Saw the news of the Man City charges verdict might not be decided until 2025.. when Pep's contract is up anyways. Could they just deal with charges piece by piece? Like take 3-4 charges they 100% can prove, dish out 10 point penalty immediately. It seems insane you have charges hanging over you for 3 seasons without penalty and then maybe one season you get 40 point deduction. City can literally just cheat as much as they want and have success, then take a season off where they won't get CL and then back on the horse again. How is that a penalty?
Even if the penalty in 2025 was demotion to League 2. Why the fuck are they allowed to continue like nothing happened? I get that there is due process and there is a protocol but this would be like a sprinter took so much drugs, it was difficult to prove for sure which he had in his system. So he was just allowed to compete for 3-4 years and go to the Olympics while it was being investigated, then they win gold and when it's proven, they say ok you can't compete for one year now :)
