If the dodgy transfer dealings are proved then a points reduction would surely follow?
Hope so West Ham relegated, Newcastle not promoted plus massive finesQuote:

If the potential for points deduction is there, which I imagine it is then this creates havoc for the playoffs which are pretty soon.Quote:

to speed given that it's happened nigh on as soon as Newcastle's promotion was confirmed. Gives them a little bit of time to sort things out before the end of this season perhaps.

Rafael Benitez, celebrating promotion on Monday, told reporters it was good to work at a club where there's no backroom politics, a not so subtle reference to his tumultuous time at Real Madrid.Quote:
