Man City let off…?!?

Earlier today Manchester City went under consideration to be banned from 2 years worth of Champions League football, which would have meant that 5th place would have been a Champions League place in the Premier League…
BUT… Earlier today they have officially allowed Man City to play in the Champions League next season…!!

They have said that they broke the rules, and all they had to do was pay the £10 Million fine, but they can continue to play in the Champions League next season… Is this a bit unfair?!

This is what Leicester Fan TV’s Sam had to say…
“It is a bit unfair that they can break the rules, have the ban uplifted just by paying a fine. They should have had the permanent 2 year ban, but with a club that size, we all saw this coming. With this said, we should not have to depend on other clubs mistakes define our season, we needed to get into a top 4 position regardless of Man City’s ban, and we have let it slip from under out feet. We have 3 games to win a MINIMUM of 2 matches, and i can’t see that happening…”

This is what you, the fans, had to say about Man City’s ban being uplifted…

If we cant get a top 4 spot on merit I wouldn’t want to be in CL anyway to be honest. Rather have Europa if that’s what we have earnt. As to the team, sadly we are being exposed lately. We still have a group of exciting players who can over achieve and develop, but our squad is still weak, and we need a stronger spine to the team that can cope when a few go of the boil, as has happened recently. We need players who can adapt to tactical changes without affecting their style of play, and I don’t believe we have that presently. Still believe Rodgers is the man, and hope he proves that with a successful transfer window to begin the development of his squad.

Chris Williams
Doesn’t matter. We were 14pts clear of 5th and shouldn’t be in a position for this to matter. Only ourselves to blame. Shocking since the restart and pretty poor before it, Villa win aside

Craig Hendry
With the possibility of only having a short break between seasons as well, we should worry about next season also , can’t see us getting off to the same start this time around

Adam Behagg
I blame the poor transfer window on bringing in a wolves ( reserve ) bennett. The club was dying for new blood and old blood needed to be released neither of which happened !!

Riz Siddiq
I’d rather finish 5th for automatic europa league. Finishing 4th means we have to qualify and that will cut short and even tight pre season schedule.

Luke Maitland
Football is rapidly heading in the wrong direction IMO, it’s becoming a corrupt sport and there’s no evidence to suggest that it’s likely to change

Nick Morris
All the best to them we are LCFC and proud of it

Mark Watson
We’ve been poor second half of the season, got ourselves to blame

Mick Hewitt
We have lost all the big games this season. Even Puel managed to win some of these.

Ryan Anthony
We aint good enough. Anyways on this story how many backhanded payments to make this ban go away ??

Derick Hare
Rich club, UEFA need them, what a month it could have been for us, still could be, we will see.

John Mawby
We deserve not to be in the Champions League anyway, with the way we have been playing this year

Brad Spencer
The people wouldn’t want teams like Leicester and sheff u in the champions league. They was waiting to see who was most likely to finish 5th.
