Financial Fair Play investigation

[davek]

Your view is predicated on the idea the that one of the 3 teams we’ve made at least EIGHT points on in 12 games will turn it around.

And assuming they won’t be hit by injuries and we will.

Just to put what you are saying into context, to gain 4 points on luton over the rest of the season we’d need a run rate that is 0.15 points per game higher than them.

Our current run rate is 1.16 points per game with a slow start. Even if we we got 12 points deducted AND slipped into last years’ form which had a run rate of 0.94 points per game, Luton would need to go from 0.5 points per game to 0.79 points per game to match us.

And even then we’d have a superior goal difference.

It’s even worse for the other two.

Even with the points deduction, it would take a massive improvement in form from them, and a big drop off from us for them to even stand a chance.

Factor in momentum lost + morale blow + likely injuries to DCL and we would be teetering on the edge...at best.

Simon Jordan is no nothing bellend Dave.

I hope you're right. There was a lot of certainty in his response to Danny Murphy saying to him fines would be how all these transgressions by Everton, Chelsea and City would be dealt with. A firm 'No" on the question of Everton and then "points deductions".

The decision will be known now and I bet he and a lot of others know too...see McNultys piece saying he'd bet against us still surviving even with a points deduction...another dead giveaway.

People are being briefed and Ild say we're no more than 48 hours away from this being announced.

No offence Dave. But you have been adamant and telling us all for months and months that it wouldn’t be a points deduction, yet now on the word of Simon Jordan, you think it will be, even though he himself was making sounds about how unlikely it would be following the hearing.

You also said this but are now making out that more than 6 points is going to ruin us.

It shouldn't be. Ilm not saying it is. My words were that we should 'brace for this decision'.

I'd like a big flag next home game just saying "Premier League is corrupt".

….it seems to me that they don’t know what to do.

Which is not helped by the press, if that was the case, throwing these points deduction quotes around. I stick to a Fine only. The case ended the 27th October

Davekducks?

I;m nt saying it's a defo points deduction, Ilm saying he sounded convinced...and in any case that we should 'brace' for the decision. And if it is bad we'll see momentum and morale hit for six.

IMO we shouldn't and int get a points deduction...and if it is it'd be suspended.

agree m8.

I think (hope) we will be found not guilty. They will use the King's speech etc about an independent regulator as an opportunity to save face and use it as an opportunity to close the "loop hole" that we may have used.

like you've said they do not know what to do because once this decision is made a precedence is set and with MCFC next and new revelations about Chelsea. It will put them in a massive hole and will have to show consistency in any punishment rolled out.

Once they start they will have to carry on...............

White and jordan are shock jocks. They want anything said on their show trending.

Dave honestly...am not one for vaulting but you could probably pull about 15 posts up where you've said we'd not get a deduction of points.

I thought this lady was not for turning ha

Hearing it’s a 10 point deduction but the PL aren’t sure how to word it.

Heard this from more than one reliable source.

A number of lads I know have been shagging some bird who’s been shagging someone who knows Richard Masters.

This thread has gone mad again, all because of some jarg Geordie multi
and Dave seeing the opportunity to stir the pot ( as usual ) lol

Whatever way, whenever its said - hopefully soon. The leaks will come with Everton and whoever it is knowing the outcome for 24hours before its made public on the prem league website. No way will anyone who knows the outcome keep it from been on the Internet

A normal 24 hours or an Everton 24 hours?

Isn't "all because of some 'x' and Dave seeing the opportunity to stir the pot" more or less the driver of all site activity outside of deadline day?
