Apart from Boris, who will say City won the case even if they're found guilty of all 115 charges

Oh absolutely I've avoided it for the last part, don't understand it, goes above my head most of the details and I have no idea what it entails but it will be good to get it out the road so we can move on but fully guilty, partially guilty or innocent there will be a backlash one way or the other

I think City being found guilty of saying 30 - 50 of the 115 charges will result in some hefty punishment

City will get done on a few of the smaller charges, end up with a fine of about a weeks wages for half their squad.
All the clubs will lose faith with the PL, there will be anarchy and soon Man City will move to the Middle East, Liverpool and Arsenal to the US, Man Utd will fold and Spurs will finally win a title after 65 years.

It is a grim future.

The likeliest outcome is that City are found guilty of not co-operating.

Large fine/small points deduction.

If City don't win then it's Hello European Super League and games played overseas.

So in your view, only by City winning does the current footballing pyramid remain?

Arsenal moving again

Man Cheaty will be found guilty and relegated to the lowest tier of football, the Scottish Premier League.

City are guilty as sin

The ideal scenario

Relegation to League 2

Stripped of all silverware during the 9 year period.
Pep leaves feigning disgust and betrayal and his ends up managing Stoke, in an attempt to prove his doubters wrong he can do it at an unfashionable club without billions to spend.

The Reality

A whopping fine labeled 'The Biggest in Sports History' by all the media and most of the pundits who haven't the courage or fortitude to say how they really feel. A fine that is mere pocket money to the owners.

Pep smokes another cigar and declares the Club has always been innocent and picked on for being the best.

Oh stop it, we have lower leagues don't you know?

It's dragged on for so long, I care very little about it - I can't change how I feel.

But even if they were stripped of titles etc, it doesn't take away visually how the team played or dominated over the past few years - it will just all feel unsatisfactory. The only analogy I can give is if a drug cheat is stripped of a gold medal - the 2nd placed athlete doesn't have the joy of feeling they won it. Any 2nd placed teams won't feel like league champions.

They then appeal against relegation to the SPL, arguing that having to play at such a low level is too much of a punishment.

They win the appeal and are only relegated to the Women's SPL.

Celtic have already beat them in pre season so I'd be confident we'd take them

Yes, United, Arsenal and Liverpool were the drivers behind the ESL proposals and also the drivers behind the PL charges against City who were quick to discreit it.

Which 30-50?

Tik tok, Boris! End is nigh, dear boy!

All of you as PL fans need city to be found genuinely innocent. I don't think you quite understand the wider consequences

Premier league have no clue or no balls to get the correct outcome, the fact it’s took this long say’s so
The billionaire Arabs lawyers will run rings round these amateurs
Even Leicester made mugs of them

It won’t be a points reduction if it’s just non co-operation.

I don’t think anyone can predict what the outcome is going to be though, there’s not enough in the public domain.
