Appropriate fine for the snakes

[BNJ1878]

This came up on Twitter earlier.

I'm saying a fine as a punishment because I don't believe the FAPL have the nuts to relegate/points deduction.

Somebody suggested 10m, laughable as that's less than half a Rhian Brewster.

What do you feel is appropriate?

Money won't hurt billionaires unfortunately. Harsh punishment by relegation has to be an option. Money would be pointless.

100m or you're not serious.

They should be made to pay their home games behind closed doors for the rest of the season

That will show them!

Ban them from Europe for three seasons, it will kill them and players won’t be happy.

Ban them for life.

The more I see of Perez's comments and the clubs "apologies" the more it annoys me.

As for the fans and players the players can just move on to somewhere else, the players can enjoy rising through the divisions with their new phoenix clubs as they are "big" clubs they will come up straight away.

Chuck them out.

Arsed. Let them play fantasy football for ever. They have proven they dont care about any of the other 86 clubs in England, well, 86 out votes 6 every day of the week.

Are the Premier League going to punish their cash cows of ManU, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal? I think they are likely to take a pragmatic approach.

100m at the very least, a points deduction that will see them fighting relegation plus a 2-3 year ban from European competition.

 

[Papa Shango]

Actually just ban them from their games being shown on TV for a year or two, complete media blackout for them.

They can still play etc but their boss fans will soon tire of not being able to watch their boys every week from their couches and will soon start to do other things.

Make them proper pariahs.

Nah. Just their pasties.

I think 3 things should happen

1) A very large fine for them all which is distributed through the football league and non-league

2) A ban on competing in europe for the next 2-3 seasons

3) Rule changes by the PL so that everything is legally watertight and that any future negotiations in a breakaway, without consent of the league, will result in automatic expulsion from the league. They would have to start again at the bottom of the non-league structure.

Nah. Just their pasties.

I love a pasty. Large traditional at London Bridge when I am on my way home from the Lane after a few pints really hits the spot.

Unfortunately I don't see the league having the nuts to do that. I read The Esk blog yesterday and his suggestion would be wonderful. Relegate all six so at least 3 are down for at least 2 seasons.

Just can't see it.

It would, but they just don't have the nuts.

Chuck them out.

Agreed, but it won't happen. If Leeds, Southampton and Villa had refused to play it would have brought matters to a head, but you just know they would be the ones punished.

Exactly. Same for a CL ban from UEFA.

They're terrified.

A huge fine is the only option available.

Arsed mate.

You support a scab club. Own it.
