Was perfectly good logic thanks. The league used to be better than it is now. I challenge anybody to show me a metric that shows otherwise.

From the Forest side this is a new experience, but based on what Masters said today we think these are the key points. Would be good if you lads could confirm:
1) Everton (record holders for seasons in the top division) and Forest (twice as many European Cups as City) are ‘small clubs’
2) 1 accusation in 2023 is treated more seriously, and swiftly, than 115 accusations before 2023
3) there is a date to look at City’s alleged offences - this date is a secret, but it won’t be this season. The precise timescale for Forest and Everton being assessed is widely published and any punishment will be this season.
4) Coincidentally, the rules will change between this season and next season
5) alleged offences by Forest and Everton are treated one at a time, and immediately. Alleged offences by City are only assessed once every detail of all 115 is known.
Feel free to correct any of this - it’s a steep learning curve

Spending hundreds of millions would have been fine if we hadn’t bought lots of crap. Spending money is the only realistic way to improve.

I thought he called him out quite a bit. Said the premier league needs independent regulation several times.
He’s a confirmed red and yes, very very thick. When we were actually protesting the board they were all outraged that we were “hounding a sick dying old man and preventing him for attending games in the final year of his life
”
Because of the amount of long established clubs with long held roots within a community who have come very close to going to the wall due to the reckless actions of owners trying to fulfil that ambition in a reckless and unsustainable manner.
Before walking away from the mess that they created possibly taking nothing more than a financial hit while a 100+ year old community institution utterly crumbles. Personally I don't think the rules go far enough. There should be no way an owner can burden a club with debts in the manner that the Glazers have and (I think) the current Burnley ownership have.
I'd prefer a system where any debt placed on a club by owner ambition should be their own personal liability until it is cleared off the club books.
Its a tough one because you clearly broke rules and were hit with a deduction. From the outside looking in I thought that was fair enough - you can disagree about the length of sentence but not the validity of the right to pass sentence itself. However, the second charge seems a bit more odd. Not necessarily because you can't be hit twice in one season - i think a similar thing happened to Derby (?) - but that it appears that your appeal would surely negate the second charge. I'm not all over this but surely one charge is in line with the second and that needs to be dealt with first? That said, I'm glad they're getting tough and unfortunately Forest took a risk on when to sell Brannan to maximise profit and that's also against the rules.
So, you two dealt with, now tomorrow is Man City ( a biggish club with lots of money) and then the day after, Chelsea (a small club with lots of money). That's how this works, right? Right?

It also came out how much the PL is trying to influence FL decisions, and it doesn't sound like the FL are too happy about it
oooh, shall we guess who they may be??

I said before. It's more than that. It sounds like the premier league is trying to kill off the EFL.
Your logic seemed to be that because newly promoted clubs don't immediately compete at the top end then it must be a bad league. There are very few historical occasions where this has been the case so by your logic the top flight must have been predominantly poor throughout it's history.
i wonder if we will agree some kind of plea deal with the prem league for both charges like Juve did with Seria A
www.aljazeera.com
Juventus fined but avoid further points deduction in plea bargain
Juventus reach a settlement with Italy’s football authorities over payments to players and the club’s accounts.
How’s it fair to be hit with a POINTS DEDUCTION for a financial breach of £19m relating to stadium payments?!?!?
Kill us off is more accurate .....
Apologise for singing about us being cheats last month.
