"What a lot of absolute trollop." The Journos on Manchester City being found guilty on 114 of the 115 Premier League charges, and why English football's "sporting integrity" was never what it's cracked up to be.
Peter Martin, Hugh MacDonald and Gordon Parks on Henry Winter and the myth of a clean game (Sam Allardyce, Don Revie and the brown envelopes), the nervous chairmen around England, and what should happen to City now: relegation, which would drag the EFL in, three seasons at minus 30 points, or stripping their titles and opening the door to compensation claims from the likes of Liverpool. Plus why a 500 million pound fine is "loose change", Newcastle and the Saudi money, and the Scottish parallel: "the side contracts is embarrassing" and how the Rangers EBT and side-letters story has been retold since ("Rangers weren't relegated").
Relegation, minus 30 points, or strip the titles? What should happen to Man City? Tell us below.
