wonder if they'll walk away from punishment, yet again?

Maybe they don't lol
From TWTD post but don't think link works but he post further info taken from it
Good Article - https://www.nytimes.com/athlet
https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6369932/2025/05/20/lei
Key quotes ..
"Given Leicester’s long fight to avoid being sanctioned by either body and their most recent failure to submit accounts to the Premier League, they are almost certainly going to be charged with an aggravated breach. This would suggest a starting position of them getting docked 12 points, though with a good chance that the Premier League will ask for even more.
There is one further thing for the club to ponder, too, as the EFL has still not completely given up on the idea that it could pick up the 2022-23 PSR investigation it was unable to complete when Leicester won promotion last year.
And if that is not depressing enough, the EFL will be all over the club’s accounts for next season, so the prospect of transfer embargoes and agreed budgets is very real."

Blimey!
And they are losing Vardy, plus likely don't have many saleable assests. Hopefully one less promotion rival for next season.

Thing is Leicester have dodged this bullet for years, and it looks like they're finally going to get done, and rightly so. BUT, why haven't Man City also been done. How much longer are they going to dodge the bullet?

Still ongoing - no doubt the best lawyers at hand to drag it out etc.hallamblue wrote: ↑Wed May 21, 2025 6:20 pmThing is Leicester have dodged this bullet for years, and it looks like they're finally going to get done, and rightly so.

Of course it’s a farce though.

Minimum 12 point deduction if found guilty apparently.

Any idea when the conclusion will be? I guess they will appeal too
