This is weird: if tiny Girona win La Liga and Man City doesn’t win the Premier League, Man City could get dumped from the Champions League down to the Europa League because of rules around teams w/ the same ownership playing each other.

Oh how I wish this happened on all fronts, but given the money involved I can't see how UEFA doesn't find a way to let them both in. It's the same with the mythical 115 charges. I just don't see the Prem docking points or stripping trophies from their golden goose. Maybe one day I'll be less cynical.
