Manchester City's Sham Trial

[Walken]

Absolutely none of the charges related to player trading though, which was my point mert.

It relates down the line to give them the ability to move in the transfer markets, it's all related

 

[Lineker]

I'm coming at it more from the angle at this should not have been allowed to drag on so long while they continue spending like it's going out of fashion despite being many charges hanging over them for spending money gained via questionable sources at best. And then the inevitable outcome will occur..

Is the inevitable outcome that they are not punished, the rules are scrapped/changed now that everton have been done?

200mill in a window to scrape past orient. What a genius

None of the new players look that good either. Not been impressed at all by the new centre half

So the belief is now they will get the result of this in the next month according to Pep.




Interesting snippet in the BBC article is that the commission likely came to the conclusion between September and December, which is when City started to spiral.

They definitely 100% know the outcome and it’s very likely a huge one.

demoted?

Be a transfer ban. Probably why they spend big last month. A few points knocked off as well.

Yeh, I think so. Apparently, they can't just relegated them. It would have to be a point deduction. That said, they will still probably stay up

Probably give them 1 point more than Everton despite the breaches being a million times worse.

They’ll still finish top half.

I don’t know - the rules they broke are unprecedented and not limited to a fine/points deduction like us.

This ownership and governance from their owners and our own lovely government makes this very very delicate IMO.

I can’t see them wanting to harm that - a £200m fine and a transfer ban would be welcomed and easily digested by them, it would sink other clubs without a trace. They will implement a deal that causes them little to no consequence I bet.

Dont think they can relegate them as a punishment, but they can give them a huge points deduction which could see them relegated (If that make sense)
I mean the punishment wont be 'We are relegating you from the PL'
But more like 'Here's a 50 point deduction'

I heard someone the other week saying that's how it would go if they were found guilty.

I think it has something to do with the PL and Championship being separate entity's and the PL cant say were throwing these in your league for being naughty.
