Ha,i love him,pity none of the others have the gonads to write the truth

He's supposedly not a very nice person, Kaz.

What he is though, is a fair and brilliant writer.

You have evidence of this of course?

You have evidence they didn’t?

 

[blueparrot]

Sorry mate i disagree.

If it is true.

Then what more evidence do you really need to believe, that the OTT punishment was deliberately orientated to assisting the Rags Champions League qualification this Season .

Makes no difference whether its the next 2 or the next 2 we qualify for either way it would be next season 5th would qualify.

I really don’t know why people are arsed as you whether it’s “next two years they qualify” or “next two years 2020/21 and 2021/22”. It’s really the least important thing going on at the moment.

It is, but it’s a pretty straightforward thing for them to get right. If I was the club, I’d be seeking clarification on it and getting them to do a public revision to the statement. Anything to make them look less competent, every little helps ;)

Would you really be surprised though Marvin ?

I would be more inclined to believe CAS got it right.

The wording is perhaps a little unclear ...

"... sanctioned with exclusion from the next two seasons of UEFA club competitions for which the club would qualify ..."

"from the next two seasons of UEFA club competitions" suggests that the punishment relates to two consecutive seasons. Remove "the next" and that would be a lot clearer, I suspect a simple error and they mean "should the club qualify".

Martin? He's a good bloke. Worked with him for four or five years. Great writer, good taste in music and a good laugh.

Laughable how they made it in such a way to help the Rags qualify for the Champions League this Season.

If the Rags finish 25 points behind in 5th

You can guarantee there will be a retrospective 30 point deduction by the Premier League this Season.

Meaning Rags automatically qualify for the Champions League .

Meaning we would not even start our ban until we actually qualify next season.

The Ban could go on for a few years if we fail to qualify.

Horrible,nasty,malicious bastards.

Apologies for the language.

Right now i am apoplectic with rage.

Injustice.

Youre apoplectic about a scenario that is entirely in your own imagination. Relax

Point being UEFA have obviously got wind that Gill,cough,cough,the Premier League will follow suite and sanction us points this season.The points sanction will be just enough for us to finish outside European places and nudge the Rags from 5th,to 4th.Meaning we dont qualify for Europe this anyway.

The 2 year ban become a 3 year Ban.

Not if we win on Sunday. Also you’re veering into tin foil territory there a bit.
