Roman Abramovich is accused of paying people under the table. Man City have 115 charges.

Under Abramovich Chelsea have won - 5 League titles, 2 UCLs, 2 Europa Leagues, 5 FA Cups, 3 energy drink Cups, 2 supercups,

Under Sheikh Mansour Man City have won - 7 league titles, 1 UCL, 3 FA Cups 6 energy drink cups, 1 super cup.

Lets say hypothetically the EPL manage to prove it happened. And the points deduction is something that even Man City cannot recover from Eg. 90+ points deducted.

Would you be willing to accept a relegation to the championship for the above memories?

Eg. you saw your club win those things and have the memories of watching it?

    Course you would. That’s what everyone says.

    Are all of your revenue streams morally perfect etc.? I’m by no means defending City on certain issues but I’d been going for 10 years before the takeover and loved every minute of supporting them, so it stands to reason I was going to continue to love it after. Reality is, we get to see the best players in the world and some of the best football the league has ever seen. When you strip it down to basics, we’re incredibly lucky and enjoying the ride.

      I actually would, but then I have morals. It’s the same with any game, the way I see it (and most other people). If you win something by cheating, then it is a hollow Victory that is rendered worthless because if you played fairly like others do you probably wouldn’t have won in the first place. How you can derive pleasure after the fact is something I will never understand.
