 10 points as a punishment if it's then reduced on appeal, Nobody in the relegation dogfight knows where they stand if the appeal is ongoing and can be ammended.

The PL are a [Poor language removed] joke from top to bottom.

 

[Nymzee]

We're not even 20th after this lol

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Minutes after FIFA sign up with Aramco to be their major sponsor. Not linked, but says it all. Sport is riddled with scumminess.

So glad I've removed pretty much all of my interest from pro football. Its an absolute sham as a sport.

I love that the club's statement says they will be following closely how the prem deal with other clubs with mire serious or more valuable allegations.

We've had our purple patch, other clubs will have theirs.

This is a HUGE boost to Burnley, Luton and Sheff Utd.

No denying that mate but do you think if the season started now we would accumulate 3 more points than the bottom 3?? I do and I don’t like our manager that’s how bad they are

 

[knowing your history]

This will be fought in the courts for months, don't worry about that.

10 points for one offence.....I look forward to Man. City receiving a 10 000 point deduction in a few years time.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Apparently we had the dream litigation team of Jeffers and Baxter representing us.

 

[Margarita]

Better this season than last season.

Interesting to see if other PL clubs get similar punishments - City and Chelsea for instance.
