TLDR
A September 27, 2026 post describes a hypothetical route to the National League: if Manchester City were excluded from the Premier League, the EFL would reportedly be prepared to oppose the club entering the Championship, League One or League Two. The post emphasizes that no sanction had been announced.
Separately, another post that day, citing The Times, says a sports lawyer believes the length of City's case could put the Premier League's handling of the process and the independent panel under “serious scrutiny.”
