That was me. People liked it so I'm owning that one, the Shed Seven view not so popular.

It was a great shout & you should be proud to shout about it from the rooftops...

Obviously a conspiracy by the league to keep Luton and Burnley up.

Some of the argument's that Forest and Everton have come up with are nonsense.

If Forest and Everton have broken the rules throw the book at them. I don’t think anyone has sympathy for them. For Forest I don’t get how they were able to do what they did without the rules being broken. But it’s more how about Man City. Because if you’re going to do the likes of Forest and Everton you better send Man City back to the Stone Age with the penalty they should get.

Everton didn't choose the best day for sympathy on here.

For all Purslow's faults, he managed to keep the FFP inspectors happy - as he was involved in writing most of the rules!

I think it is Ludacris to let Chelsea and Man City buy the success they have bought in the past 20 years and then throw the book at clubs Like Forest and Everton

There is obviously some deal where the media has agreed not to mention the Man Citeh case.
This in many ways is more worrying.

Forest's business just seems gratuitous, there's got to be something else going on there. I've no idea what though, Greek shipping magnates are known worldwide for their unimpeachable character.

Well they haven’t have they? Citeh have 115 charges, which annoyingly means it’s taking a long time to conclude. But presumably they will have the book thrown at them.

It just feels like football is starting to lose its way. I get there needs to be financial rules to protect clubs from themselves to an extent, but the authorities are creating chaotic situations. There’s every chance appeals to any deductions will have to be heard after the season has ended.

Coupled with the VAR chaos and the joy being sucked out of being at the game, it’s just alienating people. Also, just reading what that Reading owner is doing to the club and the despair of their fans - it’s really grim. The authorities do nothing to protect clubs from really terrible owners.

Their business since coming up to the PL has stunk. Charlatans like Lingard, Shelvey and Aurier been given insane wages. In hindsight they would have been better off giving Cooper a more modest budget and gradually improve the team.

And might have gone down after a season. I understood why they did it but thought they must have been at least aware of FFP.
