People always like to point out that City ruined football, but the FA and the other authorities just letting Roman financially dope his way through success was rhe bigger alarm.

None of it matters now. They've reaped the benefits and any points deduction doesnt make a difference.

Woah. Chelsea would get mocked plenty for it.

But at the time of the take over there wasn't FFP and they were still being mocked for the way they became successful by most.

Blackburn did it in a smaller way. Chelsea went nuts and City perfected it.
