We really didn't hear much out of the original hearing.

Only got leaks about a month later when they were about to announce it. Heard nothing for ages other than Simon Jordan making stuff up.
Wonder how our day in court went

Annoyingly he seemed to get some info from somewhere. He was consistent for ages it wouldn’t be points, months and months. One day he piped up it might points be “based on something I heard.” Few days later the news that the PL had asked for 12 points broke.
Not advocating him as a good source at all. But if you go and watch bake off extra slice being filmed on a Sunday, they NDA you up the arse to stop you revealing who got booted for 48 hours until the show airs on the Tuesday (allegedly
). Yet a bunch of lawyers and accountants can’t stop Masters cronies airing our skiddy pants everywhere before the club is told.There's lots of it's, buts and maybes but if we get a points reduction on appeal then the rule change to have any breaches dealt with in a season could benefit us for a couple of reasons
If it had been dealt with last season we would have been relegated - the new rule change means forest should expect a similar punishment to what we get, so hypothetically if it gets halved to 5 points and we get another 5 points we are as-is points wise and forest would drop to 3 behind us, however if it's upheld and we get another 10 points I fear we are screwed
Clutching at straws massively either way, the permutations are crazy

Thing is, he's not wrong, so many disenfranchised supporters from a "sport" that is no longer played on the field, if the sentiment was rare, perhaps would call em out on it, but it no longer resembles the footie I've watched with my old man since early 70s does that make us all fair weather fans like?
Like everything, it evolves.
If we were winning trophies we wouldn't be disenfranchised.
We have ups and down but a supporter sticks by his team or he used to.
