Taking away their titles during that period is pointless as, from a legal point of view, you could never prove the financial irregularities led to them winning. They'd be wasting their time.

It feels like some sort of future points reduction (which will only slightly hurt them for a season or two) maybe a transfer ban and expulsion from Europe for a season?

If it's a slap on the wrist I think that signals a new era of football that won't interest me too much. It's already bad enough.

Fines or a few points deduction would mean nothing. They would surely have to be thrown out of the Prem, and not just down to the Championship, down to the bottom. It has to take them several years minimum to get back to the Prem.

If and when they do return, then a five year European and Transfer ban could then come into force.

It has to be severe, otherwise others will do exactly the same.

I don't disagree but I cant see expulsion happening even if it is deserved. This will rumble on for years.

Do we even know what they've done wrong yet? I guess once that's known we'll know what the severity could be. The fact they don't seem bothered probably tells it's own story.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How did you expect City to react? They have to put on a strong face in this and that is what they are doing
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was referring more to the level of arrogance they have over the whole situation and the fact they may perceive they are untouchable.

The owners of City have displayed an arrogance over this that demands them being challenged.

The question is do The Premier League have B @ 1L 5?

They lord it over everyone as the undisputed richest, most powerful league in the world. Time to turn that bravado and power on a club that will only tarnish and stain their league until it's irreparable.

Surprised the big clubs are relishing this given they will all have committed the same crimes.
