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?

    They need the Rangers treatment. I reckon Chelsea would slowly come back, Man City I’m not so sure. Small club with a decade of bought success, at least Chelsea had some history before the Russian money came in. Repossess the stadium and make City an example of what happens to cheaters in football. Punish Chelsea harshly as well.

      This is so lame. City existed before your club and has tonnes of history. Also has a fan base who famously followed their team to the lower divisions in their thousands each week. You don’t know what you’re talking about obviously.

        As a United fan, I agree City had success and a decent fan base long before the takeover.

        I’ll always have a soft spot for City for sharing their ground with United during the war and for their respect when Munich happened - unlike other teams, like Leeds, who were awful.

          Thanks for the kind words. I shouldn’t say it but I have a small soft spot for United fans sometimes too. It’s better when we have a good rivalry between the two Manchester clubs. Although I don’t forgive you for the 34 years banner, you lot are usually pretty resonable.
