Barnsley and Middlesborough threatening to sue the EFL if we aren't punished to their satisfaction seems a waste of time. If an independent tribunal finds us not guilty how can they hold EFL responsible?

Like the Tevez thing in 2007. West Ham were given an unprecedented hefty fine, but that wasn't a punishment that suited Sheffield United. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know the reason mate but if it's an independent tribunal what's the point ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Was gonna say, 12 point deduction for Admin isn't it? Might not be the only club in danger too. Wouldn't be surprised to see others go, whether they'll be before end of season though remains to be seen. No doubt this throws another spanner in the works for us somehow though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardiffowl06 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Imagine if we're deducted points and teams falling into administration save us from relegation. The EFL have f**ked up the governance of the game and are making a right mess of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 31 minutes ago, PARKOWL said: with no promotion or relegation from the premier league, they would go their separate ways and no money will filter down, Leagues 1 and 2 would be dead within 2 years and the Championship would be down to the 15 - 20 teams that have survived but will be no better than watching the lower scotish leagues IMO I think there will still be demand for English football and under the right leadership EFL could make much more of its product, rather than hanging onto the coat tails of EPL begging for scraps. Furthermore, with no relegation, the value of EPL diminishes. Truth is, both need each other to a similar degree, difference is the EFL negotiate a shitty deal year on year and allow EPL influence in running the league, i.e. accepting parachute payments, while punishing other clubs trying to compete....hence we're debating in this thread waiting on an outcome for EFL trying to punish us for having the cheek to try and compete. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
