Thread: Forest Deducted 4 Points

    Forest Deducted 4 Points

    In the relegation zone now. That Luton equaliser could be vital now.

    Citeh are going to be playing in the North West Counties League, if it still exists, at this rate!

    Incredibly harsh. Im sure they will appeal that.

    Re: Forest Deducted 4 Points

    Forest's arguments:
    1) That they could have sold Brennan Johnson for £30m before the PSR deadline but held out for £47.5m after it, making their business more, not less, sustainable as a result;
    2) It's unfair that they can only make a £61m loss over 3 years as they spent 2 of them in the championship but most of the teams they're competing against can make a £105m loss.

    Can see the logic to both of those. The rules favouring the big boys again?

    English footballs FFP rules are a nonsense and need a serious overhaul. At the one end youve got a closed shop whereby someone as rich as Newcastle cant really invest the serious money they have, and at the other end youve got jokers like that clown in charge of Reading running the club into the ground.

    Premier League clubs can only make a 105m loss over 3 years - average 35m a year - yet players are costing north of 100m these days. The thresholds have not moved with player inflation, they are miles behind.

    BBC haven't mentioned it yet - other than an item saying the club will hear their fate "some time this week"

    Thats a good point, and as usual favours Citeeh, Liverpool and United, you just watch Ratcliffe find a sly workaround.

    Hopefully Everton get another deduction, and then the Luton fairytale has a chance along with a great escape from Burnley.

    Everton to come down next season, I’d quite like a visit to Bramley Moore.

    Exactly. I wouldnt mind if Luton did stay up - Rob Edwards comes across really well and so does Tom Lockyer who is such an imoressive guy whenever I hear him talk about whats happened to him - but as you say from our own selfish point of view it would be better having them back in the division rather than Everton or Forest.
