    It's definitely not fair mate but my opinion would've been the save for that.

    Two wrongs don't make a right

    It's just my opinion :emoticon-0148-yes:

    So 5 of those teams have a chance of winning a competition in the next few weeks that they don't want to be in and actually signed up not to be a part of,ok then lets have a drink and forget about it.

    That's great, but unfortunately you'd soon have realised the intention was to stay in the prem and play the super league on Wednesday nights

    Whether you like it or not mate, world football would miss Manchester United and Liverpool. And, to an extent, Arsenal. Daft to pretend otherwise.

    Not so much Chelsea and definitely not Man City and Spurs, but the others, 'fraid so.

    The did want to be in it.. I'm surprised people still haven't realised that.

    The people involved need to be punished personally imo or removed and changes put in place like new legislation to prevent the threat of it ever resurfacing.

    That's my view and it's just my view :emoticon-0148-yes:

    How?


    I agree that supporters who essentially prevented this should not be made to pay but something has to happen to the owners?

    Money is the only thing. Taking money from united wouldn't affect supporters, believe it or not, the vast majority of us don't spaff off every weekend because we're top of some finance league.

    Yeah but they’re not big enough to matter, so therefore it’s sound apparently.

    You can add Bury, Bolton, Wigan and Sheff Weds to that list and plenty of others who’ve had to stand and watch as their bent owners ****ed them over and the authorities punished the club, and the owners ran away.

    Exactly mate.

    No point in people saying they wouldn't be missed because it's bollocks, they would.

    Yup, I agree, and what makes the Dover situation even worse and the link I didn't put up, a number of clubs were subject to the same fines for the same reasons. Dover were the only ones who had the bolloxs to say fook you and still refused to play, hence why their punishment was harsher than the rest. Basically they were bullied by the governing body.

    There are many, many examples. I’ll even go so far as to use Pompey as an example.

    Clubs have faced very harsh penalties for lesser crimes, with absolutely no thought for the fans.

    Leeds were huge, forest were huge etc. Football has to be the priority.

    There is absolutely no reason for this to be different, just because the clubs are the big six. What they tried to do is wreck the entire game pretty much.

    If they were to relegate any of the big six, can they make sure it's only to the Championship, we really don't want them down in League One, no matter how much they think they are special, thanks kindly.

    No genuine football fan wanted to see these clubs leave the league pyramid that’s the entire point of the uproar.

    It was their owners actions who made that a possibility though, as they didn’t give a **** about the pyramid. Not one single **** was given.

    Just a thought, but say the clubs are punished on such a way that the fans are too, so the owners say lets join the super league afterall? Maybe the fans say OK **** the premier league and the lot of you let's go..
