6 + 2 Point Deductions

When do we hear what Forest are being charged for? That will give us a huge indication of what punishment they'll get.

We don’t. The first we really knew the details of our charge was the verdict itself.

Damn. Forgot.

this just shows that the rules were not fit for purpose, if us, forest, Chelsea, city and now Leicester are all on the precipice (or over) the limit, thats 25% of the group not compliant, there must be others that are close and make it through good management or fortune (our case mismanagement and misfortune)

The rule is a bad rule. Good rules are largely self enforcing.

Have to agree, as much as that Leicester rumour sounds funny this whole 'points deduction' thing is starting to get a bit silly now regardless of who is involved. It should be fines or restricted spending in some form or another not points deductions.

Crystal Palace’s owner has had a pop at FFP too. Absolute shambles

I wonder if Forest will be forced to go 13 League games with a 10pt deduction hanging over their head?

Of course they won't.

It's an absolute joke that a fan base are made to dwell on this kind of shabite for most of the season when it is supposed to be entertainment

Bit late for us now IMO.
We won’t be getting those 6 points back.

All these teams having to sell players before June 30th to avoid PSR, is there going to be enough buyers? A few teams could be in trouble....

They will all be keenly watching the forest charge. If they get the Johnson mitigation allowed, it will bail out a lot of clubs and then the rules will be changed.

It’s no wonder there’s a lot more calls from owners publicly etc to go easy on Forest and for the rules to be relaxed.

Also what a powerful position for the buyers to be in. They know these clubs literally have to clear some profit before the 30th of June or take a point deduction. If you’re United or Arsenal and you want Ollie Watkins you can literally lowball Villa until they eventually cave or accept 6 points deduction and you probably get the player anyway after 40th June because they’ll want to sort out the next accounting period as well.

It truly is the legislation that has screwed any incursion on the PL elite. Sell your best players to your rivals at the time and prices they dictate or face point deductions.
