City has announced plans to appeal the ruling by Friday's deadline. Possible sanctions range from fines and point deductions to expulsion from the Premier League. The case centers on allegations that the club's owners effectively paid most of the reported sponsorship income, with disciplinary measures to be handled in a separate confidential hearing.
