| Manchester City Punishment 20:09 - Sep 30 with 678 views | SaintNick | I have to say I read this on line from a prominent Brighton fan who is called Attilla The Stockbroker and I think it's not a bad idea "My last word for the moment on the Man City affair, one I would describe as a Faustian pact to win poisoned chalices. "I think it would be grossly unfair to the fans to force the club out of existence, and a logistical nightmare to remove and reallocate trophies. "So after a bit of reflection my thinking is that the right course of action would be to let them keep the latter, and their ground, and impose a massive fine, to be distributed to the grass roots of the game and any employees made redundant by the changes, and relegate them to the National League, with a very low budget ceiling on player wages for the next ten years. "Plenty of time for the fans - who ultimately are not to blame - to reflect on glories past, and wonder if it was worth it. " |  |

| Manchester City Punishment on 20:50 - Sep 30 with 593 views | dirk_doone | The Emiratis going after the Premier League now: threatening them with legal action. What sort of punishment do you think the Premier League will get? It's certainly a battle of heavyweights: The UAE vs the Premier League. They're complaining about leaks and damaging reporting in the media. Now, where have we seen that before? They're also saying the tribunal was not impartial and fair. It was a bit fairer than ours. There wasn't an ex-Man United player on it. Have you noticed that nobody from Man City is saying sorry? I doubt they ever will as they'll never admit they did anything wrong. They want the Premier League to apologise to them. Right now, they'll be thinking about what punishment they can dish out to the Premier League and anyone who supports their case against Man City.
