How much did Man City's rule breaking cost your team?
The potential impact of Manchester City's rule breaking runs deep, including missed Champions League qualification, relegation and Premier League prize money.
Manchester City have been found guilty of inflating sponsorship income by £830m and expenses by £90m, according to a Premier League independent commission. The club denies wrongdoing and has appealed. BBC Sport has calculated the potential financial impact on other Premier League clubs from City's actions between 2009 and 2018.
The analysis suggests that 35 other top-flight teams may have lost out on prize money, Champions League qualification, or suffered relegation as a result. The total financial impact could be as high as £844m, with £88.3m related to domestic cup competitions and the Europa League.
How the figures were calculated
BBC Sport used published prize money from the relevant seasons. For Premier League place money, each team that finished below City was considered to have potentially missed a payment for one place. For relegation, the minimum value of being in the Premier League the next season was used, minus parachute payments. For the Champions League, City's earnings from the following seasons were taken and the impacted teams' Europa League prize money was deducted.
We have lived through a period of deception. No type of punishment will make it possible to repair what was done.

Impact on specific clubs
Tottenham Hotspur were calculated to have a net financial loss of £119.9m. They finished one place outside the Champions League positions in four of the eight seasons City qualified for the competition. Over those four seasons, City earned £148.2m from the Champions League while Spurs took £29.9m from the Europa League.
Liverpool's total financial impact was £52.3m. The 2015-16 EFL Cup final proved decisive: Liverpool lost to City on penalties, and the Europa League place went to West Ham United. Everton's total impact was £66.4m, the third-most impacted club. Hull City were the second-most impacted at £99m, largely due to two relegations. Chelsea had a deficit of £39.8m after finishing fifth in 2017-18.
