6 + 2 Point Deductions

[EFCPaul]

Nothing to celebrate, all the PL have done is cover their arses a bit before this second charge (and inevitable guilty verdict) comes down the pipe. Probably another deduction for the likes of us (and Forest), whilst City continue to lift trophy after trophy and laugh.

The PL is a disgusting and corrupt organisation and the commission are clearly a kangaroo court. It's a closed shop and any club that ever has the cheek to even lightly knock on the door will be smacked back down.

Independent regulator now.

Please recruit them for THE NEW ARENA and we shall deal accordingly.

I'll start inviting them to join GOT. Not sure if the Athletic will allow advertising other forums though?

Lower revenues, higher interest costs.

But a much easier argument to say no sporting advantage, especially since we've already been punished for the majority of that time frame

Signing players can give give an advantage on field. I'm not sure how racking up debt and paying interest will.

Hey guys let’s continue to project catastrophes as that’s been real fun past few months.

I swear they spend all day, sat there with the curtains closed, Leonard Cohen albums on repeat, glued to GOT, just waiting to nip in and post another doomsday scenario, the moment anyone posts anything remotely positive.

The way all the mitigations were handled again just suggests that FFP is deliberately there to stop smaller clubs from spending too much to challenge the elite.

None of our mitigations were given any weight. We should stop expecting they will.

It absolutely is, especially at the UEFA level where it was a way to soothe the clubs who eventually tried to start the Super League to ensure they stay on top.

Who am I to buck the trend?

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Lower revenues, higher interest costs.

Would non-stadium interest have increased that much in a year? Our more recent borrowing is much more directly attributable to the stadium.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We should keep challenging them at every opportunity we get because some of the findings don't make sense.

The sporting advantage one doesn't makes sense if the reason for the second charge is increased interest charges.

I just disagree with the idea of sporting advantage. It cannot be quantified, it's impossible.

 

[MikeH72]

Other teams. They're fuming

Why? We’ve been deducted 6 points and they haven’t?

 

[Melchizedek]

Guys reading this, you know who YOU are.

I've heard that because the second charge is partially for the same period as the first, that puts us in doube jeopardy which quadruples the punishment.
Expect 24 points deducted at the end of the second commission.
