6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Librarian]

Nobody seriously thinks Forest will have their punishment increased for appealing

The Premier league are making it up as they go along.
That's why we have been up in arms.
We have been working with them for two seasons having to sign off deals and not completing others at there behest , got us nowhere.
No use saying its a figure over a certain threshold gets you a 2 piont deduction as nobody knows the formula used or indeed if there is even one?
It's just at the whim of 3 people at the hearing.
It's that good they are scrapping it.
But you and us and I suspect a few more we get hit.
What happens if we both get deductions this season.
Other teams do something similar for next season they get away scot free?

This is the thing, the prem have already accepted that the current system is a mess and not fit for purpose… so it’s absolutely ridiculous that they’re continuing with this flawed process. Just bloody scrap it all now, and restart once a proper system has been worked out and put in place.

Don't give a monkeys just as long we've made it difficult for them like the last minute appeal class

Maybe not if goes up i want it over i just want us get a fair case then move on

Why not if can get lower why cant it go higher by a point?

 

[PITA]

Errr no club should be deducted points even evverton The whole thing is corrupt open your eyes

Why use the word 'even'? It doesn't mean the same as 'including'.

Not happening

Sky Sports News said this morning we should know by the 8th of April

They also said the decision on our first appeal would be announced mid feb which it wasn't. I would take any date announces from them with a pinch of salt, unless cited as information from the league or that Tony Campari fella.

Yep sorry any

Any forest fan bringing up the Johnson point deserves to be laughed at.

Said it before but if we'd have refused to sell Richy before the 30th June accounts deadline, and instead kept him for a few months and played him for 90 mins in a game in which we took 3 points from a relegation rival, there'd have been uproar.

Forest somehow think this is a mitigating circumstance.

I don't think so, if they can prove that they got more by holding on then isn't that better as far as sustainability goes? Or do the PL want teams to sell for less by a certain date, if this is the case then the rules are even more of a joke than I could have ever imagined.

This gets right to the question of what the rules are there for.

If they’re there to make clubs ‘sustainable’, then getting an extra £17m by waiting 9 weeks should be allowed (for Johnson, and for Richarlison too)

if the rules are for some other reason (eg stop 14 clubs being competitive) then we should have sold him earlier

The so called increase is sanction is just fear mongering to dissuade clubs from defending themselves.
