Dunno if I'll watch this one. It's late and I'm really tired of watching us not score goals.

900 million pounds. I mean I knew it was probably a lot but that number is so so so so so massive and the PL have put out such a strong statement here that I don't see any way out of this besides the complete destruction of Manchester City.

Nah, fuck it, completely nuke the club. The old real fans can make an FC City of Manchester to match up with FC United of Manchester if they care enough. The entire institution of Manchester City FC and the City Footballing Group as a whole should be completely wiped from modern history and football as a whole.

Also to point out: that's more than our fucking stadium cost. Over double. And they got theirs on taxpayer money.

I wonder how many of our players would have stayed if City money and Chelsea money hadn't cheated their way to where we are. Reckon Wenger would've had at least one more title.

The purpose of these schemes was found to have been to artificially inflate the club’s revenues, and reduce its costs, by more than £900 million during the affected period, to appear to comply with financial rules.

and from Dick Masters: "This disciplinary case, and this decision, are the most significant in Premier League history." which hopefully means a punishment that matches said significance...

also tbh good few I know were probably in that squad that I don't know the faces of cuz I never watched them play live lol

I mean, fair, but still, just teasing all y'all

Not sure why they've done it, but this exists separately now.

Elneny's back in Europe! Playing for a team in the Greek league.

I wonder how many of us were alive for it. I certainly wasn't even close.

I mean, we can see his reaction and action and judge already. It was clearly deliberate. He didn't even attempt to sugar coat it. He literally got asked about it after the game and just said "it's football". Even fucking Haaland, his own former teammate, didn't shake his hand because it was such obvious and deliberate ratfuckery. Most obvious red card I've seen in international football in a while and to say otherwise is an insult to the sport.
