You just know this is going to say forest are fine Everton have breached again.

Other way around hopefully

They really only want six clubs to compete, even the Geordies are struggling - yet supposedly they are one of the richest clubs in the world!
Once the “Sky” favourites had spent what they needed to spend and were fully established the rules changed, the drawbridge got pulled up and everyone else has been left to fight for the leftovers, and woe betide anyone who trys to break through the glass ceiling they’ve established!

The fact that clubs like Brighton play the long game in regards to recruitment and general club structure/building must really make the PL blood boil, I like that and there is nothing they can do about it either.

Thought we would have heard something by now.

Same. So far it's still only Ornstein who's actually said anything..

Any minute now I think.

Yeah, I'd imagine Jim White having a huge hard on, as his smirks his way through the "breaking news".

 

[bcblue1878]

We should flat out refuse to acknowledge the charge and do a Man City

Shot themselves in the foot a few months ago with regards to that though, when they admitted to “breaking the rules”! Silence back then would have been the best policy, and the let the Lawyers deal with everything else!

I'm not defending the Premier League but this has been brought in so owners don't cripple football clubs by chasing a dream and then leaving the shell of a football club and buggering off. It's happened to Leeds, Sunderland, Villa, Bolton, Wigan, Reading, Sheffield Wednesday etc. We are now £400 million in debt and still paying massive wages to players who don't even play. We're going to be in hock for the next 20 years because of decisions made in the last few years. Anybody who thinks that's good, well I don't agree with you. I know that if all clubs lived legitimately through their means then the rs and Man United would have a massive advantage, but after those 2 it would be fairly competitive. That's where we need to get to,, although I suspect it may be too late for us, given our debt.

But the rules have failed to stop it happening, haven’t they? And the punishment just accelerates the demise.

Even if I agreed that that was truly the intention of the rules (I don’t)… they demonstrably don’t work to fulfil that intent.

That will be the same Ornstein who said we would be fine the other week.

That’s what VAR is for.

"Rumpole of the John Bailey"

Think we are gonna need Judge Judy Bellingham to get us out of this mess.

Depends whether it's a TV game, notice all the big VAR calls have happened in the TV games.
