    19 other clubs didn’t break the rules though? (In the case of city, this may change)

      I don’t see what that has to do with the fact the punishment being excessive. If you got the death penalty for littering would that be fine cos “millions didn’t break the rules”?

      The punishment is completely unprecedented and completely out of proportion to the rules breach. £6m a season over. That’s the equivalent of one star players wages, such as the wages we had to pay a certain Icelandic midfielder despite the fact he couldn’t play. To suggest there was even close to a 10 point sporting advantage is laughable.
