Genuine question. Is demoting them to L2 fair on the Conference/ L2 and L1 teams? [Post edited 13 Oct 14:18]

It not fair on those teams, but Man City's need to face some serious consequences to their behaviour. That can't just be financial, as their owners will just shrug their shoulders pay up, and city will continue to benefit from their cheating.
Personally I'd be happy with a 40 point deduction each season for the next 10 years they are in the Premier League. It would stop them reaping the benefits of their cheating, and would likely return them to being a midtable team, flirting with relegation. Basically where they were before the doping of their accounts. It'll never happen though. |  | |  |

I should add:
SFL entry
Following the vote by rival clubs to reject the application for direct entry of Rangers to the SPL,[119] SFL and SFA executives proposed a direct entry to the Scottish Football League First Division.[121] Scottish Football League clubs felt that they were being forced to deal with a situation which was not of their making. Notable opponents to direct entry included Raith Rovers chairman Turnbull Hutton,[122] who said that lower league clubs were being "bullied, rail-roaded and lied to" and described the conduct of the governing bodies as being "corrupt".[123] Clyde[124] and Falkirk[125] also voiced strong disapproval of Rangers entering the First Division, with the Falkirk chairman Martin Ritchie claiming that parachute entry would be "totally unacceptable".[125]
The SFL voted to let the club join as an associate member and placed Rangers in the Third Division. Agreement was subsequently reached on the transfer of SFA membership.[126] Sevco Scotland Ltd agreed to accept all conditions relating to charges against Rangers FC of bringing the game into disrepute, including a 12-month transfer embargo, the payment of all outstanding fines and football debts, and agreement on broadcasting rights. The Scottish Premier League retained its right to the potential application of sanctions, including an investigation into the clubs use of EBTs and any penalties that may be applied as a result of it.[126] The decision allowed Rangers to complete their first fixture just two days later, a Ramsdens Cup tie against Brechin City at Glebe Park.[127] |
This has triggered a question that I hadn't considered before. If City get a massive points deduction that results in relegation, will they still get parachute payments? Feels like it would be rubbing salt into the wound... |  | | |

Oh no.
This will be the next 'We'd have won the Champions League five years in a row if it hadn't been for Liverpool' delusion. | | | |
