It would be utterly absurd if we received a harsher punishment than the one that was meted out to the 6 teams who recently tried to end the Premier League and create a European super league.

This is an outstandingly good and reasonable point.
Not that good or reasonable have any relevance to the footballing authorities.

As for the Super League clubs, please see my previous post.
1. Remember it was the club which hinted at a stadium tax problem.
2. The Scab Six made a 'gesture of goodwill' in paying funds for the lower league teams. The Premier League were unable to fine them as they broke no rules - there were no rules against teams opting out of UEFA competition in favour a private competition. There are now.
European Super League: 'Big Six' clubs to pay £22m settlement to Premier League over failed breakaway plot
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd and Spurs will pay a combined sum of £22m to the Premier League; Big Six reach settlement over plan to join failed Super League in April; clubs will face heavy fines and points deductions if they sign up to similar plans in futurewww.skysports.com
No apology needed. So much going on hard to keep up.

The very fact that this speculation bombshell was dropped by the press the very day after the club started receiving sympathy after Bill Kenwright 's passing says everything about how that press and media work against thid club at any opportunity.
Maybe it's the rs that infest the media, maybe its just such easy clickbait for them, given how many supporters the club has. If so, it only works fir as long as people carry on clicking. (Surely by now people have learned enough to stop buying papers).

Along with most supporters at Chelsea and to be fair the other 5 clubs there was absolutely no appetite to join a ESL particularly one without promotion/relegation but the my understanding is that the problem both the PL and FA had was that until these clubs actually played in the ESL ( an unauthorised competition ) they didn’t break any written rule that at the time was in place the only charge that could be pointed to was an all encompassing rule about bringing the competition into disrepute a charge that really brings little of note by way of sanction
If you look what happened post their withdraw from the proposition the clubs actually weren’t fined a £ what they agreed was to make a “ donation “ of £20 odd million to grassroots football. No charge, no fine just a change to the rules going forward
Time moves on but the spectre of a ESL hasn’t disappeared far from its as close as ever and the irony is that UEFA will almost certainly be the body that sanctions such a competition

Apologies Market trader I hadn’t read your post when I drafted this one so sorry for repeating in effect your words
That's right mate we were in bed at the time
Only counts to protect Scab six telly clappers apparently.

So we take on the Millwall theme.
Everybody hates us. We don't care.

No.
Or yes.
Maybe they will wait to see if we can get 3 points from West Ham on Sunday as to whether it is then 15 points instead of 12.
….Sky reported the decision will be known ‘later in the year’.
