Probably appeal and get it down to one season banSurely they will appeal?
With City being banned, does that mean 5th makes the CL?
5th is a lot more achievable for us but we’d still need Sheffield Utd / Wolves / Utd to drop off.
Yes unless its us who get 5th. Then it'll be just 3 go through.With City being banned, does that mean 5th makes the CL?
Surely the CAS will enjoin UEFA from applying the ban until it's been adjudicated. I haven't followed CAS cases at all in the past but I'd be surprised if the matter were completely decided within six months, so I'd be a bit surprised if the ban were applied next season.Surely they will appeal?
not Wolves?
I forgot Everton too who seem to have improved since Ancelotti took over (although hopefully we should be able to stay ahead of them).

Great, now we are going to finish 6th, thanks mate.Assuming 5th gets champions league now and we finish 5th...that has to be the least spursy thing that has ever happened.
Of course it is possible that they'll allow the ban to move forward but qualification for the group stage is worth something in the order of 50m with the potential for significantly more to follow. That's a massive cost to impose on a company that has yet to have its day in court.Chelsea had transfer ban then appealed and got the jan window reduced

Seriously I wouldnt be surprised if just 3 go through. UEFA hate everything about EPL so doubt they'll drop to 5rh place. Who knows though.
ESPN journalist say the appeal will be heard before next season and that CL places drop to 5th this seasonTheir appeal will drag on for months if not years. So the ban will be suspended until that's over, so no chance it can be relevant for this season, sadly.
