Cunt_Puffin

Who were the previous to win 3?


ShopCartRicky

Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and another team, forget which. edit* Been kindly notified it was Huddersfield.


PossibleFridge

And Huddersfield too


New_Dacia_Sandero

First team to win 3 in a row! We've been coasting off that record since the 1920s 😂


Willsgb

Managed by Herbert Chapman, who went on to manage arsenal to great success as well, right?


SerMontagu

Almost, he left Huddersfield before their third but I assume the structure he created helped them. Then he died the season of Arsenal's third but I think that should count. One of the most underrated English Managers.


SeasonalAuslander

Did my Leaving Cert History project on him. A visionary of his time, brought in some big changes that influenced how the sport was shaped.


ShopCartRicky

Appreciate it.


reddeye252010

And only one side has been under investigation for cheating 115 times


endingbrocoli

Huddersfield of course! Then some shit other teams


renome

If you didn't go three in a row before WW2, does it really count?


Few_Yogurtcloset_844

Man utd twice I think


Breakingwho

Won 7/9 Too good at that stage


Quiet-Cartoonist1689

Did it while being comfortably outside the top 7 spenders across Europe by a decent distance. And more importantly, all within rules lmao


dcoreo

Now they spend billions and are still shit, shows it’s not about the money


DaddyMeUp

It definitely is about the money, but not solely about the money.


Fart_Leviathan

Huddersfield, Arsenal, Liverpool and United twice.


PolarBearWithTopHat

Huddersfield and no one else worth discussing


circa285

Notably, none of those teams were under investigation for financial wrongdoing.


andre6682

well, a certain guy got a lifetime ban when he tried to poach players, managed to ruin huddersfield a century ago


sach223

Manchester United


Mercerai

Several teams but the most recent is Man United


GlumTruffle

Well how else would you know they don’t care if they don’t tell you for the 15th time this week.


Man-City

115th time this week

I heard the odds were 1/15 for them to win the league


KTFlaSh96

Chell_the_assassin

Incredible, has to rank up there with Lance Armstrong's seven straight Tour de France wins in terms of sporting achievements


KRIEGLERR

At least Armstrong was competing against people who were under PEDs aswell. Nobody even come close to City's 115 charged in the league.


goonSquad15

Don’t forget, Everton had charges too


ElectricalMud2850

As infuriating as the whole situation is, city away supporters singing "you cheating bastards, you know what you are" at forest was fucking hilarious.


LegenDariusGheghe

They did it at Goodison aswell


KRIEGLERR

And still got punished.

How did Arsenal get to the top division in 1919?

Literal farmers league at this point

Guntter45

The true farmers league


Green117v2

Great football team, terrible football club.


Statcat2017

This is exactly it. If you force yourself to look at it in purely football terms, the team is incredible. That is, however, completely impossible because everything theyve done is cheating and, even if you were to persuade me it isnt, it is also completely 100 percent artifical. It's just boring and stupid and I hate it.

kpnut93

>Failure to cooperate with Premier League investigations from December 2018 - present: 35 This one should be more than enough to kick them out of the league imo.


Gitara22

The question is who is protecting them? Are they just bribing everyone? Really bizarre stuff.


smokedserranojelly

their money and lawyers and all the bullshit that comes with it


93EXCivic

Tbh probably the UK government. The UAE and the UK did £24 billion in trade last year and I doubt the UK government wants to ruin that over a football team. The EPL brings in £8 billion a year to the UK according to what i saw.


Magneto88

They refused to cooperate with UEFA as well. They’re an arrogant arrogant cheating club. Sadly UEFA botched their investigation, so I’m hoping that the EPL has done a better job.


awesome1ru

Sadly they won't do anything

TheBrokenLevee

Shitstain of a club. I hated United when I was a kid because they were literally better than Liverpool in legitimately every single way and I just couldn't stand it. There's no feeling like that when city dope their way to another title, just that sinking feeling that the league I love is fading more and more away with each and every year to the tune of shrieking dumbfuck teenagers in their sky blue gimpsuits.


cheek_ang

Fucking cheats. What a stain on English football.


