Unless Man City are stripped of titles then any punishment is not tough

A fine is just business and they will just invent a new sponsor

Relegation is a year out while they stomp the 2nd tier. It also punishes those teams because there will be one less promotion place available because Man City will obviously go straight back up

A point deduction does even less than a relegation.

Take away the awards they "earned" through cheating because that's what it was about. On field success. Unless that is taken they have effectively gotten away with it with a mild to soft slap.
