20 years of success. 1 year in the Championship with players of the ilk of Foden, Palmer etc. who came through the academy with most of your World Class players on loan at other European teams. Immediate promotion and then continue BAU but you now have the infrastructure, players and revenue to be perpetually successfully.
They can’t strip titles, I believe it’s not a penalty they can deal. Which makes it all the more galling that these things drag on 14 years.
Even if relegated you could argue it’s the price of doing business and well worth the cost. A team like City couldn’t have become what it is by following rules designed to stifle competition and let the same group of preferred teams win the league.
