Roman Abramovich is accused of paying people under the table. Man City have 115 charges.
Under Abramovich Chelsea have won - 5 League titles, 2 UCLs, 2 Europa Leagues, 5 FA Cups, 3 energy drink Cups, 2 supercups,
Under Sheikh Mansour Man City have won - 7 league titles, 1 UCL, 3 FA Cups 6 energy drink cups, 1 super cup.
Lets say hypothetically the EPL manage to prove it happened. And the points deduction is something that even Man City cannot recover from Eg. 90+ points deducted.
Would you be willing to accept a relegation to the championship for the above memories?
Eg. you saw your club win those things and have the memories of watching it?
The punishment is not decided arbitrarily, everyone knows the trophies are tainted. Therefore they are already stripped in every fans mind.
No City fan or Chelsea fan will ever again be able to hold those trophies in the light. The rebuttal will forever be yes but they won the by cheating the system. So just strip them so they can build new legacies.
I am in favor of removing FFP if this is the new norm but as the system is they cheated.
Chelsea for example putting in 3 transfer windows into one windows to prevent their squad from rotting while they are banned is now to obvious.
I digress but anyone reading will know it to be true in their heart of hearts.
Lol you think Im hearing that the club won are tainted just now? Fucking Utd and Arsenal scums were saying that since Mou first wiped the floor with them. They’re just mad their club couldnt keep winning like they used to. Chelsea’s trophies arent tainted or City’s for that matter. If Chelsea hadnt stepped up in the PL, this league would be Bundesliga with shit atmosphere.
But your missing the point.
They ignored the rules of engagement therefore they are forfeit. No one would argue that they backed the clubs and put in money.
But the process of adding money is agreed upon by charter.
Im sorry your actually a victim and it sucks.
What are you talking about? You do know that this FFP thing is recent right?
Ffp was implemented around 2006? 2 years after Chelsea bought the league if I remember correctly.
UEFA started using it at 2011-2012 and PL started 2 years later.
