6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Sussex]

Wonder what we are going to say this time?

Guilty or not guilty???

 

[matty1878]

ok so is this innocent till proven guilty? or are we now

 

[ToffeeTim]

They aren’t out to get us.

Is the whole process a shambles? Yes

Did we break the rules twice? Yes

I would say maybe to this question, considering we got the harshest penalty in top flight history.

This is not the biggest error or act of wrong-doing in the history of English football, so why the highest penalty? I think that's an absolutely valid question and one that the league need to answer urgently.

Considering the attitude towards our mitigations in the last hearing, why should we bother engaging with the process again.

We are being punished mainly for trying to build a stadium in order to become more sustainable.

The only thing I can see asa positive is they have already decided on the outcome of the first one and they know this, so they are playing mind games as they know ours(both and Forest) will be overturned at our appeal?

Straws and clutching!

Players will be banging on Dyche’s door wanting out if we cop more points off.

 

[derek duvall]

Well done Farhad you parasite

 

[kenada_blue]

so docked more points for something that’s not an advantage?

They don't have any guidelines for it as this year accounts apparently filter from accounts already been reviewed and concluded on by the commission....so there's overlap they don't have guidelines on how to punish. The EFL do.

So again, farcical.

Tell you what needs looking into
The way the press are getting the heads up , before any official announcements.
We were hung out to dry before we had even been before the prem last time.
Same again.

 

[spectateur]

Feel like we will get less sympathy from other fans this time around, which is fair enough as you’ve got be proper special to screw up twice.

But we haven't really have we.
They're including the period that we are already getting done for in the second charge.

Well this has ESKalated into what we all thought, absoloute sausage

They aren’t out to get us.

Did we break the rules twice? Yes

I think this remains to be seen, right? Based on the logic of my post above. There seems to be at least a chance of being punished twice for the same year of losses. We'd have to know which specific year would have caused the alleged breach to know for sure whether this is a new screw-up or just a second punishment for the first one.

Time to pack it in tbh. There is just no point in trying to compete in a corrupt league that treats it's co-founding members with such contempt. Had enough of them. CBA anymore.

 

[ForestBlue]

Forest couldn't even be arsed to issue much of a statement in response either

I just wish one or both of us had just said .. "Whatever, see you in court"

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Wonder what we are going to say this time?

Guilty or not guilty???

We've had good times though so it's fine
