A big points deduction / relegation doesn't help the premier league or sky. I'm sure loosing city for a few seasons would loose them money.
Likely a MASSIVE fine and a generous points deduction. Other clubs will most likely want a bit of the action as in money. I doubt they care about honours. Money matters more. No point getting a league title award from years ago and no money?
Just my opinion anyway.

Arsenal need another open top bus parade. Only so they can do some more stabbing though !
I think a big points deduction is most likely. That would mean the EFL would have to put them in the Championship - which expulsion from the PL would not oblige them to - and they would be strong favourites to be back in a year (somewhat dependent on restrictions on transfers)
🤣 called the new saints now and there based in England lol

Southampton got barred from promotion to the Premier league because some bloke had taken photos of opponents training from behind a bush.
By how big a multiple does that penalty have to be scaled up to match man city's wrongdoing?
Mere relegation to the championship doesnt begin to touch the sides.

I wonder what the HMRC view is of the off books payments and directors duties on tax compliance and the like

They generally frown upon it. Especially if the officials happen to be Man United fans.

I was thinking about directors responsibilities mainly, which seem to be absent, particlarly the non cooperation bit.

I'm so glad we beat them in the final!!
Imagine how p1ssed off we'd feel if we lost to cheats that day!!
They've gotta be relegated down the pyramid and also have transfer embargo placed on them!!

Man City aren't a big TV draw for Sky, they are a hated club by most fans for cheating. The big TV draws are Aresnal, Liverpool and Utd worldwide, nobody will miss City bar a few deluded City fans.

Expulsion would be the best result. Then it would be a question of who would allow them to join one of their their leagues. I expect the EFL would want them in but dare they put them straight into the Championship or would they feel they needed to dump them in League 2? Hopefully the latter.

Why not? It happened to Rangers in 2012 due to financial "misdealing".
It only took them four years to get back to the SPL but other teams benefitted from increased crowds and coverage while they were doing it.

The prem leagu have had to spend over a £100m on legal costs. That is money that would've gone to other clubs like ours so man city will def have to pay this amount back!!

But but but.... They have done so much to regenerate the run down east side of Manchester, didn't you know how heroic and unselfish the whole venture has been??!
And now you want them to pay tax?! To the UK?!
A lot of these people are just too wonderful for that sort of thing....

I think it nearly killed Scottish football didn’t it? The top flight became even more one sided

It helped lower league clubs a bit. Cut down on Glasgow police overtime as well.
