Those moments where stolen from other fans,cheated out of their chance to celebrate.
They canāt be taken back and going forward city canāt be allowed to say āweād have won this or that but for points deductionsā. Kick them from all cup competitions and relegate them as far down the tiers as possible, forcing them to spend at least 10 yrs in the wilderness.
Also acknowledge that all their success has been by cheating and have it be said whenever anyone mentions any of the"success" theyāve had in recent years.
Elite level players chose them this summer knowing that this was on the horizon. A quick look at Transfermarkt shows that their major players are under contract until at least 2030 with Haarland until 2034.
These players canāt just walk away from the sinking ship, unlike Pep, and their squad as it stands is good to enough to compete at the top level until the punishments take effect.

Even the mayor on NYC is joining the trolling

Itās funny how many bigoted right wingers in the states accused Zohran of using some sort of āterrorist codeā because they were unaware that heās a huge Arsenal fan.
its still a POTENTIAL house of cards
faced with a stale squad, and a lack of elite level coaches, the players will agitate, prefering to not spend their career in football purgatoryā¦
im not suggesting a wholesale exodus, but at that level, the smallest drop, the little one percent, makes all the difference.
then you bring into what they might have to do to comply with wages at a lower levelā¦
in that video above, i think Bent says they can turn to the academyā¦which is not a moot point, but ones you step out of the academy, youāre on the open marketā¦ you reckon this years Foden regen is happy with a lower wage 'cos he has Citeh DNAā¦
i get they arent dead in the water, i get they have options, i mean, hell, they could just cheat again, no ones gonna go through this again, but my point is, whatever the fine/consequences end up being, no issue with them playing funny buggers and dragging it out, longer term, hurts them more than the rest of the leagueā¦
best thing they could do is cop the punishment, feign indignity (already playing that card) and see out whatever punishment is given to themā¦that way the narative of the redeemed survivor plays nicely for them, and they may just have enough quality in the existing set up to ride over the bumpsā¦
so i say drag it out lads, fill yer bootsā¦have at itā¦just makes the punishment and the moral narative even worse for themā¦
Burghfieldā¦arguably his funniest piece. 
Is there a more validated person alive than Nick. Heās been banging this drum for 15 years

He seems to be alternating between somber reflection on how fucked this is and doing celebratory dances

you reckon this Pinto bloke sleeps with the lights on?
Letās check in with Andy Townsend for his take on the dayās news

This week, with this news and the Massachusetts lesbian bar drama, is a reminder of what good twitter can still do.

I did like a comment I saw before on one of the voxpopsā¦āthey canāt relegate a big club like Man City to league 1 or league 2.ā
Iām only 43 and I remember them playing at that level. In fact anyone born before 1992 can.
I think it shows more about Andy Townsend than the āWalkerā.
It is obviously an issue thatās been bothering him. Does he have evidence he went for a shit, did it save the Walkers life, if he lent him Ā£2 would he get it back and if not would this lead to a Shit Gate part 2? Did he give the pub the Ā£2 he was willing to lend?
I can understand the principle of the matter, but we have all been in that position. I suppose AT has never urinated on the side of a motorway, used a service station without buying anything.
He has been providing shit punditry to peoples households for years without any consideration.
Additionally, he was paying no attention to his dog. It would have been so funny if the Dog dropped a couple of logs in the back ground.
Needs to start a go fund me page.
