6 + 2 Point Deductions

[jazzy]

Me. I honestly didn’t think so. Didn’t have all the facts like everyone though.

Exactly! No one knew so I failed to understand how anyone could be sure of the outcome

 

[JP5]

Dont want to sound like DaveK but just look at the next few fixtures. Will all the refreshingly positive folks feel the same if we get beaten away at Burnley and get the expected results against City, Newcastle, United and Spurs?

Cancel Xmas FFS!

Have you seen the fixtures for the other 3 clubs around us?

Just a huge banner stating “you can’t punish the fans”

 

[Blue Willy]

Sh1t team managers and sh1t club management pay offs probably comes to around £19.5 million in the past few years

So what did we do wrong then?

Broke the rules

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

correct me if im wrong but aren't we still waiting for someone else to be retrospectively red carded for "assimilation" when it happened to Niasse

Lanzini at West Ham as well mate, then there were incidents at a few of the darling clubs that warranted retrospective action but no action was taken. The prem then realised it wasn’t going to work because it meant they would have to start penalising those darling clubs as well.

It’s a shame we don’t have more players in the England set up. If I was Pickford I would refuse to play.

it appears a lot of people such as yourself are getting mixed up with the premier league, the FA and UEFA.

So what did we do wrong then?

There's a 41 page report on it!! But mainly overspending and lying about it.

Yeah, with the Kings head and Prem League logo on it. Kings speech and all.

Put up with the chitshow for 30 yrs that's all.

How would that affect the Premier League?

 

[DuuuncanHadaPigeon]

Has to be something that ruins the PL reputation and hits them where it hurts in terms of media exposure. Should be flying planes with all sorts of slander against them on it. Need some MPs to slam them in the commons and move to bring forward the independent regulator.

This, we need to damage the brand of the premier League. Everytime we are on the telly we need to have visible signs and banners highlighting how corrupt they are. Man Utd at home is now looking like the perfect fixture, watched by millions around the world, we have a chance to send a real message. It will be a bear pit for sure

We won't get that, never mind them. We're on four 'kin points mate.

2 points from safety with a 10 point deduction just applied is a better way of looking at it. We've already done the work to negate this deduction, so now we go again.

The 3 teams we have to beat have garnered 15 points between them and are on course currently to finish on about 20 points.

They will improve on that, but they are exceedingly bad teams. I don't think any of them will hit 30 points.

That's more than achievable, and your doom and gloom is excessive. Of course it opens the door to relegation when we really looked to be clear of it, but we are still in a far better position than we were last year. I would say an injury to Pickford, Tarkowski or Branthwaite would be the most damning, but outside of that we have options.

 

[bag a yoko]

I guess we sould have continued to play our alleged rapist like every other club does.

 

[GP_Monty]

We said one reason for the breach was the interest on the new stadium. Yet they want our brand new stadium to host games for the Euros. Tell them to stick it.

Who is the 'they' in this scenario?
