I genuinely have no idea what to expect, it's pretty much unprecedented.
I'm more leaning towards being cynical and them getting away with basically a slap on the wrist, but I can see an argument for being more hopeful and them getting a genuinely huge punishment including relegations, because the PL will want to send a message that they mean business when it comes to fucking them about.
Obviously my preference for having them liquidated them and them starting again in the 10th tier isn't going to happen, but to my eye there's a range of plausible outcomes anywhere between from getting off scott free to being relegated to League 2 and the owners being forced to sell the club.
We just don't know at this stage, and anybody claiming any certainty whatsoever about this is either lying or delusional.
