[JLW]

Does anyone actually know for a fact what rules we’ve broken yet?

No, because we're waiting on the verdict of the independent commission looking into exactly that question.

….I’ve noticed a few forums calling us ‘the unflushable turd’.

Weird one that isn’t it, we’ve had two relegation battles for the first time since Moyes came in around 20 odd years ago and over the course of the premier league I’d imagine average a pretty comfortable boring midtable.

I don’t think we’ll be in a relegation battle this season unless we get deducted more than 6 points and I don’t think we’ll get deducted any tbh

Could be 12 points maximum deduction per charge, in which case City are off to the Rymans league.

Nah, there’s nothing in the rules about the charges. It’s entirely up to the commission.

That’s so funny
At the time of publishing El Chico e azul was unavailable for comment I’m sure

This isn’t an accident I don’t think. The idea is being planted that we’re getting that deduction, and when it doesn’t happen all hell will break loose. Just seems like we’re the punchbag for the Premier League, media, every rival club fanbase, and I don’t really know why.

Honestly mate, dark forces aren’t using Steve Brown OBE’s troll twitter account as a tool for mind control. A Spanish journo’s had a mare and there’s nowt more to it than that.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

The max deduction they can give is 12 points... City still comfortably qualifies for the CL with that deduction.

This is where these press reports create confusion. There is no prescribed or maximum deduction for any of these offences. Commission has a free hand on it.

IF the Telegraph report was even true then it’s that the PL have requested a maximum punishment of 12 points, ie anything up to. This has been misinterpreted as them requesting “the maximum punishment, which is 12 points” but as there is no max punishment this couldn’t be the case.

Trying to work out if I would hate everton more.than I do now if I supported another club

No one hates Everton more than Evertonians. It's just not possible. But very occasionally we do venture into vaguely likeable if I can remember that far back.

…I saw the term used on a few forums on the run-in last season and I think RS had an ‘unflushables’ thread. Long May it continue.

Actually, that was a really good few weeks. Even top of the hit parade. Good Times!

Time to take on the Millwall theme.
Nobody likes us, we don't care.

I remember when we were one of the 'Big Five' and were fully entitled to that description.

Noone knows, probably the PL dont even know. Probably trying to rewrite the rules to fit an unknown crime.
