Loads of clubs (including mine) have been docked points because of shit management but there wasn’t any “Stop punishing fans” bollocks then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it could happen, I'm sure Leeds and West Ham will be leading the charge looking to get into the Champions League by earning it LOLZ~!

In all honesty I really doubt it as what rules have they actually broken? Coventry were docked points because they entered administration and that’s defined in the rules that deductions will happen. I don’t think there is anything that says you’ll be docked for wanting to make more money, it’s just when you don’t have money is the problem!

Even if a rule was broken, the PL would be too chicken to dock points, they would issue fines. And Spurs are over 1 billion in debt, what would another £100k do to them?Florentino Perez has said it still exists, and contracts are in place with all teams so it is a matter of when. The project is on standby. And with the amount of money being proposed, I believe it will happen at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh definitely, but probably after more consultation with the fans, deals with UEFA struck etc. This was a PR disaster, so I doubt it will happen in the same way/format if it comes back around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted April 22, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted April 22, 2021 I just saw this about the German system. Really interesting and I think it’s a great model which is why we’ll never see it in our top leagues  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
