Integrity is key, here. For too long, we've abided an integrity-free, repercussion-free society. Football is a tiny part of that, but - well, if the powers that have been using it as PR value it - let football be the first to say no. No more.

It will also increasingly accept inter-personal violence and murder. Because the state does it, right? So..?

Shona Black @shonablack.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Capital punishment *must* be abolished. Not just for its own sake, but for the insidious moral harm it does to society. A society that accepts and condones state murder will inevitably extend the right of the state to murder more..and more..and more.

Since we all really FELT that ancient pooch who wouldn’t drop the ball, I figured I may as well tell you a bit about dogs in ancient Mesopotamia. They leave traces everywhere, from bricks to burials to proverbs. Here’s a 4,000-year-old paw print of a pooch on a brick from ancient Ur

Mud brick with a cuneiform inscription near the middle and two paw prints on the left side.

And especially because of all the really obdurate and apparently obnoxious obstruction, their appeals on sanctions are unlikely to fall on kind ears, shall we say 😅

Shona Black @shonablack.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

I believe they can now appeal any sanctions (and surely will!) but as outlined by Philippe, that process has a shorter leash.

Shona Black @shonablack.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Yep, my understanding is that the delay since the hearing concluded (just about 2 years ago) has been due to City's very vigourous appeals. They've run out of rope, now.

110

Shona Black @shonablack.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

Important point for those saying (understandably!) oh now they'll just appeal for years...I believe they already have been appealing for 2+ years. And they have failed.

An example of one of the damaging knock-on effects of the fraudulent dealings, that likely will never be held to account: City's illegal spending didn't just acquire the best players, it rigged the entire market to put good players out of reach for most clubs.

The offside rule in football: by virtue of where he is standing, refusing to play the team of a genocidal Israel, Gavin Bazunu has just played every other Irish squad member, the FAI, UEFA, and the Irish government, offside.

And if you're a City fan you should be even more furious because players with the grace & skill of De Bruyne or Silva could potentially win titles without a thumb on the scales. But we'll never know because Pep & the board decided they'd fix the game just in case. It cheapens everyone it touches.

A club guilty of a decade-long scheme to submit false financial information to the league, for the purpose of securing an unfair on-field advantage, should not only be thrown out of the league and have all its titles vacated, its owner should be compelled to sell the club.
