Imo there should be no stripping of titles whatever the result. Pep and the players deserved them.
I believe UEFA failed because their key charges were time-barred, not because City did nothing wrong.
Maybe I am thinking of something else, can’t remember the details.

I have to disagree here. If there's wrongdoing that enabled City to hire Pep and the players then they should be stripped IMO. I know it's not their fault as such (I wonder how they'd feel about it really?) but any other sanction would be pretty pointless IMO.

Let Pep and his players keep their medals, strip the club of its titles
The hearing being brought forward eliminates all doubt now: Man City are guilty.
You lot have already moved the goalposts and demand none of the verdict is public for months. No doubt whilst you try to appeal with nonsense.
City should be relegated and I love the fact today’s news has rattled your entire club.
'Fans of clubs who have failed on the pitch'
If found guilty, this will include Man City.
There's some Arsenal fans on here who think the only reason they bottled it for the last 2 seasons was because there hadn't been a court hearing yet.

Absolutely.
You cannot say the manager and players deserved any success, if financial impropriety by their paymasters was the only reason they achieved it.

It wasn't the only reason, it was good management and good play.
As someone suggested higher up, let Pep and the players keep their medals, but in the history tables show with an asterisk.
Can’t wait to see them back in the conference where they belong

Who was that wee Scots lad they use to play up front too?
Utter 💩
People who think their honours shouldn’t be struck off are the same people who’d leave their uncle/father/brother in family photos. When they’ve been convicted of being a nonse.
I'm surprised there haven't been more comments on here about United fiddling PSR. Allowed to claim for tours that were cancelled
No such deals for Everton or Forest.
That was in the last couple of years, not 2009 and they should be stripped of their FA Cup win.
Unfortunately I’m not expecting them to get more than a fine, and maybe a manageable points deduction.
Watch the City fans then use that as ‘proof’ the club did nothing wrong 😑

Whilst unfair on the manager and the players as they did no wrong, they should absolutely be stripped of titles if the most serious charges are proven. What's also unfair is there is a chance other clubs would have won those titles instead if City didn't cheat(if proven).

At the same time, we can’t go round handing out hypothetical titles Willy nilly
What I rarely have seen mentioned is the period this covers. It's conceivable that if City are found guilty that then are then charged for the same things in more recent years. Although you'd think they wouldn't be this stupid considering they were under the spotlight of UEFA initially and would have stopped doing it, with a good base already built from the cheating(again if proven).
115 charges says it all.
Regardless of the verdict (they’ll pay people off) Man City are guilty.
They’ll be as innocent as OJ Simpson.
Some of the comments on here are fekin brilliant
I'm surprised no one's brought up being late back on the pitch yet, surely the Treble winning season should be erased from the history books just for that.

I wouldn't be handing out titles, just stripping them. This is what's unfair, those clubs could have fairly won those titles but rather than hand them over retrospectively on the basis they came second as they hypothetically(well not so much in Liverpool's case with the points totals) would have won, they haven't actually won them and therefore won't receive them.

Imagine winning all that togetther and it all turns out its been done cheating basically? why would you want the medals? They should feel as cheated by those responsible as the rest of the league.
ofc not saying they werent the best team, theyre the best in the prem era hands down.
As for the OP city werent cleared with uefa, still found guilty and heavily fined? The cas panel was dodgy af with known associates of city on the panel and they were fined for refusal to cooperate for so long which time barred stuff they could be more heavily punished for. Hopefully thats not the case with the prem theres no time constraints and if guilty can be punished in full.
Guilty or innocent the prem are gonna have a lot of questions to answer though thats for sure.

It will be anyway.
However just on the lateness issue, that in itself warrants trophies stripped and points deducted.
If Pep had on average 3 mins longer for team talks and so on, then that just means that over the course of the season City had the equivalent of 2/3 days longer to prepare for a match.
