-20 points deductions for 5 consecutive seasons.
-Transfer ban for 5 consecutive seasons.
-A massive fine, 500m or higher.
-Adding a massive asterisk on every single trophy they won(or just voiding them all together).
When you FINK about it, this will ensure they get punished on all fronts. Which is suitable for this size of a breach

>>157897363
Initial recommendation for Everton’s 1 charge £19.5m breach was 20 points before being reduced for cooperation (which wouldn’t apply here). Burnley successfully sued them for £40m. 2280 points and 4.56 Billion in damages is the precedent.

I don't get it. The owners of Man City can pump as much money into it as they want indefinitely. It's therefore sustainable.

>>
Only 7 of the charges are punishable with point deductions. If they get deduced 6 points for each one like Everton was, they'll get a 42 points deduction. It's a very bad deduction but I don't think it means immediate relegation, they could survive this if they have a season as good as the last one + a bit of luck. They could simply give up on the cups to focus on surviving
>>
>>157898233
Sheikh mansoor and khaldoun can NOT in fact pump money indefintely into man shitty, because they're private owners who will one day make a serious of bad decisions in a specific period of dire times that lead to them selling their stake to someone who has less than 10% of their spending power or they will just simply re route their funds into much more profitable pursuits and essential projects. Thus the club will suffer and become unsustainable. Then the fans will start sobbing and crying and moaning and seething at the PL to save them
>>
>>157898290
It's basically because hyper capitalism generally uses a scorched earth approach now, insanely pump to gather investments, mostly by hype and downright lies about potential, then rug pull, leaving bagholders with losses.
Footy would literally be pumped and dumped, metaphorically speakin.
One could argue that it would eventually heal footy itself but returning to grassroots etc but just like a busted pornstar, it would never be marriage material and if new clubs and fan culture were too re-emerge, they would be open to the same investment pump and dump tactics again..
>>
>>157898233
Yes nigga. Elon Musk buys Luton Town, brings in Raya + Hakimi + Gabriel + Pacho + Nuno Mendes + Rodri + Vitinha + Yamal + Bellingham + Mbappé + Haaland all with irrefusable offers. His B team is Garcia + Timber + Upamecano + Saliba + Cucurella + Rice + Pedri + Olise + Fernandes + Kvara + Kane. All with irrefusable wage offers so that no one can look their families in the eyes if they dare decline the transfer. No one else ever wins anything again. All is fair because le private property.

That's where the bit of luck comes in. The third relegate should not be close to 40 points. Two seasons ago, the EPL saw its 18th placer score just 25 all league.

True, it doesn't put them in the 20s where you will always be relegated. But its reasonably common for the 3rd team to be in that mid 30s range where City would've been.

City must not be punished as it will bring the entire league down. Punishing them will make the league look like Serie A during the betting scandal. It will blacken the league's reputation forever. It will make it look like the league is decided by arbitrary interventions from unelected officials. Shake City down for money if you must, but the trophies must stand.

By linking other stories he isn't being a journalist but a football news aggregator (which is actually what he is), it's just that particular community note doesn't work to discredit him because he's not proven wrong by the linked tweet.

If the moniker was based on performance over a season or two then you'd be correct but the "Big Six" evolved from the "Top 4" which were so named because they dominated the top 4 positions for an extended period of time.
Everton/Newcastle/Leeds didn't gain admittance when they had a good season in the 00s and neither will Brighton and Bournememe because they're in a purple patch now.

The fuck are you on about? The Big Six came about because it didn't make sense to keep talking about a "Top 4" of United/Chelsea/Arsenal/Liverpool when City were league champions, and because Spurs at the time were a suitably rich club regularly finishing in the Top 4 it became a "Big Six"

It existed as a term before the Premier League: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Six_(Premier_League)#Origins

>n the 1980s, a Big Five—consisting of Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur—emerged. The clubs dominated major competitions in the 1980s. Three of the clubs (Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool) dominated the First Division title during this period, with no club other than those three winning the First Division between 1982 and 1991. Between 1982 and 1988, Everton and Liverpool won every First Division title, in a period known as the Merseyside Monopoly. In October 1990, representatives of the Big Five met with media executive Greg Dyke to discuss the foundation of the Premier League, leading to its establishment in 1992.

