6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Voodoo Billy]

The Super Sunday Matchday programme on Sky really is sticking the knife into Everton and supporting the PL as the good guys. What a surprise

No surprise really, Premier League and Sky are two cheeks of the same greedy, wobbly, financially over-fed arse.

That was not the MO of the scab 6, though.

Their intention was to join a super league, but remain in the Premiership and field almost a second string in Prem games. Hence the reason why the Champions League is being revamped soon, in order to pander to those teams to keep them in European competitions, and out of a super league.

The other 14 could boot them, or leave themselves.

It was never up to them if the rest stuck together.

I agree. I was just stating what the scab 6 were going to do...

Unfortunately the other 14 also know that under the current system the draw of those 6, well 4 anyway, bring a lot of worldwide viewership and money. The whole thing, including the paltry 'fine' only cemented their power within the PL and within the CL.
Sickening tbh

My point is that Luton are not the relegation fodder many have been claiming they are. They are getting better and better.

They have a 5 point gap on us and we'll struggle to claw it back.

Fair enough.

Their next 3 games are Brentford away, Arsenal at home, City at home. Lets see where we are in a few weeks eh?

It's not the time for fear mongering Dave. It's a time for utter defiance on all fronts. Even if you don't 100% believe it, keep up the front, for now, at least.

Time will tell with Luton Dave, but they, and Bournemouth look to be getting some momentum. I think Burnley and Sheffield Utd are going to struggle to escape the drop, and probably won’t. We’re going To need at least one other team to hit the buffers. Fulham maybe?

Burnley and Sheff Utd are down. That's almost certain.

Luton are the low hanging fruit, but they have 5 points on us and we desperately need to peg them back to 2 points arrears today.

Ilm looking ahead and seeing us possibly panic when / if we fall behind in the next few weeks by more than 5 points...and that is by no means impossible.

Exactly.

I'm just being consistent mate: before the deduction I was making the point that Luton are still in the hunt for safety. Even more so now.

 

[davek]

Yeah people are assuming we already know who is going to struggle and get relegated but the reality is that some of the teams around us will go on runs and pick up points. It happens every season. Who would have thought Luton would beat Palace after only winning 1 game all season. We are in a real precarious position if we don't get our points back. We currently have the exact amount of points after 13 games as we did when Mike Walker was in charge but this time is because we have been robbed of them by a corrupt organisation.

We need to hit back immediately.

Three points today is crucial.

 

[davek]

Nah.. imigine winning a cup and avoiding relegation.. it would be the greatest 2 finger salute we could give them..

Yes, it would. But it's unlikely and we risk endangering our PL existence even more by opening these players up to injury with more non-PL games.

Dave , as much as your fears are justified we must not loose focus with the fight to overturn the injustice that has been metered out.
What other clubs do should not concern us until this appeal is sorted.

Yes, but even if successful it'd only be a reduction of at best 4 points, and that would still have us behind Luton atm.

This Wallace gimp defo never kicked a ball in his life and became a journo out of spite.

Darren Lewis is just a very lazy man who never does any research

I just have to repeat this, if anyone place their bets base on Davek’s prediction from 3 seasons ago, they will be bankrupt and sleeping in the streets now.
