    I'd have sympathy for the players, but that's tough. Nothing gained through cheating should go on record.

    Not if those players have knowingly taken payments off the books via third party companies to get wages off the books etc

    That be me
    No you can’t ban them for life
    But he was destroyed

    I think that needs to happen
    I totally get what your saying and why
    I just think this kind of thing has to be stopped

    I agree it won’t be
    We all know what will happen

    the daft thing is they didn’t need to cheat financially
    The only reason I can think they may have done would be to speed up the success - with that in mind the winning is important - I would imagine the legacy domination is of massive interest to them

    which is why I keep going and saying
    Yep all titles removed
    Down to the bottom of pyramid
    I mean playing Wyre Villa as of next season
    60 pt deduction this season

    nothing is too strong for this for me

    IF it’s true it’s calculated cheating - sorry for any players and managers caught up in this but it can’t be allowed to continue

    True. If they knew cheating was going on then they're complicit - but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt until I know otherwise.

    But it's only effecting the past, not the future, so it wouldn't effect players thoughts

    I have zero tolerance for blatant things like this. If I was in charge, I'd be pushing for a severe points penalty over several years to ensure they win ****all; that's how you effect them and the way players view them!

    Or relegation of course!

    Probably not legal though

    Bottom tier of the pyramid and points deduction every year for 10 years and nothing in the record books effects everything to my mind

    edited as I liked the cut of your gib lol

    Like I said earlier, to me it's a matter of principle - ill-gotten gains if you like - regardless of who it is.
    Letting them keep their titles would be like catching a thief and giving them a prison sentence but letting them keep the money.
    It would make a mockery of the system.
    Well, even more of a mockery...

    They'll still benefit from that gain going forward if they're only striped of titles

    I would also hope that all the teams that have been relegated or effected would take the people who cheated (not the club) to court too

    but all these are just my personal wishes lol

    I expect none of them to happen
    Not even sure they could tbph

    it’s cheating by people who don’t give a **** about the game
    People who have been trusted to be custodians of the game

    yeah mega punishment for me

    Yeah, well I haven't even considered anything further, I think taking away those titles is the bare minimum.. If they're to be prevented from benefitting in the future from their past actions then yes maybe more is needed.
    Wouldn't stopping them from doing it again do that job though?
    Anyway, we're probably in fantasy land here - I doubt anything much will happen.

    I honest think you should go talk to marseille players and club on what they think of losing their cl.

    Happy moments? Those are long gone

    Do we think Armstrong dines out on 7 titles? No he's a pariah

    On Lance Armstrong he was just carrying on a long tradition of doping in cycling and followed on from Miguel Indurain and his Banesto team who pioneered the use of EPO .Basically you can assume all winners for at least 20 years were doping .

    I doubt much will happen to City, they can afford the best lawyers and that got them off before. I seem to remember Pep saying he would leave if allegations against City were proven. He won’t. For a further taste of oil money cheating, PIF United ( Newcastle) are considering moving recently parked Ruben Neves from one PIF club to another to cover for another cheat, Tonali. Who would have thought all these oil clubs would be dishonest?

    During Armstrongs 7 years of drug fuelled domination,only one rider out of those 21 podium places was 'clean'.