If someone made a bet that manchester city WILL NOT win the premier league, and then the trophy got voided/awarded to some other club, can't he legally argue for monetary compensation?

That's a different Big Six m8. The current Big Six as I said evolved from the Top 4 which was based on CL placings over an extended period, not on the historical size of the clubs.
That wikipedia article is just somebody's headcanon anyway, there was never a "Big Four" because nobody in their right mind at the time would call Chelsea a big club, it was the "Top Four"

These are always weird. I was reading about some Brazilians from 2009(?) that I could remember from FM13. The ones I recognised turned out shit mostly. One of them though had played for about 6 or 7 clubs over 6 or 7 years and never made a single appearance for any of them and retired when he was 31ish. I think made 30 or 40 appearances across his whole career.
It always makes me wonder why people keep signing them or if there's something more nefarious going on.

Because he's a plastic who has no concept of football outside of the Slop Six, CL or World Cup/Euros. Also the fact Maresca managed Leicester in the Championship.

It's embarrassing seeing people who not only have no experience of football outside a select number of leagues, but crucially have no interest in exploring further. The scary part is that applies to a lot of people who work in football as well.

Probably better to use Chelsea's because 77 charges over a longer period than City's is closer to 114 than 1. So with cooperation that was a £10m fine and a suspended transfer ban. That would work out as £14.8m, but we'll round it up to £20m because of the lack of cooperation and a January transfer ban for the same reason.

Everton have been punished, they also haven't really benefitted from anything because they realistically haven't got any elite players
Villa are financially fucked due to their wage structure, they gambled big and seem to have gotten away with it. If they hadn't won the Europa and had a few big sales they would have been in serious trouble.
Not sure what you think Brighton have done apart from the interest free loan from the owner, which is now paid back. Brighton's biggest advantages come from the data analytics system they use but that's kind of obvious if your owner is a statistician. They also heavily invested into their academy, which is paying dividends by buying young, developing and selling for big profit.
>>
City should be thrown in jail for the heinous crime of spending money on their club while wearing blue shirts

>>157922948
As for Newcastle, that's probably the funniest one. Massive cash injection from dodgy owner that murders journos. Thought they could just buy players like in FIFA but have no structure in place in the club to support development either on the pitch or off. Then they get fucked by PSR rules and have to sell off all their young prospects. The prospects don't really care because who realistically wants to live in a shit hole for a club that never win anything.
>>
>>157923005
what about for falsifying financial records
>>
FFP and PSR is a joke that was brought in to keep Man United, Liverpool and Arsenal at the top of the cash pyramid. People talk about English football being competitive and meritocratic with promotion/relegation but nobody ever mentions these bullshit rules that only exist to keep the Slop 6 cartel running and all other ambitious newcomer clubs out. This is why I don't give a shit about City misreporting sponsorship revenue. Nor do I give a shit about Abramovich buying a super-squad. This is just the nature of elite football, and throwing a melty and trying to turn it into a court case is pathetic.

I agree, because fundamentally spending money on your club is a form of cheating and clubs should not be allowed to do it.

Think about all the phone apps and startups that sell their products at a massive loss to drive their competitors out of business and then jack up the prices once they have an unassailable monopoly. This was famously what Uber did, and Amazon did it too in the early days. Many other companies have done this too, and it’s still going on now. It’s destroying society. You might joke about “not le hecking spending le money” but private equity firms bankrolling their latest acquisitions to secure monopolies really does need to be banned.
>>
>>157923984
Except it's not a monopoly is it, because any other ambitious club could pursue the same strategy. Your argument is dangerously close to just opposing any competition altogether. Football is a market and somebody is going to capture it one way or the other.
