Apoints reduction would penalise the fans who were innocent in all of this, i prefer a three year ban from playing in Europe this would acheive many aims. They would lose the ability to attract top players , they would be faced with transfer requests from their best players, they would lose all the revenue that Europe brings and lastly there would be an adventage for a lot of clubs to play in Europe who wouldn't normally get the opportunity, they would automatically become more attractive to better players.
At the very least the “fit and proper owner” test should be brought into play As these are all limited companies it would be appropriate if the directors were disqualified for a number of years
Loads of fans from loads of clubs have suffered due to mismanagement by ownership. It wasn't their fans' fault either. The 6 clubs involved shouldn't get a free pass just because they're not Bolton, or Bury. A few seasons in the lower leagues won't be too bad, they'll get over it. Their fans can blame the owners - not implementation of punishment.

I think a lot of credit must go to the real fans of the clubs in question to come out so passionately over this.The people responsible should be punished for this and their greed not the inocent. I could say there but for the grace of God go I/we. It could have been our club if our owners were the same. Hopefully they are not. The fans of these clubs have stood shoulder to shoulder with the rest of the football family to kill this abomination. I salute them.Let's just target the blame on the guilty.I see your point but the fans of these clubs have been happy enough to enjoy the success brought about the largesse of their wealthy owners for the best part of 2 decades. Now that those same wealthy owners have screwed up they can suffer the consequences of that for a couple of seasons (at least).Exactly. As football fans we all live and die by the decisions the owners of our clubs make. That's not just the managers they choose or the players they buy, it's everything. If you break the rules, you get punished.

League's been 'suspended' (hopefully over an active volcano). Milan hilariously withdrew literally one minute before it was suspended. Wankers.
Quote from: VILLA MOLE on April 20, 2021, 10:42:53 PMi am pleased it looks like it is going to fail . but i wish they would not pretend that the premiership is all fair and dandy . The whole distribution of money still needs looking at down the pyramid. I'm not sure, I reckon we probably have the wealthiest second tier, third tier, fourth tier, fifth tier and sixth tier of any national football structure on the planet.I'd rather they gave more to communities or to developing leagues in impoverished countries if they want to redistribute cash. Let the money do something good.Rochdale don't need to be paying players five grand a week any more than Man City need to be paying them a hundred times that.

I am willing to bet my right nutsack:There will be no punishment handed down to the teams "football needs them too much"The media wankathon over the teams will carry on as if nothing happened.All of the CEO's that resigned form that ECA board will be allowed back in. After all they created the champions league closed shop as it is now