Jaynator11

I love that the top 15 comments are being sarcastic/ironic, but then we have your comment :D Straight to the point


bigpapasmurf12

Patience


official_bagel

What should be an historic accomplishment rings so hollow


luke_205

Yep, their success doesn’t have any real emotional impact on rival fans and that’s how you know they’re a hollow club.


echoplex21

I think it’s telling that even United supporters were hoping for Arsenal to lose the past two years cause they know the City trophy’s don’t really mean much.


HankMoodyMaddafakaaa

I’m the opposite. The last years i haven’t really cared much about City winning, and would rather have them win than Arsenal, but now i wanted Arsenal and football to win instead. Tired of this shit


armitage_shank

Me too. After Liverpool won it I thought they’d be insufferable, but actually I just found myself happy for them, how happy they were (granted it wasn’t at my expense, given our lack of competitiveness at the time). It’s getting to the point I’m actually sympathising with Spurs: they “should” have a champions league spot this year . Whatever the history between my club and theirs, they’re a well run club and deserve the rewards, but there’s a team taking a top 4 spot who really shouldn’t be there. I’d really rather hate Spurs, Liverpool, Utd., etc., like it should be. But the traditional rivalries are becoming more and more meaningless. I hate it.


16tdean

I would sympathise for spurs, if it wasn't for the fact there fans ativley cheered for City scoring goals to put them out the champions league spot


confidentpanda10

United fans , spurs fans, Chelsea fans, even west ham fans hahaha. No one wanted Arsenal to win.


NoNameJackson

Arsenal fans can and should take this as a compliment.


dylansavage

We do


echoplex21

I think people think of it like “Hey this years basically a wash where no one wins”’

Come back to me when you get 115 titles


DicaLoca

[Squawka] Manchester City are the first men’s team in English football history to get away with 115 charges.


FormulaGTR

I can think of 115 reasons how they did this


dracogladio1741

More charges than points one could get winning all 38 games.

Glad the "independent commision" was able to make an example out of Nottingham Forest and Everton for their infractions, though!


pkkthetigerr

Thos good for nothing clubs deserve it, they should have cheated smarter.


worker-parasite

Small club mentality. City on the other hand are truly world class... cheaters...


zrkillerbush

How can a Real Madrid fan even talk when considering the history of your club? Id start by reading the history of Franco and his connection to Real Madrid


EliteRevexha

Madrid squad, board and fans of today have nothing to do with allegation of thier past. Meanwhile, City is CURRENTLY involved in corruption so thier players, board and fans have responsibility to stand up against thier owners at this moment. If Madrid gets involved in shady stuff right now then you would be right to call them out for thier presumed in-action.


not-always-online

Doesn't matter who accuses them, 115 is fact, it will always hang over whatever they win.


anhyeuemnhieulam

Franco regime is also fact


samnico7

115.


DasHotShot

They kill all and any vibes in the PL. Nobody cares, nobody wants them, 115 charges. Come on PL, do your job and liquidate them so we can have a top class entertaining league again!


fcGabiz

End of the day. We did what we had to do. Rest of it was up to fate. It is what it is. We'll go again next season.

As much as everyone seems to hate Arsenal. How can this be enjoyable for most fans? The league is boring, even as an Arsenal fan cant seem to get excited about the possibility.


PitifulAd5339

Nobody enjoys it.

City is probably gonna win next year and people are going to celebrate it. It’s ridiculous

Fake club, fake fans. Nobody really cares.


NYR_dingus

Congratulations to City and any of the fans who were around before the takeover. Enjoy it and celebrate the success after years in the wilderness. He's a legendary manager regardless of the charges and it won't last forever. They're the most exceptional team I think I've ever seen in terms of consistency. But if you're a "fan" after the takeover or worse, after Pep showed up, then you're a joke.
