6 + 2 Point Deductions

[kenada_blue]

If they get 4, and we get nothing then I will take that over them getting 6 and we get 2. The gap to forest stays the same whatever and Luton don't get any closer, so it's better for us.

We'll just have to wait

But clearly shows there's more motive behind keeping the integrity of the game in place.

Has it been definitively reported anywhere that we've already had our 2nd hearing?

We haven’t I don’t think.

 

[Ring master]

I think it was only due to take place after the Forest verdict

So it could be starting any day now tbh

Seen a few things over the last few weeks, ours was due to start around the 25th march

How have all the press been given the news release yet it hasn't been published on the website yet.

When our decisions were made they published on the PL website straight away.

This makes no sense at all.

It really doesn't, even Forest fans mustve been expecting 6

 

[Blue Willy]

Coming up to an hour of not being reported anywhere else, other than that Guardian snippit?

 

[witchdoc187]

We deserve the 6 points for signing Tosun.

True that was some sporting advantage

 

[kenada_blue]

Unbelievable. We need to be insisting any further points deduction for us is suspended.

The punishments have more holes that a Dutch whorehouse.

Next week would make sense tbh

Anyone know the particulars of their case compared to ours in terms of over spend?
Regardless of where the money went (misappropriated stadium costs or players) we were £19m over the threshold, where did these lot land?

The Athletic/Ornstein have reported this now

everyone else worth their salt is reporting it now

 

[WestStandLower]

"We consider that a 6 point deduction is the minimum but sufficient sanction" the premier leagues own words not one month ago

That section was in specific reference to Evertons case.

The appeal panel relied heavily on the EFL approach where it is enshrined that the starting point is a 6 point deduction and that number is either increased or decreased based on mitigating or agrivating factors.

 

[Eggs]

….logic suggests our 6 point deduction is now a benchmark. If the breach is financially bigger than Everton’s, then the point deduction will be proportionately greater than 6. If the breach is financially less than Everton’s, then the point deduction will be proportionately less than 6.

Not sure anybody is aware of how much is involved for Forest, surely it’s less than ours.

The process is looking like an embarrassing shambles that cannot stand up to scrutiny.

10 points only galvanises you for 4 games, so in theory they only get 2 absolutely maximum decent performances then back to being poop.
