A ten point deduction will probably relegate Forest and leave it open for (at least one of) the promoted teams to escape.

On the prices coming down point, I fear it won’t happen sadly: the only thing that will make prices come down is if they start to struggle to sell out. Logically the main thing that’ll cause that if there’s a deterioration of the quality of the league overall and/or state of the economy being such that people literally cannot afford to attend (arguably at that latter stage already)
I always thought the people slagging of levy probably weren't proper spurs fans , we were on our knees when he came in , now the best stadium in the world and a very well run club ....:
If that’s the case the other established clubs won’t like it and the rules will change. Nobody will let us be top dog. That’s not how it works unfortunately.
The transfer market is dead so I am taking that as a sign a lot of clubs aren’t in a great position. Come 1 July that might change though if they spent big 3 financial years ago though and it drops away for the FFP period.
"Lionel - I'll give you a tour of the Stadium and the Training Ground. But first - let me take you through the accounts"
Its supply and demand though, take away the demand and Clubs with Money aren't going to pay Stupid money if they dont have to - Take the Gallagher situation , the Chavs want up to £50 million this window, we must be one of the few clubs that can afford that but Levy is not Stupid as we have the upper hand and if he really is for sale I reckon we get it done for about £35 million , where as had plenty of other clubs been flash with cash then they would have got closer to £50 million.
Has anyone noticed that it’s impossible to discuss it with fans of other clubs. They are all so defensive or passive aggressive about the issue.
So, Sarr at say £12m was 2.5 years into his 5year contract (Let’s say).
So, his value on New Contract (for these dynamics) is £6m across his 6.5year Contract, about £920k per season.
Interesting.
Obviously nothing as yet proven against City and untIl then they are entitled to the presumption of innocence and that is correct. With that in mind i thought for our FA Cup tie we should show solidarity and point out nothing is yet proven
How about this on the night as a song of support for our beleaguered treble winners
116 charges on the City board
116 charges on the City board
And if one of these charges
Turns out to be fraud
There’d be 115 charges on the City board
115 charges on the City board
115 charges on the City board
And if one
I hope you can see where I’m going with this as I can’t be arsed to type out 116 verses
The above is clearly only my opinion before City put an army of lawyers on my case lol

Newcastle fans crying wolf about FFP is hilarious. What did they honestly expect after yo-yoing between the Premier League and The Championship, not playing in any European competition for a decade, and then spending £300m without any real sales bringing funds in?
This whole "FFP is there to keep the rich richer and top teams at the top" is bollocks. The likes of Spurs and Liverpool have gone about it correctly. Selling players for top value and spending what they can, within their means. Remove that and we'll end up with clubs in even worse positions trying to spend to keep up.

Woolwich, City, United, Villa, Chelsea, Everton and Forest is about half the Premier League membership, and it is the Premier League that makes the rules (and can change them).
They are not going to allow administrators that work for them to kill their clubs, they will just beat up the weak and poor.
Everton and Forest plus any other club such as Wolves , who are admittedly only rumoured to be at risk should be able to take legal action one would assume against the PL . I would imagine something along the lines of malicious prosecution would apply
They just want their trillionaire owners to be able to spend what they like. That is it really.
It’s hilarious isn’t it. They were ecstatic to get them richest owners on the planet and now they can’t spend all the money. They did however raise £57m last year with a share issue (like ENIC’s £150m one that’s not been fully spent) so could do that again.
Might be wrong but I think there is a limit on how much an Owner can fund the club via share issue in FFP.
Football regulator will be in place soon. Unless the new Labour government cancel it. Might keep a lid on this financial stuff.
We need some regulation. If there was none the Middle East would take over .

I think it's a calculated gamble from Forest, a fine / points deduction vs almost certain relegation.
