Eh, I could see them throwing a bunch of money to get up faster. Plus honestly it should happen eventually, imagine if Notts didn't come up this season. It's a pro league it should get more pro-rel.

I do think city will actually get expelled from the league if convicted, but I doubt the EFL won't take them unfortunately... and even that first bit has obvious doubts

I can see the premier league trying but if it came to a vote things will get complicated. No one has issues voting against clubs they don't like but imagine yuo're a billionaire with global investments and suddenly you get Abu Dhabi and it's many, many friendly companies, bankers, diplomats, bought politicians all leaning on you to not fuck up their global shining star. Or simply straight up bribing.
