City banned from CL

City fans don’t care about the CL anyway so I’m sure this news won’t bother them.

Give them a transfer ban as well. Go on UEFA, throw the book at them.

On the other hand, booing the CL anthem from your sofa just isn’t the same...

It'd be pretty funny if we did finish 5th and then had to battle City in court for that final CL place over the summer. Could be Ed's finest hour although he'd probably only hire top lawyers one at a time!

He's wait until the day before the court date and hire one for a price quoted months before

Our lawyer ladies and gentlemen - the one and only Lionel Hutz.

big deal. it's not like they're ever going to win it.

They're also being given a points deduction, presumably to put them off an appeal. No CL qualification due to points deduction and then 2 more years when the ban is upheld.

I feel gutted for Melton, but overjoyed for what this will do to PPLL. It's bad for the city, but realistically it gives us a decent chance of not losing the Adidas money. Pep should show some character and stay with the club, because it would be easy to leave for greener pastures.
